Apologies to those who helped but I have forgotten to mention.

Once again, thanks to all those who helped, those knowing the jobs to be done to get the day going, lessen my work load and organization.

Congratulations to Neil and Stewart and everyone at AROCA.  A brilliantly run day.  Here's a sample for you of the comments running on the MX5 forum today.

It was a fantastic day, heaps of laps and very few problems.
Well done to all.

Once again the Alfa boys have out done themselves!! The weather gods smiled down on us and the Island was as fantastic as ever.

yes randy is right the alfa guys really ran the day to perfection... like clockwork, everything was perfect. plenty of laps, even with the large number of cars entered.

What a great day, could not ask for a better run event. Perfect weather, a good number of runs, just great.
This was my first run at the track with the MX5 club and had a ball. Thanks to everyone for their help and advice during the day, much appreciated.

Merry Christmas,  Phil

Not exactly sure where Rob Dale is actually going, probably pointing out where the apex is for Tony Hawker.

Nice three wheeling, Ray.

Wonder if Sheldon can lean that taxi any further over.

Neil I was following Tony when Rob was parked there. what people dont kno is Robs mobile phone was ringing, he was just getting off the track to take the call. It was miss Daisy asking Rob to organise Jim for her ride. (sorry Jim couldnt help myself).
