I would like to say a big thank-you to everyone involved over the weekend, especially the many that responded to our requests for additional marshals, it was great to meet with you and put faces to names etc and hope to see you all back again soon at Snetterton.

Yes it was a little damp (for Snet!) over the weekend but it was a brilliant weekend from a racing aspect and for the way everyone all worked together as a team to make the event the success that it is now recognised to be over the past five years at Snetterton.

I would especially express my sincere appreciation to Simon Leith for providing the Marshal’s Prize Hot Laps in the Britcar BMW of which Pat Fairhead was the lucky winner. (pics follow)

Thanks also to Trevor Williams, Paul Robertson, Steve Panas, Pete Sparrow, Simon and everyone involved in the 2CV Racing Club for all the other items provided for those marshalling over the weekend such as the Friday BBQ, the goodie bags and also for providing the evening and early morning catering during the shift changeovers and which I must admit was extremely welcome at 02-15am at the end of one of my shifts. Also to Jez & Andy for the occasional shelter, coffee and humour as always! The 24hour radio coverage was also a superb idea – thanks to Martin and Fine Print for that.

The 2CV Racing Club at their Presentations in Tyrrell’s after the event asked me to pass on their real appreciation to everyone involved as marshals or as officials over the weekend for doing such a great job in such weather conditions and making it such a successful weekend. Club members made a spontaneous collection of £153.36 for the Motorsport Safety Fund as a gesture of their appreciation.

Thanks also to BARC and everyone involved upstairs, the MSV circuit staff and to Alex and his team at Red Rocket Recovery for all contributing to a superb event.

Roll on next year!!
