Great stuff, particularly the 'damp' shots, is that Westway?

I take it the Saloon guys had time to get onto wets? It's a great leveller anyway, fantastic to see Nick and Jason Cooper on the tail of the Astra and 206 etc.

Yeah it was as far as I could get again !

Wets for the Saloons means a set of road tyres with some tread rather than the worn/buffed road tyres they use in the dry. Nick runs the same Toyos wet or dry, but the wet ones have proper tread of decent depth compared to the buffed ones for dry use that would struggle to clear standing water.

As soon as it really chucked it down we did a quick wheel and set up change.
