    Billy it’s Wales! Every forecast will be if you can’t see the little island by the hairpin, it’s raining.....if you can see the little island, it’s going to rain!

    The old circuit was pretty good but it’s far better since it was reopened in 2007 after it was reconfigured and a new pit complex was opened a year or so later.

    You need to communicate with either a flashing light or pre discussed smoke signals :p

    He did mention on here that he'd been told the signal was very poor at the track, if/when you see this though Bill, all the very best for this weekend mate, go kick ass :p

    Managed to speak to Billy at about 08.15 but it was a bad signal :rolleyes:

    Sounds like he managed to get a few dry sessions in yesterday but at times it was very windy.

    The organisers don’t know if today’s races will go ahead due to heavy rain and very strong winds forecast so there could be plenty of hanging around and no action.

    Hopefully the weather forecasters have got it wrong.

    Practice and qualifying completed. Heavy rain and wind has halted racing at the moment.... have to wait it out.

    PS: hobnobs delivered to the paddock and a very nice cup of tea provided by mrs Billy.

    Glyn, I’ve had a text off Billy saying that it ended up going ahead but really difficult conditions.

    That’s probably one of the best race circuits in the UK with probably the most radical weather conditions o_O

    Absolutely fantastic if the weathers good and the last place on earth you’d want to be if the weathers inclement :eek:
