Thought I would let you see some of the pics I took today at Knockhill, it was a great days entertainment (as per the norm).

Beware i'm no photography buff and my camera's lens is not 6 foot long :lol:

Pit walk around, these were mostly taken on saturday morning, long before any damage lol

James Nash's Triple eight vectra in the middle of an engine re-built (no can bus here :lol:)

It was mate, however I must have been one of the only scots not cheering Gordon Sheddon on :o

I'm a Matt Neal fan through and through, closely followed by Paul O'Neil and then Andy Jordan (he knows how to handle the Vec now, just a shame he wasn't that good with it last year :lol:)

Honestly it's nothing like the circuits down your way, no pit garage's just gazeebo's and the public can nearly access all areas. Only time your not allowed in the work areas is when they are taking the cars into the holding area.

I was there on the saturday too and just wandering around saw, Matt Neal, Paul O'Neil, Gordon Shedden, Rob Collard, Dave Pinkney and Tim Harvey as they aren't as hidden away at Knockhill
