 Good Morning,
with the first sprinkling of snow here in Nottingham, it is a bit chilly but time for the final Pitlane Review

Pitlane Review ( Round 7)
As they say always expect the unexpected, so certainly we did not see the DNF or DNS issues appearing on this Round as the testing had seemed to go perfectly 
And the results also threw up some surprises which helped the mid field cars to catch up a little with the top runners.

Modern Endurance 24HRS
This class ran more or less to form, with the BMW V12 LMP of Savage GT again way down the road, with the AMG of Team Tatters and Mercedes CLK of RoadRunners again contesting 2nd and 3rd places respectively. 

Classic Le Mans
Similarly we saw the Ferrari 250GTO of Mountain View comfortably ahead of the field, with the AC Cobra of Bangers Racing in 2nd, but a welcome return to 3rd place for the Ferrari 250 GTO of BARacer . This time the Porsche 904 of Brumos RSR just nipping ahead of the Aston Martin DBR1 of RoadRunners.

Daytona
The next surprise was to see a come back for the Camaro 72 of Courtney Sport to finish 1st, with the two Lancia BMC's in 2nd and 3rd fron ALS Racing and Bangers Racing, definitely a break in form from recent Rounds. The De Tomaso of Bangers Racing had a surprisingly premature ending of the round which hopefully can be rectified before the final Round takes place. Similarly gearbox problems prevented a run of the Porsche 914/6 of Oaktree Racers, which hopefully can be fixed.

InterSeries
The Porsche 917/10 way ahead of the field again on this Round, very comfortable on this smooth wood track. The Alfa T33 seemed also to thrive on this Round to get 2nd and the Maclaren M6A of Brumos RSR making a return to the podium for 3rd position.
