As I drive a Peugeot 107 quite regularly it was great fun seeing the C1's in action.

Yea that was us! We have a 4hr race at Snett on Saturday next week.

Oh dear if I'm in alot of your videos that must have meant me or my team mate was in the way! Apologies if so. It's not a bad little car but with 68hp isn't exactly fast.

Nice one Dan, Vimes and I are racing on the same weekend in our Caterhams. I'm number 56 and Captain is 117. If you see us in the paddock come and say hi. What is your race number?

I'll definitely come and say hi. I looked into Caterhams and was going to go that route until a friend of mine wanted to give the C1s a go. Would be good to meet you both and find out a bit more about them. We are car 321.

We might be along for testing but the msv testdays are laughably expensive especially when we need to pay 70 quid for an extra driver. Are you guys racing both days? I haven't seen the timetable yet.

Yeah testing is not cheap but quite important in Caterhams as the field is so tight. We have quali and race 1 on Saturday and race 2 on Sunday. We are both in different classes too so plenty of action. Timetable is here;

Still a bit surprised at the one hour quali for the c1s. It that because all drivers have to set a time?

No, its because it takes them an hour to do what other cars can in 20 minutes :D

Thanks all. Be good to meet you guys. A quali lap of snetterton 300 for us is about 2.40 so if every driver has to 3 laps to qualify for the race and most teams have 4 drivers with driver changes its pretty much an hour! Ha ha. So Mr O Clock is right. The main issue we have is getting a clear lap with all 50 other cars on track at the same time.

I might need that ticket off you Captain if mine dont turn up this week!

The pole sitters in my class will be doing low 2:09s, hope there aren't too many C1's in my group for Friday testing :lol:
