Is this open to VX's?

[jonnyboy]

Looks ok that. Shame its at such a yawn inducing circuit though!

[bazMV6]

Given that this is a few days before my birthday, I'd definitely be interested - if we "black sheep" are allowed in?

[MAXR]

Yes VX's are allowed, just beware you may have to dodge rotten tomatoes though!...Having said that, VX's always seem to perform rather well on track against the Lotus boys. The track's not bad, but should be interesting if wet.
