What a great day, a 5.30 am start and a drive down to Goodwood for this charity event. The event is its 2nd year and is run by Mission Motorsport, the idea to help rehabilitate our troops and service personnel. The fun began when I entered the paddock, a voice called out "Your'e in Group 2 Mark" and pointed to the pit garages, wow a pit garage with my name above it, how cool is that!

Next was the track noise test........I was asked what the car can rev to, so I told the marshal 6K, "OK Sir, can you rev the car to 4.5k", I complied, "Sorry Sir, thats a fail" LOL. The limit for the track that day was 105db and my car hitting 128db did not quite cut it :D
No problem I was fully expecting this so I took the troops out for rides around the local roads, I did around 15 rides during the day and did not get back home until gone 8pm.
Here's some more pics from the day
