Dan I might have joined you but my M3 is having some station car park body mods seen to that day 
My old dad's birthday he introduced me to Snet over fifty years ago - indelible memories of blown Bentleys racing and drivers such as Roy Salvadori and Archie Scott-Brown (who only had one arm 
)
The circuit then - we used to watch from the outside of the Coram curve which is now a wide run off area!!
Evolution since:
The A11 still runs alongside what was the Norwich Straight.
And today following the upgrade a few years ago to the 200/300 options
An appropriate colour I think for what MB sh(rude)ly calls a bell end shape

love this track, will be the third time here, it does look awfully phallic (i think everyone notices this the first time they are there!... the straits of years gone by look ridiculously long!

wrote a huge long post out about the day, probably the longest essay ive written since leaving school.... what does my computer do? gets rid of the page saying 'the web page was not responding'. this is why i hate microsoft 
ill summerise in a few words now...
fully booked 150 cars
no driving because of bad fog until 10:30
3 sessions before lunch, big off going flat out from halfway round nelson and through bombhole, took a slightly too tight line and not heading for the chevrons over the blind crest, done it before fine, just messed it up this time, gave jmsimpo whiplash.
tyres reseated at local tyre place due to excessive grass/mud/stones in the tyre bead.
lunch
rain
lots of serious stuff left.
dry from 3 until 5:30, used a tank of fuel (except for the final 3 bars)
brilliant afternoon.
few beers in the pub after!
what i will say is i stuck a pair of federal 595 rsr's on the back in 255/40/17 to replace my 245/40/17 yoko ad08r's, was very impressed actually, esp for nearly half the price, £95 each instead of £170!
brilliant day, amazing track, you should go here if you havent!
