Never thought of my car as 'slightly more than epic' but thanks for the thumbs up, hope you join the club soon, if your local ( Birmingham ) happy to help with info and hints if you need.

Have never seen so many cars with cling film on lol
Virtually no grit at Brunty this year. I've had more stones ping off my helmet at Silverstone or Donington than hit the car yesterday; they had made a very significant improvement on clearing the track of debris.
What a shame that ASDA attempted to put a cloud over the event with the nonsense about CRB/DBS checks. I only wish I'd realised on the day what was in the waiver forms and how they were being processed.
It's probably a good job that they will not be organising this event next year, as the waiver forms this year were considerably more invasive and onerous than previous years, and the lack of secure processing of these has opened up ASDA to astonishing risk of prosecution for many years to come.
I have here samples of the waiver forms, most of which Susie realised were asking for too much info, and managed to prevent punters fully completing and therefore limiting the exposure to ASDA as a corporation, but also to us as a club and private individuals. However, some are fully completed as ASDA clearly intended. What's wrong with that, you may ask? Well.... since such huge store was placed on having CRB/DBS checked people in the cars to guard against the ludicrous perceived risk of a driver at 100mph+ causing moral harm to a minor in a 1 minute lap, they might have thought about what to do with the reams of PII recorded on the forms by all the clubs. When ASDA representatives collected the money periodically through the day, they specifically refused to collect the completed waivers, stating that they were 'ours to keep'.
So - we have the situation where we and the other clubs have reams of personal data on hundreds of children (and adults), including names, addresses, postcodes, date of birth, phone numbers, signatures; all positive gold to the paedophiles the H&S fools at ASDA were looking to keep out.
At least we still have them, and I can deal with them appropriately. What did the other clubs do with them? Bin them at the circuit? Take them away to bin at home? Who actually has them now.... They must be securely disposed of, not dumped in a public bin, but whilst we have a stack of them here, we can't influence the other 90% of the forms in existence from the other gates.
It's a serious breach of data protection, contains masses of data likely to put hundreds of children at risk, (and adults of identity theft), and sufficient to have proper conversations with the ASDA legal department. I will do that via my contacts at the ICO next week.
For the record, I have the sheets in a safe, SportsMaserati and members at the event are not at risk. I will be handing them directly to the ICO in due course for them to decide what action to take.
You may take from this that my strongly held view is that when a clot treads on a charity day with heavy boots in a half-hearted style at the last moment, causing nothing but grief, they need to stand up and take responsibility for their frankly stupid and unnecessary intervention.
