Testing my drifting skills today on a damp Silverstone in Qualy for our 2 races this weekend.

This was the last corner on the last lap so decided to send it, through pure luck, not skill, she just held before spinning out, I really thought we were going round 😬

Here we go for our first practice session.

4 days at Silverstone to look forward to in our Lotus Formula Junior for the Silverstone Festival this weekend which is always a great event.

55 cars on our grid for the races Saturday and Sunday so should be some awesome racing 👍

Big day, Elise engine rebuild just finished after blowing itself to smithereens at Snetterton a few months ago.

Where better to shake it down than at the world famous Goodwood Circuit, I have spent many a day spectating here but this is my first time on the actual track 👍

Just heading out for our race yesterday at Donington Park, one of my favourite tracks 👍

An onboard from the weekend with the last lap pass which got me third in class and my first FJ Trophy. Really shows what a stunning track Cadwell Park is too 👌

So after a truly disastrous qualifying yesterday where I couldn’t get a clear lap we battled through the field to get our first Formula Junior trophy with a last lap pass for third in class 😀

Race 2 today so let’s see if we can do even better.

Just arrived at Cadwell Park.

This should be the perfect 3 days for the 2nd round of Formula Junior championship this weekend.

Really can’t wait to take our Lotus FJ around Cadwell Park, arguably the country’s most stunning track.

Should be a match made in heaven 👌

Formula Junior Snetterton Race Report!

Hi All,

I've just scribbled down the below race report from Snetterton with my quickest lap video, which doesn't look very quick 🙄

Cheers,

Qualified P11 out of 24 cars so I’ll take that as still learning the car, have to say she really is beautiful to drive, mad to think this little car has been racing for over 60 years.

Just need to figure how to get it off the line well now 😬

Here we go, first race of the season at a rather wet and windy Snetterton, can’t wait to start our first Formula Junior season in our 1961 Lotus 20/22 though 👍

Now I just need the rain to stop 🤞

Big day on Saturday, finally met another of my Motorsport Heroes, Jackie Oliver, what a lovely guy👌

Been trying for 3+ years to get Jackie Oliver and Jacky Ickx to sign a couple of sill plates from a GT40, the 2 race winners from the greatest LeMans win ever, job finally done👍

[iLounge Racing @IloungeRacing]

As a big Lotus fan this made my day, being allowed to sit in their Stunning Type 66 Can Am recreation, being showed around by Clive Chapman, really doesn’t get any better 👍

Now I just need to find a spare £1 Million

Certainly nowhere else I’d rather be this weekend than at Goodwood for the 81st Members Meeting 😍

Anyone else here?

Bugger, think I’ll stick to sim racing 🙄

[iLounge Racing @IloungeRacing]

Season 2024 starts today, getting my eye back in with the Elise at Snetterton before starting our first full season here in our 1961 Lotus Formula Junior in 2 weeks time, can’t wait 😀

Main mission today, learn how to heel and toe😬

Doing my little bit to help the planet, going to run my cars on Coryton Classic 80 sustainable fuel going forward 👍

£4.65 a litre it’s not cheap but that should come down over time as more people start using it, perfect for older cars as no ethanol in it 👍

[iLounge Racing @IloungeRacing]

So tonight is race night for our inaugural NASCAR series on iRacing, starting at Daytona for some Super Speedeay action, we have 30 drivers registered which is great news, if you are not racing you can follow the fun from 9pm tonight live on YouTube 👍
