The situation at Santa Pod was unprecedented with access to the track.
We were wise to avoid the lengthy queues.
We were pretty gutted to have to make the decision to leave it.
However.
Unbeknown to me, my lovely little lady had emailed Santa Pod and explained why we couldn't get there and she asked if instead they could send us a couple of tickets for a lesser event
We've both been going there for over 30 years. A good few of those before we met.
But yesterday a plain white envelope arrived in the post and I had no idea at all.
Inside were two tickets from Santa Pod to make up for missing the FIA finals.
But Santa Pod didn't send us two tickets for a lesser event.
No. They sent us all weekend passes for 3 days racing at The UK national finals thus weekend !!!
How about that!! What a great gesture from The Pod !!!
Decked me !!!
So here we are, both of us worn out and very happy after today's racing.
A rwyb event but also a lot of racers testing and setting up for the heats and finals over the next two days.
Just so happy atm.
Thank you so much Santa Pod what a great bunch of people!!!
Can't wait for tomorrow..... seeing the times being laid down today it's going to be awesome
