Fireball or mine? I am not gutted (yet).
This was my first time at Gingerman. And I only got in 2, 15min sessions. Had a few hot laps though. Didnt get lap times only an ave sec/mi (56s per mile) - top speed achieved was 116mph - ave speed was 64mph. I was trying to pick up some line hints from Dave (SVT Focus) - he had some nice lines in areas that I wasnt going as fast as I could -- def. was faster after tailing him for a bit.
EDIT: I was out there for a Test/Tune on Wed the 12th.

We are thinking of running another test and tune before this season is over - prby a Wed if you are interested (Ill PM you when we know more).
I was testing out my pads and GPS system. Only got in about 18 mins of driving time
Unofficially I ran in the 1:42 range - overbraking and not using all the power. Setup felt good though - wish we got in one more session so I could push it more. By the end of our short 2nd I was pushing and going much faster. 
Logged 114 on the straight from 2nd to 3rd.
(Updated my software - so its supposed to read more real time with better MPH calc and pace settings - and I have to push the lap button every lap for it to count
I was hoping it would log as I passed that point (new programming might do that now too))
