EMRA Awards night...

Last night we all gathered at the Sketchley Grange Hotel in Hinckley for the EMRA Annual Dinner and Presentation of Awards. And what a night it was! We drank, we danced, we chatted and we collected a barrow-load of trophies!

Presenting the awards were racing stars from past and present...John Reynolds, Tom Sykes, Cal Crutchlow and Paul Young. A great line up I'm sure you'll agree. So how did we do? Well, we pretty much cleaned up...here's a list of what we picked up:

Formula 400 Championship - Leon,

Formula 400 3rd place - Mike,

Superstock 600 Championship - Leon,

Formula 400 Invitation (Paul Vincent Trophy) - Leon,

EMRA Clubman of 2008 - Leon...

Amazing! And Leon became best mates with Tom Sykes by the end - with Tom quoted as saying 'Not you again Leon!'...how funny!

We ended up with eight trophies on our table by the end of the evening - and enough metal to build a replica of the Golden Gate Bridge! It really was a night to remember for everyone. And to top it all off, we did pretty well in the raffle afterwards too. It doesn't get any better, although I'm not quite sure what to do with my new 'Motion Photo Frame'. Anyway, well done again to everyone involved, especially to Leon for delivering such terrific results throughout the season. We certainly deserved this night out!

I will upload some pictures soon, but in the meantime, I created this logo to sum up how this season has been for us all:

And here, as promised, are some choice pictures:
