Hello Adam,

Fantastic work you have put together there!

One slight mistake, from the "Top 10 Fastest Laps" I think is missing the following:
2005 - Dave Molyneux/Dan Sayle - DMR Honda - 116.044mph - 19.30.49 - Race B (First lap over 115mph and first under 20 minutes)

Yes you are right, not quite sure how that happend as the original list i have has him on there, top 10 list has now been ammended to be correct.
