Making progress towards my target of getting my team an entry in the Le Mans 24 Hours race.
Today has been a mixture of crunching numbers and also undertaking some exercise as the Le Mans 24 Hours is not only a test of endurance for the drivers but also the Team Principle, Team Manager, Race Engineers and Mechanics.
As I found to my cost in 2005 at Silverstone the key to a successful endurance race is to prepared, organised and very disciplined.
Time management is key which is why I have taken the step to scale back some of my political activities such as coming off the Brecks partnership and the Labour East Regional Board.

All go again
Been a very busy week indeed.
Monday I had a seat fitting in the Formula Ford racecar that I have been kindly lent to do testing in.
Was rather nevous that the clutch would be to hard to push with my bad leg put the engineer and a friend who races in the British GT Championship explained the method for racecar control is not as hard as I throught.
Was at a reception on tuesday night for the Norwich North Bye-election campaign some of the people there did not seem pleased to see me and serveral Gibson supporters even refused to shake my hand.
On wednesday had the fun of Chairing a Council meeting which was good and manged to get through the adoption of a Child Protection and Vulnerable adults policy.
Thursday was also a busy day as I attended the Building Britian's future event at Cambridge Guildhall and talked with the Chancellor about tax breaks for career changers wanting to do training and education.
Also spoke in the debate about the need for UK to create wealth by becoming a world leader in innovative engineering solutions.
