Default Llandow today (mainly FAO Doug)

Not sure if anyone else was there from this forum today, couple of cool fords there though, Dougs RWD escos (the ex yorks rs one), a really nice XE engined mk1, and a bloke with a ludicrous amount of drift talent in a purple saphire.

Will try and get some pics up later when they are online.

Me and mongo had a great day despite early wheel bearing failure which had us out of action for most of the day till we got hold of all the tools and parts needed to sort it.

Just glad it happened now not at the ring!


Ive not ever been to llandow before and it really is a cracking little track


Doug, SO sorry i didnt recognise you from blackpool mate, but i was seriously pissed at the time

Doh, sounds like there are loads of people who missed out, worse still is you could have all helped us find the tools to change our wheel bearing, lol.
