So many french cars and jap cars at these ford events its hard to keep track of them all.
If you were in a cossie it would have been easier to identify you
Lambchop, no worries mate, at least if something does go wrong, i'll have someone to blame

did 210miles on track and used around 90-100 quids worth of fuel
max, that was a great battle

- came in early as we'd chanced it long enough!Best bit for me was when i was behind you on the first lap of a session, and totally lost it at about 80mph and went spinning across the grass, we didnt catch it on camera

pmsl! come to think of it andy is a bad omen also! lets look at the facts
1. went out with linsay who's gearbox broke
2. went in mickeys rst and it blew a water hose
3. went in russ' evo and it had a sensor problem!
I think i have a case here to not be the worst omen!

We had a good doo didnt we,, i was pleased at how well the clio kept up considering it was in full road spec,, you did past me in the last session,, but i was taking it v.v easy as my near side tyre was about to blow out- came in early as we'd chanced it long enough!

Thought Id slip in a quick "big up the following" post while we are on the subject.......
Well, im sure people have noticed I had a great time from my responses in other threads, so just thought Id take a couple of minutes to thank the people who made it such a good weekend.
Firstly Si B for the lift up and back, was totally last minute, I was meant to be building a workshop this weekend but the digger was needed elsewhere at the last minute, so I didnt even know for certain myself I was going till friday. So I really did (unintentionally) mess him about a bit by stepping up to go so late on.
Really great guy to spend a weekend with, good safe drive on the way up, exciting laps of the track, and good company too, not to mention cooks a pretty decent bacon sarnie.
Nige (aka Sketch), Si's brother, dont really know Nige that well, only had the pleasure of meeting him a few times before, but he totally made me feel welcome and took me out for some really good laps, really good fast and safe driver, if you ever get the chance of a ride in with him you would be nuts to turn it down IMHO
Dave / Helen / Ian / Greg / AndyR / Nutter / Dingy / JC / etc - Fantastic people to spend an evening with talking bollocks and having a few beers etc which to me was as much of a part of the event as the track was.
The organisers, fantastic show, SO well run, track session went like clockwork and yet the whole thing seemed so laid back and casual too, difficult to achieve one of those things let alone both at once.
Everyone else who was there and just generally behaved themselves, showed good etiquette on track and had a great time, almost no exceptions to this, literally everyone I spoke to was sound and although ive since heard of a couple of people being idiots, they were certainly in the minority as I saw none of it.
Great weekend, really looking forward to next year

Well done to everyone involved in the organising and running of such a great weekendTHANK YOU
Greg, Iain, Chop & I spent the weekend camped with the Derbyshire group and we could'nt have been better looked after.
Rachael's cooking was brilliant. Thanks Rach your a star keeping 4 hungry Scottish lads fed in addition to the rest of the Derbyshire group, you deserve a medal for your effort.
Good to catch up with everyone in what can only be described as a relaxed friendly atmosphere, its kinda cool when internet personas and difference of opinions are put aside and everyone just gets on and has a laugh together. Cheers to everyone that made it the weekend it was, brilliant

took a trafic cop out ,asked if he would catch me he replied no chance
i asked for this in writing as he left the car checking 4 bald tyres and my tax disc
something to dwell on
