Been @ Donington track day today and meet some fine people.

My first thankyou is to Steve Scott and the lads from A1 Rally Sport.

Was took out for some laps round Donington in his Escort Cosworth WRC what a car 430 ish BHP and what a driver was never scarred for one second.

All time dream come true been out in a really fast cossie and what a cossie to go out in for your first one well worth waiting for.

Sideway round every corner powersliding, braking hard i loved it and the launch in second from the pits was unreal THANKYOU Steve you are a Gent, the over two say thanks too.

Nice to meet some more Pf peeps Gav Dimmond and Marco top gents nice to meet you both.

To sum it up one of those days you will never forget

Cheers all

Take it Scotty fixed the Escy again & had some more fun

Glad to see you had a good day mate

James_RScos

Cheer paul was going really well BUT

about 11.00 the rear prop broke where it goes onto the diff and i thought that was game over OH NO NO NO NO him and marco went back to base and got another was back about 1.30 fixed it and straight out on track.

The sad bit of the day was when he was on the last run of the day with my mate in the car he was coming down the pit striaght and the Turbo(i think) let go was a shame and i was gutted for him but he(Steve) was smiling like all day when he was towed back in to the pits.

Paul it was fixed from Bedford yes mate, think it had sheared the diff bolts.

Also it had some brand new prop shafts fitted yesterday and after only six laps it broke the rear knuckle on it.

Then after about 2 1/2 hours of non stop taking passengers out the turbo let go.

Good to meet you today jimmy and your mates,

Was a good day other than the problems and i got a passenger ride again love that car.

Brasso

Went this mornin and seen the a1 car do a couple of laps, absolutely love that car. But then it broke as mentioned above so buggered off as there werent much else there to shout about. Wish I'd stopped for a bit now.

There was a bloke in a white 205 who was really throwin it into the corner on the pit straight. fair play he was well entertainin to watch.

I wasn't in it the time the turbo went, also i heard JC had some problems again with me not in the car

I will go Tuesday if Steve is going, as i cant just show up as i think Ben won't like it, he should be OK if i leave the car by security though.
