So who's coming then? Doing my wedding rehearsal at 11am, then shooting over for my motor's first show since the rebuild. Looking forward to it

Again, focus on the track or you'll end up in the sea

Has been lately back home, last week wasn't too bad. But the damp weather does make the track a little more entertaining

FIRE!

Meh, was totally worth it! Had a laugh, had a new motoring experience, drove a new track, saw some friends and met some new people, had a good show.

Loved it and would defo go back.

AJC- As said, you guys did well and it is an eye opener isn't it? Bet your a zombie today, people think shows are a doddle, but the planning and effort beforehand and the stress on the day really ruin you.....but it paid off, was a belter mate. Well done to all!

Aye mate, totally! I'm counting down the minutes before a revitalising chippy dinner!....past week weeks has killed me, no end in sight yet

But was alright, car was on flatbed within a couple of hours of phoning them. Dean gave me a lift to my folks, robbed my old mans car, and arrived in southwest just after 1am, car was a few miles away. So by the time i was unpacked and settled, he turned up.

Job jobbed

LOL!! No worries. Tricky needed much more than just your fuel in the end as his car ended up on track the rest of the day with the only break being for the 2 XR races and dinner time.

Neil's fault for not telling him which can it was!
