Qualifying

Neil 1st in class B 7th total!

Andy 6th in class starts in 22nd - had some issue in scrutineering and managed just 6 laps in Quali and has never driven Silverstone before!

Me - I managed just 2 laps as I too had scrutineering issues and then on my warm-up lap triggered my inertia switch cutting fuel. Had to park it and get towed back after the session
Good news is the 2 laps plus the green flag laps will get me my 3 laps allowing me to start the race I will start in 18th

Bring on tomorrow

Good work guys, what are the scrutineering problems?

Andy's fog light did not work and both of our battery cut offs only cut ignition not lights etc - was told to sort it or no race! Simon S was able to see that the earth just needed to be separated out and that did the job. Robin had to do a bit of re-wiring on Andy's car to sort the fog light.

cheers for the comments. will pass it on to the boys when they wake up.

Both Andy and Jamie had problems, but with massive help from robin, kelvin and simon, they both managed to get out to do enough to be allowed to race. Theres more pace in both of them for sure, as Jamie only managed 2 laps in a new car, and Andy had never driven the circuit, so only managed 6 laps.



I really enjoyed yesterday. I think the circuit flatters my car a bit, or it just doesnt have many of the corners that my car doesnt like. :lol:

I was praying for rain, as silverstone is like an ice rink in the wet, and i thought i would cope with that better than most, but alas it stayed dry. I had 6 SC honda's in front of me, and a few behind aswell. I reckoned i could have had a few of them if it had rained. Never mind, i will have a tough job keeping Steve williams behind me, so its looking like it could be a very close race.
