I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Slowly slowly catch the monkey, there are only so many things I can sell in at home in one month! Though you will be proud boys I managed to hold on to the ultimate ace of "Please, I will do salsa classes...".

I've currently got 2 Archos systems and 1 Sony so we should be sorted - which reminds me about the disk I'm missing for burning your wedding on to DVD later :oops:

Off to raid the warehouse!

So what was the tapping sound, Scott?

With the stuff we've been working on recently for the BiB et al, we could do a live video hookup from each circuit over the 3G network ... anyone remember the bits in Apollo 13 where they're playing "spirit in the sky" whilst floating stuff about the cabin? Well, we could be playing "the ace of spades" whilst barrel rolling down the main straight, live for the whole world to watch :-)

I doubt I'll have an in-car lashup for FF7, but could target getting one in Egor for the whole trip ... I'll see what I can sort out :-)

Cheers,
Robin

This is bloody ridiculous.

I had to rule out FF7, and indeed any more European trips, and now I have you bunch of twats getting all excited about punching donkeys.

Looks as if it could be a great trip, and it is also a lot shorter than FF with no Ring, but the concentration of four Trackdays one after the other is right up my street, and three of them I have not done before.

However, apart from lack of legs considerations, for the first time into Elise ownership, expense is rearing its ugly head. With Clare and Ian at University, plus just taking out a second mortgage to buy Clare a flat in Aberdeen, the cost of running tuttowers, petrol prices etc, the well is running dry, and Elise jollys have to be one of the first to suffer.

However I see that Ross was looking for a pax seat, and would share Hotels, fuel, ferries etc, and of course he could drive my car on track, and road as well if I got tired, so that could be a possibility.

Will have a word with Verian, and also Calypso who always looks after me well, and see what they think.

I'm not allowed, SWMBO has put her foot down, apparently we're suppose to be saving for a wedding. I thought it would be a great chance to meet you guys and be able to use the car properly. Gutted :( :(

Weddings are overrated, much more a woman thing. Use this "If you love me that much why do you need a ring and a ceramony (thats bloody god dam expensive) to show our comitment to one another. Surely if its strong enough we don't need to rush into wedding, just do it when moneys right" While thinking track days and road trips are more important, I wouldnt suggest saying this though :thumbsup
