Whilst the hardcore, hardtop brigade stayed on for some sideways fun. :lol: :lol: The marshalls packed up and headed for home to leave the track empty but for the 2 lone survivors sliding about to their hearts content.

No mention of my custom ICE installation???

Good write up mate - just a pity I could stay up any longer on the Sunday night.

Great write-up Mr.R :thumbsup

Completely forgot about Le bobé until I read about it there! Definitely the phrase of the night! :lol: (with "rough love" obviously being the phrase of the next day!)

I've started on the video editing (thanks Shug) and should have it done shortly. Took loads of footage and trying to get some shots of most peoples cars, not to mention my waving arms, although not in Greg R stylee :)

Will post when finished - had Shug and I laughing at it yesterday though and brought back some very good memories :D

Just wanted to say thanks for a gr8 day. Trip home was interesting in the pissing rain and wind, but my heated waistcoat came in handy.

The lower wishbone dropping off up the long straight and the minor electrical fire added to the challenges of the day and getting home.

Think the worst bit though was that the STIG, who sold me the helmet, must have recently cleaned the visor with fairy, so just by carlisle, having chosen the a69 for a traffic free run home, the rain starts, then the sealing strip gets wet, then at 80mph my helmet fills with big bubbles, they burst and i can't see.... :wink:

and to think the stig uses fairy!!!

thanks again, anytime you are short brian and i are keen. afterall i do have lotus seats in it.

drive safely.

brian
