top weekend thanks to evertyone that turned up to race watch andl to dave and brian (that's right isnt it) for marshaling most of the day on sunday

Ian · **Posted:** Sun Jul 29, 2007 10:00 pm

yeah thanks everyone, I had a good night Friday and day Saturday.

I learned that Ste doesn't see the funny side when you drive a truck over his pride and joy, sorry Ste :oops:

I also learned that when Glenn says: "so how easy is it to jump your truck?" Never ever, ever oblige him by saying: "here have a go."

I don't think anyone was there to see the Payne he subjected it to.

gutted I couldn't stay for Sunday. :cry:

I'm sure the BBQ wasn't as much fun without pikie Ian stealing all the food.

So where did everyone finish? Did Glenn and Ste make it into the A?

I cleared a space in the fridge for those hoping someone would bring them back.

Ste · **Posted:** Mon Jul 30, 2007 5:16 pm

Ive got them now!

I did much better on suday, making it into the A, and leading it for a short few laps! I was suffering from a severe case of snapped rear plate and severely damaged gearbox housing!

Glenn · **Posted:** Mon Jul 30, 2007 8:00 pm

It was a great race, I managed to snatch 3rd close to the end. Stuffed my start again which ruled me out for the win. I finally have the speed to keep up with you guys. I can't believe how much punishment the cars got. I am the only who didn't break anything.......of my own......

A big thanks to you guys. I had a great time. Thanks to everyone who put in the time and effort without expecting a thing in return. Tom for the trailer and Rick for just about everything else, including the loan of the motor and pinion. Thanks to Ian for the beers. :wink:

Just a shame Joey could not give Ste a night with a 16 yo. :shock:

dirty boy.

lol! My breakages for the weekend - one gearbox housing, one thrust-race, one motor plate, one rear pivot block, one ball joint, one ball cup, one wing and two mini-lst diffs sniff sniff

anyone who didnt make it, missed out big time!

Rick · **Posted:** Tue Jul 31, 2007 10:28 am

one upright and one ball stud on the b4 and 2 cv pins on the MGT not bad

Tom · **Posted:** Tue Jul 31, 2007 12:31 pm

My car survived quite well. The wing is trashed now, cracked a rear shock tower, snapped a front wishbone, fried the FET wire. Bit most important!!! fixed my speedo. UBER power all the way through the race to the finish WOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
