  1. Was a up and down night for me first heat i pulled off with damage after 89 drove into the grey tyres and warped infront of me. 2nd heat i just took the lead the spun myself! So shuffled back again pulled off with damage. 3 heat was a win and quite comfy at that i knew i had the pace it was just about getting some luck. 4th heat i was starting to struggle with my hands and foot got spun and ended up 9th so not bad. The final i didnt expect to make the first bend and when i hit the outside wall very hard i thought it was game over, but no came out in 3rd or 4th car felt good so on i went. I took the lead and had it for most of the race i could see i had a steady gap to 2nd then the pain set in i could barely hold on to the wheel and my foot was done so i swapped left foot braking for normal braking jamie caught me and passed me i didnt even put up a fight i let him go as i just couldnt do it. Happy with 2nd indeed car handling seemed good much better than recent times. See ya'll Monday

  2. well boredom has set in been off 3 weeks with a broken foot ive played gta 5 to death and read 2 and a half stephen king books (very good they were to). so i fired up photoshop and did a superstock not sure when i can race it due to said foot didnt take long to do so then i started playing about with a shale car for next year i like it but i think the wing will change i plan on giving f2s a go next year as my first season was 2006. the shale car is just a v3.0 i guess as ive had the car a long while now

  3. Done mine.. a wee tip dont do it after moving from a rallycross car..

     

    Stage 1 not to bad a couple of spins but nothing to major so i was quite happy with that. Stage 2 hit several trees and took a few time penalties and did the last 2 sections on the rim, trouble was when i hit said trees and finally the post thingy it was all hard front impacts so the speed of the car had slowed down alot. The next 3 stages were about as good as i could hope for with the car in the state it was in no accidents in any of them. Stage 6 mostly went fine but again had to do the last 2 sections on the rim so not a good time for that.

     

    Better run overall though and very happy not to see grecce on the list

  4. Great meeting even if i struggled, well done to the winners

     

    been a good season for the small part i could actually race in, Darts commitments at the start of season meant i missed till about late april early may. Had to stop again in August due to wedding/work/honeymoon and finally i could come back last week. Only downside was i have lost all confidence driving on both surfaces shale im not sure why maybe the contact issue as when you hit someone you could never be really sure what was going to happen i think that kinda played on my mind again on Monday, not a fan of this sideways tarmac stuff it wasn't good the first time round in 2009 and not been any better this time but im sure this is being addressed so hopefully we can get some proper tarmac racing next year.

     

    Heat 1 i lined up at the back i went for it of the line and got to the front of the reds only to be followed in next bend, lesson learnt i just start at the back he rest of the night. the Consi was just stupid it was very clear the reds dint wanna be in the Afinal i manage to eventually sneak away and got 5th and in a stroke of luck 82 was deemed to jump the start so i got in by default. Final was nothing interesting either was 11th going into the final bend but it was a case of pass one let one passed so i finished 11th. i did have one race where i was on for a massive result of 6th but i made a arse of it and spun out the last bend.. oh well.

     

    Anyway thanks to Simon (Dave) and Jamie for your efforts this year you both have done a excellent job! Obviously though i was the best RM of the year, i didnt think id ever be doing that again! and it was a championship! but thats what happens when all admin sod off for the night :) Anyway if that then makes you think to drop bank holiday meetings please don't as some bank holidays are not nationwide!

     

    I must say sorry to Leek it seems i always find him in races and he always ends up spinning some my fault some not!

     

    ive gone through my PC and i have a few old skins kicking about if anyone wants one gimmie a shout.

     

    ya'll come back next year!
