jay427 Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 thanks all the car was good started right at the back in the first one about 40th on grid and stayed with the world champ all race and finished behind him. then the second race i started in my grade and got up 2 second then got pushed wide and got third. Then the final was going well catching leader then my tyres went off and could not gfet no grip but there u go we will learn that as we go and from here can only get better while inproving the car. i would also like 2 thank my bro and all jay 404 as with out them it would be alot harder

Tricky88 Posted April 1, 2005 Author Report Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) Here is the report from last nites Ipswich Evening Star p.s notice the weird looking bugger on the left looooooooooooool Edited April 1, 2005 by aussie427
Magpye105 Posted April 1, 2005 Report Posted April 1, 2005 Here is the report from last nites Ipswich Evening Star p.s notice the weird looking bugger on the left looooooooooooool 11663[/snapback] Nice for a local paper to support oval racing like the Star do, the write up is excellent for fans of oval racing. I remember the Express & Star in the midlands covering the Rods in the early 80s, only cos I was pictured eating an ice lolly (that they gave me) sat on the bonnet of my Dads Escort in 1984 (Easter Monday).....gosh that was 21 years ago...I feel old If you are like me and race on the ovals then do your bit to get free publicity from the local rags. I used to get back page reports and colour photos when racing my Legend for most meetings. Spedeworth even complained to Incarace about how I used to get loads of space and they struggled to even make it in the paper. If anyone wants help on PR and how to go about getting into the papers, then feel free to email me magpye105@hotmail.com and I'll give you help. I might even be tempted to do some of the donkey writing work for you in return for free passes etc (lol, but its better to report if you're there to watch in person). One other tip is invest in track photographer photos, papers will only print (except it seems looking at Jay's grin above) decent photos and they prefer action photos if possible.
sim_902 Posted April 2, 2005 Report Posted April 2, 2005 Bit of topic but, our local paper(tyrone curiour) has 1/2 page in everyweek with the spedeworth nutts corner reports, they also have a bit in with a nhr report when they are on also doing the big meetings(euro,irish gp,british,national,wf ect).
FbF 656 Posted April 9, 2005 Report Posted April 9, 2005 our local paper has swanlake results in nowt else worth reading mind! Well done jay!!! top job m8
