If so.. well done rick pannel... would much rather see an english man win the world than a irish man If not.... why did they drop him from the result ????????

Dazza#289 Posted June 8, 2005 Author Report Posted June 8, 2005 My dad spoke to pannel the day after the world and he didnt say anything about it so as far as i am concerned he is still the champ. I heard he drove bloody well as i heard with about 3 laps to go the irish man tried taking him out by punting him and heard rick held on to it well does anybody else know anymore sites with pictures on. Cheers again

Cheers again 19854[/snapback] I dont think Emerson hit him, at least not at my end of the track. He did however get a look up the inside as they raced towards the two laps to go borad but this was as close as he got the lead.

Ham 775 Posted June 9, 2005 Report Posted June 9, 2005 No body on here said he was cheating. Budge had heard a rumour that he had been dropped from the results that's all. As you know him you have been able to put the record straight. Thank's for that and congratulations to him on his win.
Bangergirl530 Posted June 9, 2005 Report Posted June 9, 2005 (edited) Romours r just sad lil ppl wit nuffin else betta 2do with there lifes, just let it go ova ya head if sum1 says sumthink, dnt cum on the net and start talkin bout it.

Thank's for that and congratulations to him on his win. 20047[/snapback] Thx Ham... at least you read it the way i meant it. with no offence and asking a simply question Romours r just sad lil ppl wit nuffin else betta 2do with there lifes, just let it go ova ya head if sum1 says sumthink, dnt cum on the net and start talkin bout it. Ask the driver himself is the best way. Thats wot i done as i know him well. The gold roofs look great already on his l/rods 20053[/snapback] As i don't know the driver.... how could i ever ask him... ?????? so easiest way was to ask on here... didn't call him a cheat.. And i wouldn't spread rumours... And have already said he drove a good race to hold the irish man off.... so please come down off your high horse.... and get back in your pram... put your dummy back in your mouth.... And ask a few of the other drivers on ukdirt if i have nothing else better to do... ?????

Guest leasj1 Posted June 10, 2005 Report Posted June 10, 2005 what ever happened to the legendary diggy smith has he given up the rods, maybe he does 1300 now i dunno?
Dazza#289 Posted June 10, 2005 Author Report Posted June 10, 2005 diggy smith still races l/rods he was at northampton think he got caught up in 1 of the crashes dont really know
Ham 775 Posted June 10, 2005 Report Posted June 10, 2005 (edited) He still races 1300s as well. Unless he's under suspention at the moment. Diggy was a great 2lr Saloon driver. Shame he'll be rememberd as the man who lost two world finals for rule infringments. Edited June 10, 2005 by Ham 775

Shame he'll be rememberd as the man who lost two world finals for rule infringments. 20198[/snapback] Lol. Do you remember the abuse I gave him at Taunton on his 3 laps of honour Ham? And he just laughed........... Quality.
Ham 775 Posted June 10, 2005 Report Posted June 10, 2005 I remember Scraps. He took a lot of abuse over the years and never rose to it once. Just laughed or smiled. Good job the world final was on the sunday that year though because i still can't remember bugger all about the Saturday night. (Mo Crowsons P100 Pick up Saloon excepted )
BWP Posted June 10, 2005 Report Posted June 10, 2005 diggy smith still races l/rods he was at northampton think he got caught up in 1 of the crashes dont really know 20197[/snapback] He wasnt in a crash, he was around 4th or 5th place at about half way through the Lightning rod WF but pulled off and it looked to me the reason was due to over heating.
