Looks like i wont make it now due to a dodgy clutch in Pauls Transit, hoping to still scratch into wimbo for the evening meet tho, good luck Magic and Knobster!

Thats such a shame Xtx! Hope things go alright at wimbo mate

Was good after all, stalled heat 1 around lap 10 and couldn't restart as battery was flat, semi blew up as too hot around lap 13 in heat 2 and finished the Final 8th, not bad for a 1.0 ltr micra with a slipping clutch against a bunch of wizzy honda's and rover's. Only damage was a puncture and a few scratches mostly cos i couldn't catch anyone to hit!

 

As Allstar says how'd you n Knobster get on?

I had great fun in the Tina, First race was going really well, even overtook some whizzy Sunnys!, and catching more up! But a hose came off where the system pressurised so that was Heat 1 done.

 

In the final Im not sure what happened, I think the track was abit Slippy, although dad says its because the tyres on the rear had slow punctures and were flat.....But I spun out on the first bend, lucky i started at the back, as there were 50ish cars in it.... lol, I got it facing the right way again and just was really arsy!, Spun out on turn 3/4 again, then decided to call it a day there lol. Didnt do the DD as i didnt want to aggravate my chest !

 

Didnt expect it to come back from 1 race but to come home straight as it went there was nice lol, Taking it back in 4/5 weeks time!

Well you wont want to hear that weve got another mk2 and maybe a mk1 lined up for them,better to be used in unlimited bombers tbh anyway,get about 6 meetings instead of 1 lap in full contact then you get blown up by a 99% box tube yank

Why flame him? his dads car, his choice? their actually a good idea the bombers at the end of the day as 90% of the people im guessing who race em are the ones who dont want to fork out a shed load of money and still have a good days racing. Also at the end of the day they get blown up and put to the cage or w.e so hardly a waste?

 

Mk1's waste yes, just to correct it.
