Well what a great monthly meeting that was! The weather has been good of late so that helped to encourage both regular members and new members to make an appearance. When we arrived we found our illustrious ex-chairman Scott and Black Country AO Rhett already parked up with three of our new visitors. We greeted John and Chris and Nikki whilst a number of regular members turned up the most notable was Andy and Becky in the newly remodelled Westfield finally back on the road. Shortly after the final newcomers arrived and introduced themselves as Tom and his dad Andy. I did ask if they had been before as they seemed familiar but it was a little later when they realised who I was as Tom used race karts at the same time as my son some 25 years ago! Dave and Val set off in their Westfield but had to return home as it cut out a few times so made it in the MX5 accompanied by Darren whose Westfield only had a minor oil leak. Ali and Gail didn't come in the Westfield as Gail had a new tattoo on her back so it was not comfortable enough. Mick came in his Morgan and his son Mark also dropped in to tell us he had sold the Westfield that they shared. The general chat was briefly interrupted for Scott's competition, as reported in Ali's post, the guesses were quite wide ranging but the ladies were most accurate. Gail was closest followed by Becky so both received Westfield mugs and coasters, well done! Hope to see you all at the next meet on 20th July!

how about this haha

That's going to be one long straight if there's not much of a shicane They have said over the years the runway surface has been struggling Maybe they should just resurface it haha

Hi Terry, Results are on this link. http://www.resultsman.co.uk/LiveTiming/EventViewer.php?Download=998 You have to pick your way though them. I had a great day with my first class win. Shame my Mondeo tow car decided to eat an auxillary belt on the way home almost setting fire to the car. It took 5 1/2 hours to get a flat bed recovery truck for the car and trailer so I got home at 1.30am this morning! Could have been on the way there.... Simon

Thanks John. On behalf of the club, our condolences to Jean and the family. Anything we can do please let me know.

Kev, these look OK. did you go for the upgraded aluminium adjusters or stick with the steel? Any reason you went for 5 point not 6? Might try and pop over for a look,

I agree that being a councillor for some is an ego trip but most I have ever met are well meaning. However some are elected because they popular not because they qualified to do the job. One I know was a librarian, not even a head librarian but now she is head of the planning committee!! They have to rely on the advice given by the expert the council employ or commission to advise them. The bit about the wealth, I cannot agree with, it is irrelevant to how the council works and in this disaster. Does the fact that multi millionaire Lilly Allen lives in that area along with Adel have any bearing on how a council is funded, not in anyway. Yes it is a rich council but under both labour, Tories and the Tory Lib dem alliance, none have allowed councils to use their reserves to build homes. None have reversed the policy of selling councils home off that Thatcher started. That is why we have so few social homes. No one should feel or be made to feel ashamed at having worked hard and done something to better themselves, to set rich against poor in this way is shameful, in my opinion. What you get at the end is something we do not want and is getting worse in the UK, why do you need a play car when others cannot afford one at all, is the sort of things some would ask. It is wrong that that being wealthy, or having more than the worst off person, is seen as a crime, unless you sing a bit or play football, allowing this to happen is equally shameful Emotions are understandably running high, which is why calm reflection with facts is needed. As Mark has said, it may not be as the media has decided, the council, the contractors etc may have followed the rules to the letter. If they have they are in the clear, sort of, if not they are looking at long term jail. If they have done everything 100% then the rules are clearly so wrong and that is a bigger mess to sort out.

I'll be here on the 13th August if anyone fancies joining me.
