Terry Everall Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 All the entered sprint guys will be there Sat and Sun Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted June 25, 2013 Author Posted June 25, 2013 Depends whether the sprinters can spare the time/want to run their cars over lunch. Its looking increasingly as if, subject to time, we may get a couple of escorted laps, not just the one. Quote
Nic Chase (NICO) - Shropshire & Mid-Wales AO Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 I will be there. Nic Chase - NICO Quote
Nick Algar - Competition Secretary Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Presumably the sprinters can take part?If so, I'll be there. Yes, definately, BUT no racing on the track. We need as many as possible for the picture Quote
Nic Chase (NICO) - Shropshire & Mid-Wales AO Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Thanks Nick, be kind to the rest of us !! Quote
alexander72 Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Put me down for this please - should be competing if I can sort my traction control and yaw control out in time... will try and bring Debbie and some of the kids... Quote
Nick Algar - Competition Secretary Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 if I can sort my traction control and yaw control out in time. You don;t need any of that electronic stuff, just use the right foot. If I can manage it with 650 bhp, I am sure you can with a little crossflow Quote
Terry Everall Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Agree with Nick I used to have all the whistles and flutes but prefer brain/right foot control Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted June 25, 2013 Author Posted June 25, 2013 The laps will be behind a "pace car" of some description, so no racing! Should be good fun though. I'm really looking forward to it. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted June 25, 2013 Author Posted June 25, 2013 Excellent. Going: Dave Eastwood - Gadgetman OnliestSmeg Andy Dowler - Greenstreak Mathew Downs - Jocker John Loudon - John Stephen Herbert - StephenH Nic Chase - Nico James Alexander - Alexander72 - Toolorders Quote
alexander72 Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Nick, Reverend Tel, the addition of electronic trickery to my car is merely a subject of mirth amongst my friends in the tree industry who dont understand why I would buy a car that cant tow anything, cant carry anything. doesn't have a winch. doesn't have 4x4 or anything vaguely useful. On the subject of traction control I already have that fitted in the drivers seat as I am too scared to go quick enough to break traction.... I am hampered by a daughter who's only words of encouragement are "dont die" and a partner who reminds me I am not insured in the event of death..... I'm new to all this "drive as quick as you can" lark so bear with me while I learn the ropes and build up my book of excuses for use in the paddock. Our team is funded on a shoe string this year owing the current state of the UK Tree Industry and "austerity measures" but suffice to say I am loving every minute of the few events I have done. Anyway back to the garage to see if I can squeeze in a sequential gearbox before tea-time (joke) Yours in Motorsport James Alexander BSc (Hons), MFI, B&Q and Loggologist.... Quote
Terry Everall Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 You dont need to build up a book of excuses I have copyright on them all Quote
alexander72 Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 hehehehe - i've got a few this year like "there's bird's nesting in the engine bay so I cant do more than 90...." Quote
FILFAN Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 I'm hoping to be competing too so count me in, just waiting on some funds to clear then will have my entry submitted. Quote
