Chris, im pretty sure your the person who least needs his name written across his head

Guys what the deal with spectators, Just that the missus is mithering me to ask, ive said she'll be bored after about an hour but shes a determined little thing!!. She'd also like to bring along the little fella as he is scooby mad, but i know a lot of places dont allow under 16's or was it 12's?!?!?

Mark

p.s. Chris where did you get that helmet, Ive got the use of a motorbike helmet but it looks very bulky compared to your one.

 

spectators no problem just make sure the little fella does not run on the track!


Chris got his helmet from Demon Tweaks for the princely sum of £46.75 (which he still owes me as well as Beefy) LOL.

 

Im leaving the country

No worries andy, next time I'm passing, I'll drop you the cash, sorry.
chris.

has gav paid for last year yet?

 

bloody hell you are soon as well!!!!!!


Gav did pay me after I reminded him several times LOL

 

Looks good CW, but shouldn't the CHRIS be printed backwards so that you can see it when you look in the mirror?

 

Cheeky sod!!!

Are we taking bet's for who has the first off?? My bets on Pete because he can't drive

gav..

 

Sunday 8th August.
Mid Cheshire Motor Club Sprint is at Curborough. I'll be there in the Pug 205, and with the Escort MK1. Hopefully the rain will stay away and I'll be trying quite hard to catch that pesky MK1.

As usual the Escort will be driven in its style (sideways) especially if we get chance to do some play runs which don't count towards the Championship.

Cheers.

Apologies for the hi-jack !

Blackscoob, no worries about highjack. Any tips for a fast lap?

 

PMSL ~ I wish I had some top tips... I might be doing better in the championship !

My only info is that there is no best line around Fradley Hairpin... it has about 3 apex's and no matter what your in (unless its the MK1 'scort) it will under steer like a pig.


*apologies image blatently nicked from www.curborough.co.uk

Do you time each run as we would on the sprint from the timing hut to the finish line at the end of the straight ?

 

blackscooby, we use the best timing equipment there is:
a waved flag to start and a mobile phones stopwatch to finish
very technical
do you have to pay to come watch on sunday?
may pop down in the afternoon.
chris.

 

I'm not 100% sure on whether MCMRC ask that spectators pay.... its usually a good crowd so I guess not ! .......

*Although I could be wrong !

 

Can't wait till the day!!!

 

Hello again Blackscooby when are you out next after Curborough?

We were at Loton last weekend and Got second FTD on the Sat and FTD on the sunday.

I saw your off at Harewood last year now i have seen the piccies. Did you compete at Harewood at the National earlier this year?

PS Chris you will have to pay at Curborough


NOT LONG NOW

May be a suprise turning up as well!

 

I've entered Harewood on the 29th August.

I've tonnes of video to upload to my website yet. Working in Kenya has put a downer on much of my season, but I'm back in the UK tomorrow (7th) ~ HURRAY

Competed at Loton on Sat 10th July and that was fantastic. Loton is an ace Hillclimb. I wasn't at the National event at Harewood, can't be arsed wiith that event as there's tonnes of waiting around.

To come I've got Harewood, Thorsby Park and a 3 Sisters sometime.

Being in Kenya the net access is crap.. when is your Curborough outing ?
(I guess your full ~ but worth asking)
....... Any chance of a play ?

Cheers

Mark

 

Tell me it's a firecat Andy or single seater!!!

 

Firecat is 95% defo


Firehawk a possibility


Sorry Mark very booked up, could have filled the places twice over!!!

 

sorry andy, even with the firecat, you've no chance against my new helmet

 

well all of you should feel lucky the master isn't driving or you would all be put to shame!! hahahaha

good lad Andy, i've been wanting to see one in action for ages an ages

 

Keep it to yourself!


PS some new info in Smacs forums

 

Cr4p! Best get a move on and fit my new parts. Only got new shocks, new springs, new clutch, front and rear discs and pads and full geometry to do! Wish I had an MOT ramp!

 

Hello guys, whats happening regards meeting up?

*****

 

I'm not going to be going until mid-morning, as I'm not getting back from hols until around 1am the night b4
Last time we convoyed down, and met beefy and steelx at a greasy spoon not far from the circuit.
Don't see why that couldn't happen again, it was a nice bacon butty to start the day
chris.

 

nicely volunteered there *****. Are you going to sort out a meeting up time and route.

 

I'll have to cut down on the food this time and then maybe I'll go a bit quicker!!!!

 

Yes ok I`ll do the route...I suppose its about time.
What time do we need to get there and whats the postcode of the circuit.

*****

 

Steel shall we make our way to the greasy spoon like last time? You'll have to wait for me though so I dont get lost!

 

***** I'll be coming from CHESTERFIELD if there's any where for me to meet up with you on the way!! Remember my machine is slow!!!
CHEERS CHEESY

 

TYRES TYRES TYRES
I'm gonna need some new ones after this, anybody want to give me details if there in the same position, and I can approach my local dealer for some new toyos.
I fancy having a go with the new proxes t1-r, which are a little dearer than "s", but meant to be more grippy, and last longer
I've got 215/40/17's for around £85 each before now, so if we can do a few sets, should be around that price.
Let me know,
chris.

 

Cheesy, when I get the circuit details I`ll see what I can plan

CW, yes I could well be up for a set of tyres...
I`ve found a place in Trafford park(they do mobile fitting too) that was doing Goodyear F1`s for £89 or so....
I can ask them too... see if we can play one tyre place off from the other eh?

*****

 

f1's for £89 is a good deal, they normally retail over £100 at least!
Once we have details of how many and sizes, then we can play, maybe even get a northern group buy going
chris.
