Makes me smile that you lot feel you need a 'so called' proffesional driver to aid you to win events.Proper cop out if ever ive seen one.If you are brave enough to enter such a competition you should also be brave enough to drive the car not rely on someone else for your bragging rights just my opinion of course

I guess Neil managed to cope with his set of new Mintex brake pads and 2 litres of millers racing brake fluid.

Guys

SDB here.

As we all know, Shaun is one of the best drivers ever to graduate from the Steevie Wonder school of advanced guesswork.

He once set a lap record around Silverstone, which was later beaten by a guy on a push bike who went EVEN slower - truly remarkable!

--

So, assuming I can make it, I'm snatching the keys off him - so basically you're all toast!!









(God help me! I really need to remember how to drive a car!)

Being a world record holder, problem is you are used to going around in circles!
This has got corners and straights!

Yeah, arrogance is definitely not one of my strong points!!

Shaun is fully aware, and while he could clearly have kicked everyone's butts on his own, he wants to be kind and let me have a go!

Oooo a bit of infighting!!!!

News to me is this!!

I was under the belief that someone that could actually drive was going to be behind the wheel..... not some MaxPower racer?!

Regards,
Shaun.

This is more like it......handbags at 10 paces..... the way things are going the pair off you will be two knackered to drive that will mean the rest of use might have a chance.

Shaun

You're actually improving in terms of driving ability.. I even think I might move you onto "gears" during your next lesson.

Shaun's the only guy that actaully ADDS weight to his car to improve the performance (as long as there are some downhill sections).

But in fairness, he has fully mastered left foot braking, but that's only so he can stop the car from going fast!

Have you got the 24 pot calipers fitted yet to cope with you being on the brakes, basically all the time?

Bring it on you losers! I may be long past my best.. but even my worst would eat you lot for breakfast!!

Simon,
If I didnt know you in the "I could cause some serious damage to your body parts easily" kind of way, you would of had to retract those words back up your bum where they came from!

Gussy,
You want some as well... or are you shouting from behind some big tall git!

Buckley,
Did you know your sponsored graphic now points to some nasty, nasty xxx site!

Dill typeR,
Do you really wanna upset me!

(off to polish my helmet)

Regards,
Shaun.

Seeing as you are all so confident, how about giving the 16 year old who will be driving my car a head start?

Shaun - funnily enough when I told him the entry was accepted he went off to polish his helmet too

whoops looks like i hit a raw nerve there.....shaun for your info Im 3ft short of 9ft and 12 stone wet through and as Iv only briefly met you at powerstation and what I can remember you must be at least 6ft 4 and about 16 stone now is that why you stripped your car out to balance the weight out
means you might be able to have a bacon butty before you start.
