8th quickest in the wet Warm up session first thing

IC hose popped off during 1st practice and got towed back in - made it back out for the end of the session but only got one full complete lap.

Dipstick was spraying a couple of litres of oil all over the engine bay and onto wheels/tyres for the qualifying so couldnt do any better than 1.24 no matter how I tried and I was trying as hard as I could even going off at McLeans onto the grass and staying foot planted to the floor

see you get towed back in, nothing to major then.

we missed your little off. Shame Mike or yourself didnt make it to the final, but as they say there's a long way to go yet.

There has been such huge changes to both o our cars that I guess we both need to iron some wrinkles out and get used to driving them properly. I am sure we will both be on our correct pace soon and hopefully qualifying for the finals.

Oh I don't know. It had it's moments. Perhaps you haven't reached the right stage of old yet.

Or you were looking on the wrong stands.



You meet such a different class of lady at these sort of shows.

I really cant see the point of these girls at the shows, I dont go to trax or any of the shows where these are, I think its disgusting when the shows are for families as well. As an events organiser I get feedback from members who also feel this way hence why the RB clubs never attend anymore.

I was surprised that they did announce before the "show", if you can call it that, started that it was not suitable for children.

I guess they assume this sort of show is mainly attended by single , testosterone fuelled males.

Most car & bike shows tend to drape women over their displays.
