Had a call from Brian this morn to say that he had arrived safely and explained what had happened to Mark.

Really sorry to hear this. :(

The main thing is that Mark is ok. Cars are replaceable.

Fingers crossed that the weather clears a bit for their journey home.

Mrs ESC 06 April 2008 01:53 PM

Tiny said if it gets really bad up there that he and shain would stay in a travel lodge rather than risk traveling it that kind of weather

What a day.

Up way too early......

Weather terrible.....

panicked shouts over the radio.....

Mark upside down in a ditch......

chavs doing donuts in the car park at Donny....

Mike tried his very hardest but there has been some liberal rule interpretation going on:nono:

Mike didn't make the final..... I'm sure he will tell you all about it :cry:

The ONLY thing that matters is that Mark is ok

wazo'swrx 06 April 2008 06:56 PM

Milamber 06 April 2008 06:59 PM

Mike was excellent though:notworthy and Zak did Brilliantly to get through to the final's

We DID go. In the NOBLE :eek2: after slidding around on the A14, then seeing Mark disappear of the motorway infront of us we called it a day and drove SLOWLY home seeing 3 accidents around the same area as marks.

NickBes 06 April 2008 08:06 PM

I dropped Mark off home about an hour ago, he is ok but a bit sore, some pics:-

A big thanks to Wilf for the ride,:notworthy :luvlove:

certainly an eventful day!!

spally 07 April 2008 09:30 AM

yeah good to see the TA cars, but far toooo many chavs knocking around using the parking area as their own race track.

Shame Mike didnt make the final, car looked fantastic.

How did Zak get on?? We didnt hang around for the final as the snow came in again.

speccie dont blame you matey for turning around, glad you both got home ok.

Michaela 07 April 2008 10:32 AM

Zak did very well and came 11th in the final but overall in his class came 10th as one of those cars was an NA car.
A very impressive result indeed :)

Indeed - fantastic result!

Loved the fact he left the baby seat in the back! :lol1:

pinseeker 07 April 2008 10:42 AM

:lol: That seat is worth a couple of tenths :lol1:

Well done to Zak, Mike & Dynamix :thumb:

spally 07 April 2008 11:02 AM

a quote over the tannoy system during the day.

We have an impreza with a very apt racing drivers name Zak Ramage (think i've got that right) ;) :D

How did Duncan get on as well, as he had a little trouble early on?
