Nice to see you and the car on Top Gear, shame they didn't make more of it..
Good result thou all in all! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Alex |
Agreed.
Well done Si! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Si, when's your first supermarket opening? |
When Simon came on I fainted with excitement and missed it all..... http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif
What a hero http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Simon will you still speak to us all now you're famous??? http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif Sal [This message has been edited by scoobychick (edited 20 September 2001).] |
Well done Simon. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif
You should have been wearing some scoobynet clothing. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Lee |
His press agent will answer that Sal http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif
|
Next thing ,he will be in "Eastenders"
driving around "The Square" in some Krap plot !!! |
Simon, you're too humble for them lot!
They just couldn't accept that a 'non-pro' beat them all! Well done mate, yet again, and hope to see you go onto bigger and better things - it's about time isn't it? See you sometime! Richard http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif |
Nice one Simon - really showed the pro's how its done. Very calm hands!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Video'd it so will have another look to see if I can leard something.
DT |
He even managed to look like he knew what he was doing http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif
|
Nice one Si.
What do you reckon to Pedro's excuse on how he is not gonna be very good ? |
Good stuff. Even some humility for the cameras ("That was a good lap", "Really?") http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif
I thought it would be a bit longer (the camera angles were crap too -- no impression of sideways). The Autocar article was lacking in detail compared to previous years, too (in the past it gave individual scores for both cars). |
Great showing Simon.
Nice to see the WRX on TV at last. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif It looked the bollox. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif That nod to the camera though, cracked me up mate. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif |
Thanks guys http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif
It was a great day. The pro drivers were completely cool, it has to be said. Not a hint of negativity. Everyone was joking around, but they were all INCREDIBLY serious once they got in the car. Pedro's comment was bang on.. you don't need that kind of car control to drive in F1.. that is NOT a negative statement, as you need a totally different type of car control. I KNEW I'd have forgotten to hold the belly in!!!! If the camera adds 40 pounds, I hope there were at least 5 cameras on me!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif All the best Simon |
LOL @ john..
I have to say, I was a wel chuffed they chose the nodding bit!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif If they chose that as the best bit, you can imagine what the rest must have been like!!! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif |
Top stuff - makes me a proud to be a member of ScoobyNet http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif
A new question for the pub - how many world record holders do you know then? http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif ChrisB. |
Congrats Simon, quite an achievement.
|
Absolutely brilliant seeing the in car shots, looks so serene from the outside - and on the inside ! ! !
I must, say Simon did look far more controlled (is that the right word ?) than the other guys - hands flailing, opposite lock this way and that. Well done !!! |
IMHO Simon looked far more sideways than the rest of them as well http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif
|
Shame it wasn't in a WRX round Mira, eh?
Good work, Mr DeB |
You once told me that you like it sideways best - I thought it was a sexual deviation - but now I understand http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif
Well done! Pete |
Top one SDB. The folks watched as well. Had no choice, I had the remote. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Well chuffed to see Scoobynet and your success on the goggle box. Shame they didn't make a whole feature out of it. Is some of the footage going to be on the CD Roms? Congrats, P. |
Rock on mate !!!
Next stop Hollywood ! Dave |
OOOPPPPAAALLAAAAHHHH wicked, amazing, incredible job Simon.
Congrats on your World Record. You looked sooooo smooth in the WRX. & coming second in Autocars sideways challenge. Its a shame they didn't mention the record in the mag, but I suppose they were all peeved at getting wipped by you. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Nice one http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif M http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/cool.gif |
Fantastic stuff. The world record looked amazing.
Simon, how the hell to you practice for such an event? Is there a roundabout up the road from your house with some neat grooves worn into the road? |
I can't believe that:
a) I missed it http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif b) That nobody has tried to crack a "good job I was watching SDB on a widescreen TV" type joke. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/tongue.gif David H. |
Cor, I dunno Si....
Being the World Record holder I was expecting you to win http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif Matt http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif |
Nice one mate. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif
|
Nice one Simon!
I must admit, the stationary shot of the M3 looked awesome! Mmmmmmm...... oh well, TT soon! Mossman http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif |
Despite some serious mickey taking from the girlfiend (no typo) I watched and taped the show. Disappointed they didn't make more of what was definitely the most interesting part of the programme. Coming second to the the Lotus guy is certainly no disgrace either!
|
SDB - top stuff mate - thought you did superb, and I never realised that the Scoob in your MIRA attempt was going that much sideways http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/eek.gif Must have been difficult so well done.
Bob - dont worry, I have it on tape so will lend it you on the next meet - autumn karting?? DW http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif |
