I'm still amazed that I filled up on Friday night for Saturdays fun. Drove there with you all and watched you brim your tanks (and Jerry cans for some), enjoyed the track and then drove home. Went to w*rk on Saturday night (Leeds to Wakey) and back home, then again on Sunday. Popped out for some stuff today and will be out tomorrow teaching with the HALF A TANK I've still got left

 

lol...

 

..

 

I used more in my last 5 laps of Blyton than I did getting from Blyton to Leeds afterwards I **** ye not

 

I didn't do bad, filled up in waky and had to put some more jiuce in when i got home... filled it with £35 when i set off and it hold 40L
not bad...

 

Sorry to burst your bubble mate but No... No you can't be smug in a Skoda.. It's not the done thing...

 

 

I went to Whitby and back on a full tank.

 

Warning light and buzzer went last night as I pulled into the drive, so 60+ miles left

 

Dave it's ONLY acceptable to be smug about the mpg.

Only joking my best friends have a Fabia.....

P.S. @ last EOM I couldn't remember LEDA.... now gone bust !!!

Dunx

 

I also feel a little smug about every time I went out on track, when I measured myself against the Scoobs out there they weren't gaining on me, but I also wasn't catching them. I know it isn't a Scoob, and certainly not my old one but it's a long way from disappointing. Scott seemed to enjoy the brief lap he had as we went to rescue POB, and Paul (new guy) enjoyed his laps

 

Yes mate was defo impressed....

Lovely inside aswell....

Tryin to get sez to part ex her colt for one,but she's now seen new age wagon (51plate)

 

Sorry mate... it's still a SKODA... loads of MPG and defo fun on the track... but it's still a SKODA...

It still suffers from the badge regardless of who builds it and actually how nice it is to drive...

Regardless of how much you're impressed.. I'd wager it won't be long before you're behind the wheel of a rear wheel drive, terrible MPG, head turning motor with character...

 

Not to defend a skoda by any stretch of the imagination but Saturday was a big learning for me, firstly how much i can't drive fast, and secondly how much fun it is learning .
When Dave took me out in the oil burner it was a great help i am sure out of the many corners i got at least 2 or 3 of them bang on by the end of the day. Can't wait to get myself a spare set of wheels the next time i go to Blyton so i can push the car that bit more. And Hopefully will have the suspension mods that Dave advised before we revisit...
Would have loved to mingle more and meet some of the other guy's and gals and our Jordan My 10 Year old was Really Maaad that i didn't take him as he loves racing and was quite talented in the go-kart's down at the track in Batley..

Hope to see you tom...

Regards Paul

 

I offered her a spin at Blyton but she wasn't interested, and when I told her you might be lining her up for one she looked horrified

Will hopefully be remapping and stuff before too long and will let you have a try then
