Great fun today, Big thanks to Mark (semo) for towing the dead Scoob off track Let me know about the tyres too mate please.
Massive thanks to Bez for towing the dead Scoob home for me and also letting me drive his Scoob home

Thanks to Dave for this last Blyton and everyone that came to make a good fun day for all

Sorry I left a bit abruptly but broken cars affect the mind

Well done to all once again

 

whats happened to your car then?

 

Headers blowing, I know they were cheap
Then immobiliser is doing its job too well, I think . Engine won't turn over or bump off after a 360 spin, but no bump or contact with owt. 360'd it many times b4 so who knows, not me

 

you never know you might be lucky like a wire or summat come loose.
headers blown flexi link or gasket?

 

I think flexi but not sure, one of the lads looked while I revved and he said up pipe so that would be flexi

 

at least with flexi its easy to see if its blown. was there many there then and did it snow?

 

No Snow Swifty....


Too fooking cold to snow....

 

Glad you got home ok Ian......

 

Not as many as put names down, enough though. Weather was sunny and dry but track was very slippery due to dirt etc. The wind was f*cking freezing, soon warmed up in cars though

 

Cheers bud, Bez helped me get car in garage and its staying put till next week

No mate,no shorts.....

Wanted to take van on, well Sarah did....

 

Oh and thanks for the ride round Dave, nice motor you got there. Need that DCCD I think

Well, The Last Blast is over, and a bloody good day was had by all. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who came not only today, but to all the previous Blyton days. Although I thoroughly enjoy myself on the day, my main pleasure throughout has been watching everyone else enjoying them which has made me very proud over the last five years. There is a glimmer of hope that we may be able to continue, but I'll have to wait until Howard makes his decisions. I think I am right in saying only one person has attended every one, and as organiser I'm ashamed to say it isn't me. Sticky has been ever-present, enjoyed every single one, and given us all plenty of laughs at his expense, so hats off to you Andy.

I'd also like to say thank-you to the WYIOC for their kind gifts today in appreciation of my arranging the last eleven Blyton events. I'm not sure CG will allow the brilliant picture above the fire, but it will be going above my desk in my study. I'm already enjoying a glass of Whisky as I type this, and the Vodka is in the freezer in preparation. If anyone wants to call to share a glass over the next few weeks, feel free.

As for today, the turnout wasn't quite what I had hoped for, but a good day was had by all. No serious damage, a few breakdowns and thankfully, as always no injuries. The track was dry and the sun shined all day, but foo me it was bloody freezing The grass-track racers had left a lot of mud and dust on the track leaving some treacherous areas early on, but when it was dispersed around the track by us lot it became tricky everywhere Who said you can't drift a FWD car

Thanks again, and maybe we will do it again sometime.

 

Thanks Ian. I do hope your car is ok. it went well and sounds great.. sorry if i startled you on that bottom bend when you was parked up i could not resist leaving all that smoke... ... .... DCCD....

 

Anytime mate, and Matt will not be able to do it but will pm you his number and he can email it to you and you can put it up it looked great..

 

I've uploaded are pics

Just to say another thanks for a fab day and I loved having the track to myself for a couple of sessions near the end
