Guinness - I assume that you got your leak sorted then?  It was good to meet you, and apologies to any of the locostbuilders that I didn't
speak to but you know how it is..... There's always next time! 
p.s. Glad that there were no real 'incidents' - I think my trip through the gravel was about as bad as any that occurred! 
Spin 'er off Well...

Whoops, who's this taking a serious short cut across the bus stop?
 
Joelp takes a short cut
Coose, yes thanks, got home with all the oil still in the engine. That's a first for me!!!
Just got to get the jetting sorted out next. Dropped a set off to get drilled out this morning to 215 and 175. Have sent mail to Dave K via Jeff
J.
Cheers

thats me in the picture! I understeered badly in the first part of the chicane, through a puddle. I thought id save it by going behind the next
puddle/kerb rather than over it! Did that a few times actually!

A good time had by all
A crap day for weather but made for interesting battles with lack of grip.
That car of yours is very nippy now Joel - mainly due to the weight saving from using cable ties where most other people would use nuts and bolts I
suspect
A big thanks to the organisers if they read this - I'll be up for another if you are god enough to sort it out.
Cheers

Mark - LMAO - cable ties brilliant. I especially liked the idea of dumping the coolant at the end of the day to save a few extra pounds
Mike K - looks like your car was at home in the wet - shark by name, shark by ........
Read the mail ref NE7ers - watch this space for a posting.
Fantastic day. Rain definitely did NOT stop play. Great organisation. Most impressed by the relaxed attitude of the track owners. Cant wait for next
one. Would like to get involved.
I hope to see some of you at the Church Mouse tomorrow (as long as my pass out is honoured!)

Thanks Mike and Peter, great day out.
Building confidence in the car now!
Mike, I bet you're glad I emptied that puddle out a bit for you first!!
 
me under water
See you tomorrow!
Mike
edited to say, "Peter is a total headcase, when all around were spinning like tops, he was out there consistently lapping quicker than almost
anyone, and HE WAS ON SLICKS!!!!!! FFS!!!!"

There's a slight difference between Mike and Peter - Mike is blatantly nuts, but Peter keeps it under wraps to an extent.
It's like Mike has hooliganitis, but Peter has tourettes.....
