Not a bad weekend at all smile

Great day at North Weald, I did not understand what the instructors were trying to tell us so just went and had a bit of fun on the first part of the day biggrin Fantastic afternoon on the time attack, got to sort out my oil catch can ASAP wink
Sorry to see the Daytona Cobra wheel hub issue, but what a car to replace it with, another 7ltr Cobra! Fantastic to see Nadine again, god that Girl can drive biggrin

I know now how to do Donut's although I had not intended to!

I too was amazed how competive Mr Fishing was!hehe

Sorry Don 1 had rubbing issues, I believe you can get some cream for that biggrin

Was not sure why our run from the hotel to Santa Pod was delayed but we got there in the end thumbup Sat Navs seem to pick there own way, and different makes seem to plan routes differently?

Santa Pod was er....Well....... Expensive!! I was expecting to do the 1/4 mile using the power of the engine, not my bloody feet pushing it! Still I must have shed a few pounds by the time I got the car to the front entrance frown

Think I made Matt's day when he saw my fast Red car on the Recovery truck hehe

I hope everyone had as much fun as I did and great to meet new friends from Europe wavey

Finally, WELL DONE ADE, respect to El Pres thumbup
Cheers Fatty.

A truly satisfying weekend.
And to hear so many with positive feedback makes it all the more rewarding.

Huge thanks to all participants and helpers without which this event would not have happened - respect to you all. thumbup

Special thanks to:-
Neil for buying the professional photo of our group at Santa Pod (one framed photo for each driver in the photo) – excellent.
Matty for sorting the Saturday afternoon cruise – (our Swedish visitors especially commented how much they enjoyed this)
Baz for a whole host of things plus advice that kept me going (not sure my new picture of #53 will make it to the front room but I'm workin on it lol)
Charlie for keeping an eye on the ¼ mile results for me
Fatboy18 for his support, boundless energy and antics that never fails to make me laugh
And finally thanks to the helicopter pilot for the flyby. hehe
