Th Superflid family will be attending. First visit to Mallory in over 2 years, as I can now get over the bridge into the pits again!

Managed to meet this guy.....

who kept it on the black stuff and made up a few places to entertain us!
Found this car in the pits but couldn't find the driver....

...and saw a fair amount of this!


Didn't spot Raceboy (Not that I know what he looks like anyway!) or his car (Which is what I was looking for).
First time back at Mallory since the legs stopped working properly, good day out.

Unfortunatly I got saddled with other jobs that not only kept me away from Mallory but got me a call from the credit card people to make sure my card hadn't been stolen as it was being used quite a lot

Buggger, and double bugger.
Next time.

The car in the bottom pic clattered into the barriers in almighty fashion just before the Marshals post scattering bits of Tasmin in the process . As the sadder parts of the crowd made their way to see the damage.........

.........he just straightened up and drove off!!!

Hmmm
Glad you enjoyed your race Gray.
It was nice to be back playing with the lads again!
I wondered if the old boy still had it...
I guess he has with the pole but to blow up from the lead is a bigger kick in the **lls than you can imagine. That's it now for the season by the looks of it. Bloody motor racing BIG highs.. and LOW lows :-(

You did really well in the Pink Peril.
Once you've got used to keeping it in a straight line you'll do even better.
Remember off roading is for 4x4s
(including Skoobies VBG)

PLeased to see the interest in the group here.
All the racers need your support to get us through those bad days.

And re the green thing...
I wondered where you had got to chap.

I spoke with Whizzo after he really enjoyed the outing.
Back to the roots etc.

Ya can keep yer F1 we know where the true passion really is!

Anyway back to my "1F only" mantra practice...

going in a straight line was the trouble, i was supposed to be going round a corner...
