Just sat down at my computer to see what happened at Brands yesterday, only to see that Mike put his 'home built' (and that's not meant as a negative), Racing Cerb' on pole!

And, went onto another class win, finishing 5th overall. thumbup

I think his pole-sitting time stunned everyone. To have his class B car ahead of all the Class A tuscans must have raised some eyebrows! Well done Mike for pedalling it quickly, but well done Tony (his dad) who seems to do all the work, never complains and is IMO the real star smile

Can I second the well done Mike and Tony.

I watched Tony work on his boys car over three days to do a clutch change. He really is a tireless uncomplaining enthusiast. I think everything that could have gone wrong did go wrong with that change, and I didn't hear him complain, or swear once. He just kept on solving the problems till they were all gone.

I think at the heart of any 'so called' professional team, there would be a tony getting the job done.

Thanks for the support!

Yes we had a good weekend. Was dissapointed to not beat the tuscans in the race. Held onto Sam Head for a while but i lost my brake performance again!(will have that sorted for next time)

Agree with both Julians comments about my Dad! He is the real star. He works really hard on the car and is learning fast about set ups etc.

Have you had your car corner weighted yet smile.

My weighing system is nearly ready for use.

Maybe corner weighting the car will give you an edge into the corners?
