Best of luck Dragon

Today was good but tomorrow looks dry and warm with a field of 137 cars ranging from virtually standard hatches through to 7.6 litre Maclaren Can Am racer. Should be good.

Looking forward to an early start in the morning to catch the practice sessions.... never done that before. And if the sun shines I'll be in the 7. Good luck Chris.

The VOSTOK Station in Antarctica is warmer than Croft

I am not sure what it is about Croft but it is always freezing!

[Jag-D]

I hate the sodding place!

(sorry for delayed posting)

Turned out to be a great weekend. Some rain on Saturday, but Sunday was a cracker.

Finally managed to get myself and the car sorted and put in a 64.14 secs run, which I am quite chuffed about.

Still a good 2 seconds to find though until I can beat Henry in his yellow westfield... have a look at the video in the post above (right click on link and 'save as') he certainly tries hard.

When I got to the one in the barrier on Saturday, I initially thought it was you, that looked an expensive repair.

Henry is a very talented driver, but.....(I'll shut up now)

Right so I've not read this, but I'm guessing someone wound Henry Moorhouse up in the paddock and he went out on his usual kamakaze attack on the hill????

Very bloody talented driver, always love watching Henry tt up the hill, but he certainly does like to sit right on the raggedy edge!

He should swap the Westfield for a Mk2 Escort

Jag-D - Andy's not referring to Henry, as he got away with his little excursion ;-) Sadly one of the Caterhams that spun over the finish line wasn't so lucky.

Yes same orange colour as my car, but fortunately (for me) it wasn't me. I was in the paddock when it happened and heard the crunch and then helped the driver get the damaged car onto his car trailer afterwards and felt really gutted for him. The front wishbones were mangled, the Nitron shock was sheared in half at the top and worst of all.... when I looked under the car, some of the chasis rails were distinctly S-shaped. Probably about £3k to put right and a whole lot of DIY time. Ouch!

Ahhh

It's usually safe to predict that Henry went on a mad charge and spun, I've got soooo many photos of him doing so!

Hope the damage isn't too bad on the competitors car...I might actually get back up to Harewood sometime before the end of the season
