We shall be at Cadwell this weekend for the NSSCC races. My lad Pete will be racing his Honda Civic, No 67, both days.
It's looking like a good weather forecast, if anyone's there, drop by and say hello.
Race timetable
I'm out in the RAFMSA and Sports vs Saloons on Sunday in the Locoblade, be nice to see you again (first time since Croft in May?)!
I thought you'd sold or were selling the car?
Will see you there.
It hasn't sold yet, so I may as well race it

hope you both have a good weekend, bit to far for me to come and watch this time
Whaddaweekend!
Pete quallified 2nd in class for Saturday's race, just behind Paul Moss's potent Saxo. The Saxo bogged down badly on the start, plus went
off at park on lap one, leaving Pete leading the class. He was chasing a class B MGZR for the entire race, while the recovering Saxo worked
it's way through the field. It eventually caught the Honda on the last lap, but Pete managed to get a better drive out of Barn, and kept the Saxo
at bay. Yay! first, 1st in class under the belt!
Sunday's race saw the Saxo and Honda on the grid, alongside eachother....again. The flag dropped and Pete got elbowed back to 2nd in class, then
lost another place at Park.. and the Saxo powered past him out of Mansfield.. End of lap one he was fourth in class. Time to fight back!
He eventually outbraked one Fiesta into Park, chased down the next one, catching him on Park straight. A bit of pressure around the gooseneck,
Fiesta outbraked it'self down into Mansfield, and Pete was through to a well deserved class 2nd.
First race
Second race Part 1
Part two will be up shortly.
Sounds like a great weekend Pass on our congratulations to Pete.

The Saxo sits quite high on its suspension,but its not effecting its performance,so it must be working well,when he passed your Pete,it appeared to
get a better run out of the bottom of the goose neck,and as you know its one of the worst places to get the power down,this could it be down to a LSD
in the Saxo,or he just has a bit more power,I know I always harp on about LSD's,but its because my Clio does not have one,and I am sure it
would make a second or two on mine a lap around Cadwell,and if the Saxo has one that alone could be making the difference.

Wow,he's got some money in that car,very nice,in that case,your Pete is doing remarkably well to keep with that,but he will need to put his hand in his pocket for a LSD and a few more ponies for next season if he is to beat that on a regular basis
