With my wonderful luck this season, I have decided not to bother with Mallory and watch the action instead.

I'll be racing at Mallory once I've patched up my sump. I had all my bad luck earlier in the weekend at Snett. I finished on a good note
with a 6th place and my enthusiam restored.

I'm hoping to be at Mallory but it depends on whether even the prodigious talents of Matt & Ivan can make something useful out of the
mangled pile of bits that used to be the bottom end of my engine until about lap 3 of the second race on Sunday.

Hi.
The final instructions are up on line with the usual time table list of drivers and paddock location. Mind i wouldent bother actually looking for the
shark in the lake.
LINK HERE
Drivers from the forum racing include :
LOCOST: #4 aligarratt - #14 TMC - #21 gib1et - #25 Richd - #28 blackie - #39 stevetzoid - #43 simes43 - #47 Rob palin - #67 ernie - #68 Pointy - #73
Robster.

PS rather than missing a few of the drivers i may have added a few too many as i think #14 TMC and #43 simes43 may have pulled their entries.

Mmmm. Tempted to come along & watch the "carnage" & say hi to everyone!!!
Sorry I meant "close racing"

Rob

So that's 2008 over for me...
I'm on the list for Mallory, but now not going - the issue that caused me to pull up during the 2nd race at Snett has proved to be terminal in
the engine department & I've not got the time to get it fixed before Mallory.
Snetterton is fast becoming my most hated circuit - 1st ever race meeting, Snett in March, suffered oil pump failure which wrecked the bottom end.
Last weekend was 2nd visit to Snett and I've come away with valves hitting pistons, bent push-rods and other as yet undiscovered damage lower
down (not taken the bottom end off yet).
And I've missed the Mallory closing date so that's a wasted entry fee!

Thanks for that, I've just phoned and you're right, so that's £150 towards the engine repairs!
Thought there was no refund after the closing date, must remember to read the small print...

Mallory Park's site doesn't show any, but it cound either be too late to order tickets or they've sold out.
Is anyone in the know in the know? I was hoping to go down, but I don't fancy a 2-hr drive to find I can't get in...

Its £12 on the gate.
I was only asking if anyone has any for sale as they come included in the race fee for the drivers, and if they are not using them then they may
aswell sell them on!!

Hi Dan
have you tried asking on the Yahoo site. More drivers hanging out on there than here usually. Might have more success there as theres already people
asking the same question.
As Dan says anyone will be able to buy tickets on the gate on the day. The chances of them selling out are highly unlikely. Unless the BSB are in
attendance.
As popular as the 750mc meetings are they do not rival the crowd pulling numbers of the BSB even if the racing is as close as the bikes in some
formulas.
Cheers Matt

If they did sell out do you think they'll get grid girls in for next season?
They're only noodles

Hi
I should have mentioned above that it would technically be very very wrong for a driver to sell tickets that he was given by the club as entry for
himself and family/crew. A driver may pass a ticket or two FOC onto other drivers who may have a few extra friends/family cooming to watch etc.
But back to the very serious subject that Custardtart has brought up GRID BABES .
I think that all drivers should attend the annual AFD meeting and demand that they are provided. I suppose we will have to concede that the female
drivers are allowed a GRID BLOKE just to keep the Peace
I am sure we could talk Robin into it if he genuinely thought that it would mean full grids in all formulas
But i have a feeling that it will not happen. So
THIS THREAD ON PISTONHEADS will
have to do
Cheers Matt

Whoa!! If any of the female drives want a grid bloke I will do it!!
I look aweful in speedos but if there are grid babes to brush up against it might be worth the embarassment, that is unless I got too excited, if you
know what I mean!!!
