Anyone going this weekend ?
It's a double header round over the saturday and the Sunday.
I've seen the entry list and there's loads of good stuff going.
Loads of sevens of all varieties - Lawrence hoy in the 1800k Caterham and the Coghills in their Westfield Megabusa - Colibriman's mate Gary in
the 195bhp 1600cc Westfield. Another member of this list, Gizmo in his slick shod 2.5 litre Impreza turbo.
My Friend Jock in the Scabbiest looking Dutton in the world, but his speed is totally awesome.
Best of all though, in the single seaters will be Stewart Robb in the ex David Grace Pilbeam MP58 DFR - 600bhp.
Last but not least by any manner of means, Graeme Wight and Junior are down as entrants in the brand new self designed GWR Predator. This car is
definitely a must see. I believe this may be the car's debut.
3.0 V10 and the driver is absolutely awesome.
Anyone going ?
I'll be there for a wee while today and all of Sunday
You didnt mention your entry????
Hope the weather is better over in the west!
not going to manage but expect a full report!!!
You're joking, right ?
Doune for a first event ?
Nah - don't think so, it's a tunnel. If/when you go off at Doune, you're taking the car home in a bucket. I took the advice on offer
and the car is staying home this weekend.
There's also the fact that all the entries in A4 are all running Hyabusas.
I reckon I might be struggling a bit there.
Should be OK for the 23rd at Kames then May 1st at Forrestburn
I'm heading there shortly....after I drop of Drew's lovely (ahem..) mini....I've had the pleasure of it in my drive for a week..
I'll be staying there tonight.... bring a tent and camp over....It's not that cold...! drink will be flowing!
As I said to Zil last week...there no way I would even consider doing Doune in a seven....they have got to be nuts!

has the video for the Southerners 2 see.
I might come up tomorrow not sure .
Thanks colin
Well how did it go ??
Wellllll...........
It rained
Gizmo's 2.4 Impreza was monstrous - the red one which was at Kames the other week.
Graeme Wight broke his transmission.
Jock's weekend went very badly, but I won't say publicly why. Except for saying he should mark his fuel cans a bit better
Spoke to some decent sorts over the day. Came home when the heavens opened though
Was pretty cold and got a bit miserable when the rain started....
A busa Westfield (Wallace Menzies) hit the barriers after the first corner...bent wishbones front and rear, cracked bodywork and damaged 2 (expensive)
wheels
And a ROAD car got The FTD (fastest time of day)...............!
A Caterham....( hot XE I think)
He got a timed run before it rained.....
That would be the Nicholl car Colin. Q***DSA if memory serves me.
Just done a web search - this car
Anyways - nice to see you again. Kames on Saturday for me and if I can manage I'll come down on Sunday as well for some moral support
yep...thats the one.father and son.Craig's the son, Alan's the dad.......Craig won it.....
Dont want moral support.....!
will be tooo busy shi**ing myself.....
No need - you've already been round. Just go a bit / lot quicker....
Go and enjoy yourself - that's what I'll be doing.
Eventually
if I go any faster with those tyres o mine I'll be in the weeds!
Get them tyres down to your nearest tyre retreading place. There's a place here in Cumbernauld called Bandag that will shave them for you - those tyres need shredded
John, I'd appreciate any pics you might have of the car.
cheers---john---
John.....
well done...you won your class too....
Cheers for that, I think the result would have been a bit different if the weather hadn't intervened.
John, David doesn't have an entry for you for Saturday !!
