Matt & Phil lol

Yeah ! had fun today cheers Roger & Woody etc

Pity about my wipeout in the final but heyhoo (Thanks for the fix lads , you know who you are cheers)Thought i did really well in my 4 heats not to many crashes, good track & kept it quite consistant! even though the points system (in my opinon) is rubbish and i kept losing points all day but had a good laugh and seen some funny crashes and breakages look forward to the last meet

Default top day

wicked day ,the track was awsome just like last time (open but technical
in places) made for close fun racing with lots of overtaking places
was having the best day ever until my car set on fire in the 4th round
still qualified 8th and finished 6th ((((big thanks to damien for the loan of the speedo in the final)))))

That was your car? I've seen speedos catch fire before, but yours was something else!

I'm not sure I really like the track that much myself. I'm allowed to say that, I designed it! It just wasn't quite what I had in mind I guess - or maybe its just that I hated the far corner by the mats due to the kicker jump I just couldn't get right and the staggered boards didn't work like I wanted. But I guess I'm still learning this stuff.

But I had fun, even if the day was mostly spent wrenching cars - 2 of mine, 1 of Johnny's and Mark's. Might just switch to being a full time mechanic - its not like my driving is any good!

I had the best day so far loved the track. Didnt think it was going to be so good when I got there and I was in the top heat 4wd, but I ended up with 2 10th in rounds well happy with that. Just shows how you up your game when driving with better drivers. The final was good as well I will get you next time Mr Caro LOL.

Now an apology for my potty mouth in the final I was well in the grove and made a mistake trying to catch Nick the marshal did his best with cars coming at him from everywhere and I start shouting at him not cool .

Thanks the woodys for this fantastic series I am not doing the last one but I realy enjoyed all the ones I have done.

Hope not too many cars were damaged going down the slope. GO SLOWER!

Super day - thanks Rog/Stu and the rest of the Bury guys for an excellent track.

My driving was absolutely crap [even worse than usual], so apologies to anyone I crossed. I just couldn't understand why both cars were all over the place.

On strip down I found I’d fitted a B4 front shock shaft to my B44 - hence it being rather lopsided on the jumps and the rear shock tower was split, but you could only see this when you pushed the tower. My X6 had massive understeer and I’ve found one of the front shock springs had actually cracked in two, again I didn’t notice this until stripped down. Hey ho – only me to blame.

I slid down the slope and came to a stop millimeters from the fence but didn't actually hit it! In my defence though I was driving my wifes car with doesn't handle like mine at all. But then I was only in that car because my car is so crap in the snow that at the previous snowy round I was only able to leave because a couple of the Bury guys pushed me all the way up the hill!
