I noticed!!

You and jim are usually pretty well matched, but with your impersonation of teen wolf you went to another level.

Good Man

Lee, don't tell the 8th lads, but it's easy compared to 10th, it's like in slow motion!

That is obviously a joke

Cool, now the big boys are at it, using Jimmy's pictures without asking:

Funny it says he was using the Losi fuel, I saw someone run to the van to get that - oh and the Losi tyres to replace the Prolines

What you doing lee! They 'borrowed' my entire neo08 report for their news site - don't give them free advertising as well!


Northy - what I saw looks totally fine with the day 3&4 thing.. I'm happy for them and any news site to put a small bit of the report with a link to the full thing... but it was the other stuff with the whole report and NO link that was totally wrong.

Ooopps, just noticed that about days 3 & 4.

But I'd still urge people not to buy from them, or better still email saying you would have done if they hadn't ripped off content from your mates website

Comments do appear at bottom of the page, day 2 comments & day 3/4, maybe that will prompt em to ask first or a nice linky..........or provide kits/parts for review !!! that would be nice

A lot were doing the full 10 mins.

for some reason Stu ran out of fuel on 8.5 mins in his final - which was gutting as we had to run back to the pits with it and he went down from about 5th or 6th to 11th

that was one of the main reasons I didn't try and make it.

I had absolutely no idea how long I could do on a tank and I thought you would have had to do the full 10 min on one tank to stand a chance.
