I had clearly had too much Sun yesterday Gaz....oops! Hopefully a skinfull of pish at the NATS will keep us together John....you can look after me if you dont mind please. I seem to remember getting bundled into a car last year by Sinny, abducted, then delivered to a sopping wet tent in prep for the worst nights sleep I have ever had!!

Good weekend with a bit of drama thrown in. Ran a pb 14.87, took out the number 1 qualifier in the gamblers which gave me a bye run to the semi and then the clouds opened. Great fun even if i did have to share a caravan with John and my buddy which led to the usual 3 in a bed jokes the following morning.
Just like to also say thanks to Chris for kindly letting us use his caravan and Beavis and Cliff's mate Jerry who loaned us some extra blankets and things as we planned to go home sun but ended up winging it.

No point in being shy............I did stop at asking you to move over and let me in though!!!:D

Anybody find out what happened to Identity Crisis in the end. Launched hard, wheels up and just stopped dead??

At a rough guess I'd say rear axle blew just after the hit........
