2017 Nats

Post by Demon James »

We could only make the Saturday this year, but MAN what a day :D :thumbright:

A huge Thank-you to all involved and to the track staff, that's the first time I've driven the Dart on a prepped track and the first outing without wheel spin.

I had great support from my family as ever and also from new friends with lots of advice, cheers to Paul and Heather for checking out my tyre and smoke patterns. Made a lot of difference.

I even managed two new fastest times in both the Dart and the Demon (bless it) A trunk full of 6 chairs, copious food supplies, 8 litres of water, a spare helmet, shed loads of clothes ( kids eh :roll: we were only there a day :lol: ) and other gear. No time to prep it in any way, front tyres way too soft, rears? No idea :lol: and we did a 14.5 just for laughs, loved it as much as any faster car.

As for the Dart, the times are now headed in the right direction and the bug has well and truely bitten.

Everyone I spoke too seemed to be having a brilliant weekend despite the evening moisture.

As ever it was great to put some names to faces, even after 6 years I'm amazed at who I haven't met yet.

Superb event, superb club. Again, Thanks to all, James :thumbright:

Cheers chap, it's been nice to receive lots of positive comments on the colour, always a tricky decision to make, so many ways it could go :)
