    Area Reps

    I also raised this concern a handful of times about splitting the region up into London and Essex areas, the admin in question I raised the issue said 'it would be looked into' but nothing happened. Not my problem anymore lol :p Having said that and regards to Jonesys post you have to remember...

    Area Reps

    Bingo, organising stuff was a royal nightmare and 9 out of 10 meets got cancelled due to lack of interest. Gave up eventually to be honest. Happy to step down seeing as I don't own a 197 anymore! :(

    I know I shouldn't LOL

    Don't expect to see a dear on a race track, but seeing as its technically a public toll road I suppose there's very little room for a compensation claim for damages.

    Why is there a sound limit on tracks?

    People living nearby complaining so the tracks have to come to an agreement with the council, otherwise they can't operate. And yes I know if your going to complain why buy a house near a race track! But we all know how upside down this country is.

    My opinion of RAC has rapidly gone down...

    RAC are robbing *******s, when the 172 broke down at Cadwell in Feb I didn't have recovery. Regardless phoned RAC to join and get recovery I was told it'd be £120 membership and £200 for the recovery on a flatbed. Soon as the cars strapped onto the truck mechanic rings his firm who then want to...

    Victim of Road Rage

    This is why I keep a fire extinguisher at hand lol, 1kg of dry powder to the face will incapacitate the burliest of angry men ;) Unfortunately this stuff is becoming all too common, I blame it mainly on immigrants who have little regard for our stronger road conduct.
