Bloody hell

[Gam]

Me and Rogue-197 are off to the ring in the morning and I had a delivery van decide to veer into me this afternoon causing some scuffs and bumper crack's.

Hats off to Pete for helping me because I wouldn't have had a bloody cue what to do!

Trip hasn't even begun and there's already been drama!

Front arch has a crack in it but nothing major, covered tightly with tape and Pete managed to secure it behind with some handy work.

I hope your ok fella have a Great time at the ring

All ok thanks Kev was 5 minutes from home having driven 212 miles back from Leeds!

No major damage just a pain in the arse the day before my first ring trip

That's a bit of bad luck! Hopefully it won't continue.

 

[Rogue]

I hope my handy work keeps the car together for the duration of the trip lol

 

[nutnutwelshman]

Touchdown down in zee Motherland!

 

[Gam]

Well good news is that the van driver has accepted liability for the incident so that's a weight off my shoulders was half expecting him to put up a fight even though he was in the wrong!

And on top of that I've made trips around the ring successfully without any mishaps, albeit a small one where I ran over the grass verge because I was going to fast but sssssshhh we'll keep that one quiet shall we

 

[nutnutwelshman]

GLAD the ins is ok did how is the Ring trip going try and keep four wheels on the black bits

 

[FaithlessEmo]

How many tours of the circuit have you managed?
Any videos for us?

 

[Rogue]

I do wish I'd bought or tried to borrow a gopro!

Laps have been excellent (well by my standards anyway) down in the low 9:40's. Which I'm pretty happy with considering I've never tracked a car.

Had a couple of hairy moments including a 182 on GB plates almost taking me clean of the track yesterday.

Unfortunately its rained a fair bit since Friday and you just can't hammer the cars in the wet. The track is so twitchy.

Great fun tho!
