race at silverstone 6 septemebr

Hi Ed

You will see from the timetable we are the first practice session, and there is also a note to say you can sign on from 4 to 6 on the Friday if you want. Consequently, I am going to try and make it there about 6, but might not be there till a bit later.

I will be in the Mk4 as the engine is still out of the Mk2.

Sadly I am working on the Sunday

Talked with Joe East at MSVR today.

Tickets being posted first class today

Oh Bugger first practice and last race i wish i had me new Van now.

Wow they even have an Affro smilie love it

Edward
Will you be giving Zoe and the children a weekend away or is this a Man only thing?

It's a family thing bringing number one and number two sprog as well as number one wife. Still look for number two

Entry list here:

20 cars in total, with a good selection of classes

Wow thats some serious cars

Well I'm up against a Tiger RS6 of stu Fenton, you take the p1$$ out of me for what I spend on my car (it's not as much as you think) but his engine will be more than my motorhome is worth, giving him 80bhp more so it will be fun trying to keep up.

Billy how do you fancy your chances of beating the GT3 in your moped powered creation?

Not a chance!

He's doing 1:01.5 laps in that Porsche.

Looking to have a good scrap with the Silouette Tigra, and maybe a couple of the Crossles.

Oooooer currently planning how not to qualify last

Hi John

I reckon you will have a good scrap with the Ginetta

Looks like a battle with the BMWs for me if I can keep them behind me
on the straights.

Well ive just had a look on Tsl the lad in the E46 M3 is doing the same times as me on the GP @ SILVERSTONE (2.31) the other M3 driver I cant find any info on but he has raced a 325 and an Alfa

what kind of times do the Crossle do

effin quick ones! but not all of them, see here:

Lol yes very quick ! Incidently Billy what kind of time does the mk4 do around the Gp Circuit ! And I want your real time not one of your sandbaging for the Birkett times

Hi Ian

Not sure off-hand, but I have never got to grips with the GP circuit in the Mk4 as it hits the rev limiter in top just as you go under the bridge along Hanger Straight, from that point on you have to ease on the throttle to hold it just below max revs.

With regards the National circuit it has once done a high 1:05 but generally does very low 1:06's.

Hows your engine looking?

I reckon we are going to have a good race

I filtered the oil this morning and it all looks good the bits I saw in the oil were paint flakes that must have been in the oil drainer already

I still have no turbo though

Good to hear they were not white-metal
Those flakes probably got dislodged when you bumped that yellow car driven by that old git at Donington

The turbo has just arrived

Great news

The weather forecast is looking good too

Looks like it will be me and John fighting for honours for last place then.

I bet JD would not be such a defeatist Edwardo.

I don't care where I finish as long as I have a battle and learn something, not defeatist at all just an observation, i will try my best to beat the BMWs and if there is any chance of passing something with a Ford badge on it I'm all over it

No worries there Edward its less than 36 hours to the race and I still havent heard the bugger run racing has taught me that fate nevers favours the brave so I suspect I will brake down on the exit of copse

Iam

If your interested, I will work out Performance Index scores for both races.

Re staying over on the Saturday night, here is the event map:

I reckon we will be best hiding out the back of area 13 or maybe 12

PMSL have you seen the name of some of the clubs attending ! I hope you have your best baseball cap and vans with you some words for your dictionary billy

sic = very good
blinging = shiny
its the shit = very good
yoof = young people
m8 = friend
Shank = knife
cos = because

A common response if you have no idea what they are talking about

yeh man its like will sic innit dem rims are blinging ya no

That reminded me of a Scottish comedian who said about all the sports direct stores in Glasgow running out of baseball bats, but they still had plenty of balls left.
Made me chuckle
