I'd just like to thank you to Nik, Harry and Alan for making me and the boys feel so welcome yesterday and a MASSIVE apology to Harry who I forgot to buy a coffee for :oops: I'm really sorry but completely missed you stuck on the other side of the Autotest circuit :oops: I'll buy you one next time.

Well done guys for an excellant day you did Big Power proud :thumb:

And Nik how you didn't pull that young idiot out of his car was beyond me :x

Now that was a good way to spend a Saturday, good company and car enthusiasts to boot
We have an excellent circuit designer in Nik, probably a sign of a misspent youth, it really tested the car and driver and ought to become the Standard for Auto-Tests
Allan is now recognised as the "Big Power" Police Instructor what started out as a ride in the Police Scooby ended up with him instructing a couple of the pursuit drivers
Julian was obviously miffed at not getting a ride as he trashed the time set by Allans students.
As for not getting a coffee I would only have needed the loo so it was probably better that I didnt get one
Thanks for a great day and look forward to the next one
Harry

He was on a mission to give the "Stag" (Police version of some bloke on the telly who wears white race overalls and helmet) his diploma in Auto-Testing and I think possibly to get practice at standing on the podium (I have pics to go with this but bu**ered if I know how to get them onto this site. He was pretty focussed Russ you will have your work cut out to beat him next Sunday I would revert to sabbotage it might be more sucsessful

Jamie has been in contact with me to pass on his thanks and gratitude to Alain, Harry, Julian and Nik. There will be an official 'Thank You' in due course from MSV

(I'll keep you posted)

A lovely write up and summary Nik. I wonder how restrained the Police would have been in the same circumstances with the cock jockey who endangered you? Glad you were OK.

I had been assured by Gary Szarbo that they had a route sorted, but as you've come up with something challenging, maybe we can see about using that for the runs on the 20th? I'll ask Jamie and see.

Thanks again Guys. Genuinely chuffed with your superlative effort.

No probs Stuart,
Just glad I could help out and return some effort for a day instead of just taking BP for granted

I know myself, Donna and the boys had a great day and it would be nice if we could do this again on a larger scale in the future and its good PR between us and the police.

It was an honour to represent the club and to run such an event along side MSV and the local police.

Thanks for the compliments on the layout of the course

I still have the plan of the layout if you want to use it on the 20th Stu.

Great day was had by all I hope.

The feedback from the circuit was really very positive indeed, so I think you can safely say that it was a success from the perspective of your involvement.

Well done again (PS Who's got the banner?

)
