Nope. Ran out of time and hoped I was going to buy them there. Bloody exhaust fell off on the way out tonight :o One of those days.

Who said it wasn't an early start?

Feels bloody early to me :)

Don't miss yourself out of the accolades Trev, you looked to be going really well with bags of commitment through the fast coners.

I think the day was enjoyed by everyone from the look of the smiles. Stu was a picture, each time he came back from a run, his smile was as broad as his shoulders :D 2nd in class in a car that wouldn't be considered rapid by any stretch.

Ben came a good second in class. Good to see Graham having a serious go in his new Scooby. Will Andy manage to sort a car that will last an event? Too much choice bud. Also a rare treat to see our very own SprintChief, Spence :D

See some of you next week at Debden. :thumb: :D

Great laugh guys, good to see Stu and Graham pop their sprint cherries and the veterans do their speedy thing.

Spence was very pleased with the entry, every single Jap car there were competing in the JISC champs; off the top of my head;

DJ Ben - Civic
Trev - Impreza
DJ Graham - Impreza
Me - oily uber wagon
Gerry - Even more uber wagon
John Start - Evo8
Logan - Evo6
Pete Williams - Supra

and Big Stu in his slightly less Jap motor, but he's definitely part of the crew and even joined HCC as well as GBMC, top man. For those without Jap hardware, you dont have to have a Jap motor to come sprinting with us, you just won't score JISC points.

We will have a GT4 joining us at Bentwaters when Russell enters the fray, and I hear rumours of James' Orange and Garys' monster Evo putting in some guest appearances.

Old 'blue light' Grimesey has entered when his car is finished and is offering special rates to the JISC crew from his mobile sprint shop.

I also saw Gerry talking Mike Blackmore into it (I think he enjoys the competition).

Spence reckons this is the highest entry of Harrow CC competitors at a sprint for 20 years, so the JISC and BP have really helped rejuvenate a historic club that was genuinely struggling to survive.

PS. Curses, just looked at the results sheet and saw a Nissan Micra in there. The one that got away!

Echo above comments, good day out, changeable weather, as aways very competitive class B3.

Was good to meet Graham, and see Stuart hounding the Golf round :D


Was a shame your uber wagon failed you Andy, hope its an easy fix :!:
