Andys summary was spot on. 'Walking the walk' brings risks and rewards and I think that's why there is the level of respect for each other on here that few other sites enjoy.

We did try and get Maz to take the Gloria uber-barge around there but he was having none of it (Maybe next time)

fyi - paypal address is sales @ bigpower . co . uk (without the spaces in it)

Andy - spot on mate - there but for the grace of ......... but it is a number's game and the more walking of the walk you do and some point your feet are going to slip.

I think that quote should be attributed to Jason?

Gerry walks the walk twice most weekends in a fairly committed way. I thought I did a fair bit of motorsport until I met him, he makes me feel like a track-dodging armchair-merchant.

Just read all of the above.....

Unfortunately i can't say it was a good night. lol

Picked up the Supra earlier that day all in good so far, made the trip to snet in the rain said a quick hello then straight on for a go.

Car didn't feel right AT ALL but carried on as you do.... came off feeling that this is going to be a struggle..... had one more go later and the car cut out a couple of times......

Came off let the car rest and watched for a bit. Later tried to start car and take it for a little test run where it then cut out and stopped.........

FUBAR

Called the AA at 6:30pm and finally got home at 11:30pm. totally pi$$ed off to say the least.

A big thank you to Stu, Andy and Ian who all made sure i was ok.

The Supra now sits on my drive way waiting to be sold as spares or repair.

Nice to meet more new members and hopefully will have more fun/luck next time. lol

Glad to hear Gerry is ok and cars not too bad.

That was a very expensive night for a 'cheap' car. Sorry to hear it.

Gutted for you Gerry

I hope my Fence Fund donation will help me to overcome the guilt I have for encouraging you to give it a go on the night.

Don't feel guilty, I'm a big boy now (although that does come into question when standing anywhere near Stu) and should be able to make decisions for myself. :roll:

As for the Fence Fund, Thank you to everyone who's contributed. I hope we never have a situation where I can return the favours. IYSWIM
