Nice one Andy, great news mate.

I thought Clive would be in Pro class going from his comments the other night ?? I fact a couple of people I spoke to thought he might have been going for EDC to compete with some of us !!!

Sorry i didnt get up this weekend to watch, fingers crossed the car should be finished today and mapped again tomorrow, so no more worries about reliability.

See you in a couple of weeks,

J.
I have issues !!! :ack2:....I used to be average, now I reminisce !!!

Cheers James, I got it welded and went for it like you suggested. It was definitely an eye opener as you had said it would be, but I was made up just to be considered competent enough to get a licence. I've got alot of practice to do to get anywhere near top 8 qualifiers in amateur, but I'm determined to have a go.

People like Pete Barber and Paul Smith though (to name but two), just awesome to watch. Cant wait to see you in action at North Weald, as a spectator sport its about as spectacular as it gets.

I doubt I'd have done it without your advice and encouragement, so a beer in your direction is in order when we get the opportunity.

Hi Clive, I heard we were scored within a point or two (which I was a bit surprised about as your transitions looked way better than mine felt), but that was 2ndhand info from the crowd, Mark said to chase Matt up for the scores if there was a copy still handy.

Good to see you in action, I wouldnt have wanted to go last! That was ballsy :)

It was a FANTASTIC DAY!

Well done to all who competed!

The standard of driving from everyone is just getting better and better! Seat time, thats whats needed, i did try to move things on a bit during the practice sessions.

Glad you all had a good day, makes the effort worth while 8)

Sorry i never gave bigpower a shout over the mic, i had so much to concentrate on what with one thing and another..

Shame you couldn't make it James, mind you there's no gravel at Norfolk :D :D :D

See you at the weekend :thumb:
BDC for the win !

Tough job you got there Mark what with marshalling sessions, drivers briefings and the commentary. You must have been whacked Saturday night.
