now on BARC tv Round 5 and 6 of our championship. We did not show so great at this one, having taken a knock from the other Clio in Race 1 and one of the tuned Clio's got sorted leaving us battling for second and third in class.

Hopefully, if we can all get our heads together, we should be out racing again on Saturday 29th July at Brands Hatch. After such a long "Summer Break" (why for gods sake? its not like we race in the winter and now the "summer break" is over just at the time most of us go on holidays!) enthusiasm and momentum needs a bit of kickstartsing.
Got a few jobs done on the car including some welding one the subframe and the exhaust manifold so hopefully the car might be a bit quicker down the straights and not sound like a London taxi.
Should be a good day though as there is Britcar endurance racing on the bill and Classic Touring car and 2 CV qualifying. We are racing at 11.25 and 15.45 with practice at 9.30.
No spare tickets I am afraid but tickets can be bought on the gate. We will be in the outer paddock somewhere.

Another tough day on Saturday and one I spent most of the time watching weather forecasts. We cautiously fitted the treaded road tyres for practice due to damp patches on the track from the overnight rain. Most others chose slicks and, from the pits at least the track looked bone dry by the time we started..... no worries, pole position anyway with a fast 54.91- a good time considering!
Completely dry for the start of the race though, so slicks on and position held at the start for a few laps then 6 cars got into a marauding gang like Nascar pack racing. (see photos 2 posts down to see what I mean!) From the pits we can only see what comes past us but Riku was at the head of the pack one lap and then last of the pack the next and next time around he was first again. This group included all 3 Clio cup cars, a BMW or 2, and the most experience racer of all, Bill Richards in his Mini! Result though as by luck when the flag came out we were at the front! 7th place overall and 1st in class. Should be a good video once we get time to sort it.

As second race time approached the skies had darkened and the wind picked up- but still no rain. No way could I decide to put wets on.... the treaded road tyres were an option but delayed the decision too long so we went on Slicks. Needless to say the rain started as the grid lined up- a tense race then. Cars were off everywhere including a Sierra Cosworth into the pit wall and the Seat in the gravel at Paddock Hill. Safety car out and eventually red flagged after a few laps. Only 8 laps completed with only 5 at speed. 9th place and class second for us and much relief for us in the pit lane.


Championship positions now: We are 5th overall and first in class but Steve Rothery, although didn't catch us up this time, is fast becoming our biggest threat.
Next race August 19 or 20th Brands Hatch.

Good luck on the 19th - I will be otherwise engaged, giving a father of the bride speech. That reminds me I had better start writing it!

Video of the mad racing pack from the last race, if you only watch one of these videos let this be the one. Very close to getting the car wiped out- again.
