I'm pretty sure we walked past each other outside the bogs mate. But I wasn't 100% it was you (it was) and didn't want to make a tit out of myself..  :ashamed: :grin:
Then saw you as we were pulling off and gave you a wave but couldn't stop as my mate was already running late..  :sad1:
Next time mate..  :wink:

Ahhh I completely missed ya, apart from when you guys where all heading off. At one point I was thinking that maybe you didnt make it, but like you say we were spending most of our time lining up for runs.

Yeh pov im sure i saw you a couple of times but wasnt 100% :ashamed: I was talking with Ash and singh123 towards the end but like most spent loads of time in the never ending que :sad1:

Next season though :drinking:

I think I saw you twice at the beginning but also wasnt too sure! Recognise the car just didnt know the face that it belonged to!

Next season for sure, hoping to make alot more shows and events next year

At least the rainy weather stayed away. Pity to hear about the shambolic organisation again. Maybe a York meet maybe better next time. Grip up there seems to be decent enough and it usually doesn't take too long to get a run.

If yorks better for getting more runs/practice in then im up for it 100%  :driver:

^^^I wanted to watch that but by the time I went up to the stands, they had stopped off for a while and were cleaning the strip!

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

ROFL! No thanks! You managed to post before me but wanted to see what the ferrari would do.

Was a bit amused as I was leaving and noticed two broken FIATs a few tens of metres outside the raceway...

TVR did a 12.8 @ 106mpg and the Scuderia did a 13.0 @ 106mph  :surprised: :confused:

Would defo be up for a York meet John. Haven't been up there for years and use to go a fair bit in my old CTR. Although organistation there wasn't much better from what I remember (far to much time spent on running bloody hot rods etc  :fighting:), BUT (and it's a big BUT) you don't have to queue with your car like you do at Pod, giving you time to watch the strip and mingle with the lads..  :wink:
