Hurry did a great job of 'learning' the track before he went on Forza. Yes I know it's not the same as actually driving the circuit but it does give you a good idea of what's coming next!  :happy2:

I was gonna say something but then figured it might be his moniker: Hurricane Hurdy, or "Hurry" for short!  :grin:

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

Forza and Gran Turismo games helped me to at least know which way the next bend was going (done thousands of laps on the games machines in total and around 35 laps actually at the ring)

1st lap ever ended up as 9'10"  B to G. :laugh:

Hopefully I'll be going again soon in something VAG  :happy2:

In the meantime - enjoy the TF all you lucky forumites who are going :drinking:

Golf R gone.

you won't make it to the Ring Joe, one of the following will happen....... (Please delete as appropriate.)

You won't be able to afford the Petrol to make it past Stafford.

or

You will be sick in Stafford (them Motorway roads are awful twisty, and the R is a bit of a boat round corners).

or

You will be break down in Stafford (Highly likely seeing as You have worked on the R).

or

You and your brother will start a college course in genealogy  (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogy), and realise that when Jay marries Steff, he won't become her Auntie's uncle brother, and then break down and be sick.

or

You will get so pissed, that next morning you wont realise you are heading in the wrong direction and end up at the Blue Oyster bar oop t'North and get dry bummed for a weekend and all will be hunky doory (no more noisy farts!), then be sick and break down at Stafford on the way back, after going the wrong way, be sick, and miss the first day at college and not realise that jay is not Steff's auntie, even though he has some decent mooobs.  Did I mention be sick?

or simply your splitter could just fall off, and then you will be sick (again Highly likely seeing as You have worked on the R)
