that NBR dude

Recommended Posts

I was thinking of marshalling, but it meant getting up at 5am (sign on to marshall at 7 :S ) plus i have no car to get there, and i want to ride pompey tomrorrow.

If i had a car i would be in bournemouth right now marshalling the special stage, as i was asked to do that, but wasnt sure what i was doing tonight, and now i know i can't get there! grrr. :(

Yeah I went tonight.

I was stood on the bandstand side of the winter gardens right near the burger van.

Got to see a few messups on the first chicane. One car nearly went head on into the barrier, a few has some close calls loosing the back end on the same chicane and it was nice and amusing when a 206 clipped the back end on the metal fencing coming out of the same chicane.

Cars included 205's, 206's, a 106, a couple of old Escourts, an Escourt Cosworth, a shed load of Impreza's etc...

I was most disgusted to see a Corsa on the start line, then the thing was rapid as f**k :blink:

I have also never in my life seen a Land Rover go so fast :o

If I could get there tomorrow I would deffinately be there but I have no way of getting there :(

haha yea Tic, them Disco's go well fast. Dont know if I would be comfortable going that fast in one!

Big up to the number 82 Pug 205 GTi driven by Andy and Stu from BikeLab in Poole :D They managed to keep it on the road all day, which is impressive.

A total of 22 cars retired out of the 70+ that started this morning :mellow:

Haha Ol' Doddy's clutch went, which was a bit harsh!

Saw one of the leading Subaru's in a ditch on the way out of the sawmill stage! Was funny!

My mates dad was racing in the Red Mk2 Escort, Number 71, came first in his class!

All in all was an ace day!

And I got to drag the ladyfriend along for some company!

RAD :D

Friday night was shitting cold, and Tic, we were probably stood behind you!

Skinny jeans and Snowboard jackets = way to go baby!
