Peter, Tris says according to the timing you had the fastest pitstop in the A.
yep, wasn't a very pleasant day at all. Can't understand it all the weather forecasts said it was going to be dry all day, sorry.
Paul still can't quite do it, what is it now 4 poles in the A and still haven't won one yet. Your luck must change soon mate.
Can honestly say I've never seen so many oneway bearings give up in one day, thank god for WD40 or whatever hybrid many were using.
High point of my day was meeting some old friends I haven't seen for a number of years, Aston and Nigel Gilson, it was really good to see you both again, even if it did take me half a day to realise it was you 2 guys. Aston with no hair and Nigel, well it was good to see you mobile again.
All 3 finals were very close races, Frank and Trevor in electric very close, Matt just winning the B, and as Paul said loosing the A on the last lap thanks to a mystery failsafe cut.
Well we can do it all again in December, just hope we get some better weather. |
