Title: MALLORY!
Post by: Pete Sparrow on September 17, 2006, 20:14:21
Just wanted to say that I thought the weekend was excellent.Great to see so many cars out but also to see faces that didn't get their cars out but came anyway.
I hope that with a race like this ending our year it will be incentive to get out a bit more next year. look out for some new faces at the the front, Richard Hollis, Christian and hopefully Oli Hall (don't sell it mate)
If anybody attended the pub on Saturday evening/Sunday morning I just wish some one had told us that there was not a prize for who could stay up the latest thus rendering Sunday almost a waste of time. (thank you Mick for Sex Bomb - utterly timeless)
A big thank you to all my team for an excellent year and all the people making our racing happen.

:D

What a great race, thoroughly enjoyed it, good, exciting & close racing.
Just goes to show how good sprint racing is with a full grid !!!!
Imagine 3 races like TCC format over the weekend, better than enduros.

Well done Spatlo.

:D Nice footage of Mr. Williams' hairpin incident, from the only part of the track I couldn't see properly!

Great race, thoroughly enjoyed it! Looking forward to more mayhem next year.

Brilliant footage! Could it be any better?????

You can hear the commentator mentioning my progress through the field and then 'last of the late brakers Leith' solves his understeer problem using Trevors car while I make off into the distance..... and its all captured on film forever!

Im trying not to laugh but, Haahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah....

Seriously though, what a weekend. The racing was amazing and I still have a grin on my face now! The car is officially off the market and I'm starting to save for next year.

PS. Just incase I didnt say it to you in the pub at some time after 1am..... "I love you"

OH GOD!!!!

I had hoped the rather large volume of Jack Daniel's that I consumed last Saturday night had permanantly erased the memory of Olly's singing!!!!

Good to hear you're looking to race next year, though!!

Cheers

Trevor
