Marko, was that directed at me, perchance!

Great write up, Fordie and Glyn. The look of sheer determination on Glyn's face when he
a) lost his licence and
b) lost his seat
only went to prove that the hitherto unsubstantiated claims that 'he is a track god' have now been fully proved.

I've only ever seen him look that determined when he's trying to divert the BHC rideout to somewhere that he can get a 3rd brekkie

He looked determined changing his tyres with only 5 mins to go before the first session started

Glyn, not only are you a true track god youre getting nifty on the keyboard too . I must admit when I can round that right hander on the back straight and saw a piece of junk the size of five house bricks in line Im thinking what poor sod has dump those, bloody pikies again no doubt or those Norfuk boys try one one Got to do some thing to slow us down. Got back to the "Paddock" to see you seatless,hope you didnt see the smile under my visor We BHC boys do take the biscuit some times. Terrific day. Pity KeffyB and Jools was'nt around to make up the team all though we had a few new lads to make up for it . 4D

Cracking day!

Lot's of work taking the van but the appreciation makes up for it- cheers.

Van is still loaded so think I'll do another trackday before Cadwell- seems rude not to. Might try and go back to Snetterton as I think I was nearly getting up to speed and a fifth session would have proved it.

I was right behind Glyn when he highsided and all I can remember is thinking "Glyn, NOOOOOOO," how he managed to stay on was a bloody miracle, as was how I managed to avoid him and his seat. Damn close I tell you.

DD race was brilliant- I did ask Psyclist to take his place but he was having none of it.

S'pose I'd better start begging for sponsorship and get my name down for next year- anybody up for team Manager?

Roll on Cadwell.

Mark

Glyn!!

I came around Sears in that session and thought "How the f*** do you lose a seat and not have any other debri around?"

Glad to see you stayed on mate, not an easy thing when your gentle steed turns into a Bronco!

It was a great day, glad you enjoyed yourself Fordie. I didn't see you out on track (I only did two sessions) but I had a play with Jon and Sparkin which was fun. Couldn't make my passes stick though

The funny thing was when I came round onto the back straight there wasn`t a flag warning you of "seat on the track" I went to the breifing and WJB didn`t mention any "extra" flags that might be shown,maybe we don`t have a flag for "Seat on track" in Narfuk yet
