Gonna need that luck - trying to get an SMG box to stay in one piece for 2 hours is a big enough challenge on it's own...
I'll be over the moon if we finish :D

Well done guys, and nice to meet you there!
Your pace looked good, so hopefully when you attempt reading the rules next time you will do well :whistle:
Hope the bug has well and truly bitten :thumbs:

Nice to meet you Bealo, will do that email later or first thing tomorrow.
lol, cheers Rob. I shall be reading them very carefully over this weekend!
I've done my sums again and we wouldn't have had first place in class anyway, just second. Great day, bug has bitten in a big way, will decide about the brands round once we know what the repair bill for the car is, fingers crossed just some coil packs will sort the misfire, and hopefully it doesn't need a whole new 'box...
The old bus did good to last for 2 hours even if the last few laps were a bit tentative in a will the car expire kind of way, chuffed.
Massive thank you to shimmy for lending me some wheels for the day too after we were let down at the 11th hour, really appreciated.
