That reminds me, I need to email circuit days to see if they are going to transfer my days to next year.
I have 4 left on sakhir, and 1 free from the nurburgring trip.
Chris did say I could transer. So we will see what they say.
Don't tell DuncanR :whistle:

Good evening and well organised Shane.:thumbs:
Track was OK when it dried out. Good laps at the end and Duncan got my first spin on camera! Cold tyres is my excuse.:whistle:
Shane, your off was spectacular. Hurry up and post em' up Duncan.
Good to see everyone and new faces.
Jimbo your a cretin! Lost in the bog at the Chinese taking the longest dump of all time and lost again in Modo bogs missing your taxi back! Your a liability but I still love you. :smt055:hahaha:Just found this pic on my phone from last week,Jimbo on the bog :whistle:http://edge.ebaumsworld.com/mediaFiles/picture/456854/419406.jpg

:hahaha::hahaha: And that was in the Chinese before we went out!:supz:
I've just gone through my vbox data from Oulton. Only laps worth looking at were at 4pm, end of the day. Strung 4-5 2min 2 sec's laps together. I was pretty cautious all day in the damp. No grip at all but only just getting into some sort of stride at the end. I was low 1min 59's last year, so probably par for the course for me in those conditions.
Rear Cups are way too old and took an absolute age to warm up in the dry at the end of the day but at least I had brakes unlike Shim.;)

Very much so shim, if cslut had not been so alert I would have just t boned him on shell corner.
Watching it back I think I did rather well not to smash the barrier on the left. As soon as reached the grass I just relaxed, at that point I was passenger, I just set the steering up for when it arrived back on track
It could have been a lot worse, seen many a crash there, most hit the barrier on the left that I narrowly avoided.
I remember seeing a side profile of a csl in the rear-view mirror in my peripheral and thinking "damn, black csl's look good", before informing my passenger, "we may be currently involved in an accident". He was like, "huh?.....where? Ah....there!".
All good fun.

Goodness knows what happens to this poor lad ! ... maybe cold Cups, ...possibly a knackered diff !! .... lack of experience ?? :smt102 ... or maybe he just didnt want an SB CSL on WARM CUPS with an excellent pilot on board to get in front of him !!! :whistle::hahaha::smt055

:thumbs:About fuckin' time Duncan, took long enough!;)
Actually it went like this: exit the pit lane on cold cups directly into the path of some old fart in a CSL, try to block and generally hamper as much as possible, spend too much time looking behind me for said coont in a black CSL and by the time I looked forward again I was looking directly at the fooker! For some reason he was shrouded in tyre smoke!:smt102:hahaha:

Ha Ha, rear wheel to front wheel drive and the car weighs nothing, that's my excuse :whistle: no excuse for the air brakes, it just flipped open in one of my spins :hahaha:
That was one long reverse exiting druids, I couldn't believe it ended with no damage :hahaha::hahaha::hahaha: I honestly thought I could nail it out of druids and straighten it up but Howard was having none of it and told me to brake and brake HARD :whistle:
