The Boys indeed done good, and then some. Tow back, stop in pit, have thirty seconds quite time, get out and service the car, not this weekend, get out and the car's already unhitched and on it's way up, stands at the ready, by the time I'd sorted my kit the tyres were clean, battery on charge and fuel at the ready. I watched it twice and thought "What the hell am I doing, stand back, you're only slowing things up" I don't think they fully realised how much difference they made, the "manager" managed and the driver drove, result ?, we made our first placing in two years ! , not only that but did it in the tightest field I can remember seeing, after the first round run we were point zero one three seconds off, and that was good enough for fourth place ! after the third round we were good enough for second place but in the last run the driver got distracted chasing a faster car and missed his lift point by maybe ten feet (moving at almost 160 foot a second at the time
) and gave it away.
Lesley and I had a really first class weekend, thanks Guys, you made it. We are out again in two weeks time, if you can join us again it would be brilliant.
