Love it or hate it, FWoman certainly provokes discussion.

Better to be talked about than not!

Kelvin · 20 Jul 2004, 05:11 (Ref:1040933)

I saw the repeat last night and thought it was pretty good, one or two good moves, some usual mistakes also, that any novice would make..

ss_collins · 20 Jul 2004, 08:20 (Ref:1040990)

a bit worrying a couple of times whn cars speared back onto the track

Fizzgig · 20 Jul 2004, 08:28 (Ref:1040993)

A bit worrying as in the MSA video that comes with your driving pack there is a section on spins and what to do. De-clutch and apply the brake! This should have prevented the cars spearing across the track again. Not in all cases but at the speeds they were doing it should have been enough.

ss_collins · 20 Jul 2004, 08:51 (Ref:1041012)

yess I did wonder if the CofC had words.

Fizzgig · 20 Jul 2004, 11:12 (Ref:1041107)

Just another question. Amy Handford didn't finish the first race due to a mechanical problem so did not gain an ungrade signature. She had the same problem in the second race but was told to stay out to gain a signature. At one one point she was doing 6 mph as cars coming upon her were doing 60 mph! At knickerbrook she stopped dead to let 6 cars go by(I know I was there). As she was not going at racing speed and causing danger to herself and others, should she have recieved a black flag? Should she have recieved an upgrading signsture from the CofC? Can anyone enlighten me as to what should be the correct procedure?

ss_collins · 20 Jul 2004, 11:41 (Ref:1041131)

I had a similar problem at Brands a few weeks back - no power - but I continued - either till I got black flagged o got bored.

In the end I wasn't classified a finisher because I didn't do 80% of the winners distance. so no squiggle

qaz · 20 Jul 2004, 15:20 (Ref:1041368)

common sense would have said make it back to the pits and park it.forget the signature.

ss_collins · 20 Jul 2004, 16:13 (Ref:1041402)

yes but she a novice and would do what she was told

johnw · 20 Jul 2004, 16:20 (Ref:1041410)

Are you moving to pigeon speak Sam?

Was she causing any danger? On the part of the track I could see she was keeping well out of the way.

Situations like that can be covered by the white flag.

Lauren · 20 Jul 2004, 18:05 (Ref:1041500)

Don't think any of the 16 will be in the summer series tbh. its more for those who already have experience or for those in the 'top 50' who didn't make it through and still want to race the RX8

Fizzgig · 20 Jul 2004, 20:14 (Ref:1041607)

Hi Lauren. Good luck on Sunday. If you're not planning on doing the summer series (if that ever happens anyway), what are you plans post FW?

ss_collins · 20 Jul 2004, 20:47 (Ref:1041655)

yup me not speek nice inglish. Mee think all FW drivers should have play in Vee!

Lauren · 21 Jul 2004, 07:31 (Ref:1041899)

Thank you! As for my plans post FW i'm not overly sure where to go with it. I have some club racing i'm doing which is a free drive for fun really racing the MR2 club's MR2 (!) at Mallory and Cadwell through August.

After that i don't really know where to go, guess i haven't had time to think about it at the moment. I am looking to do my ARDS instructors course at some point as BookaTrack are keen for me to do it.

Obviously i'd love to race professionally, its going to be a case of seeing what happens over the next few months I think.

djinvicta · 21 Jul 2004, 20:39 (Ref:1042493)

Think the lady could do with a sponsor?

Fizzgig · 22 Jul 2004, 07:48 (Ref:1042902)

She along with the rest of us!!!!!

ss_collins · 22 Jul 2004, 08:18 (Ref:1042914)

dj was that an offer - should I plug you for my pickups campaign??? actually the FW girls should be good for getting sponsors on board as they are very attractive (to sponsors)

and on that note I think I'll stop because I'm gonna get laughed at...
