Brands Hatch

Any one know what happened to cause the first red flag in the stock hatch heat race?

jonbryant · 22 Apr 2008, 08:13 (Ref:2183700)

Was that the one on its roof at Clearways?

**Snapper Baz** · 22 Apr 2008, 08:17 (Ref:2183703)

...or a "photographer" flat on his face at Graham Hill???

BSA Susie · 22 Apr 2008, 12:21 (Ref:2183889)

There were so many reds that day, I lost track! Especially as the red flag I had to wave was bigger than a bed sheet! I was knackered! Good day though.

smeggy · 22 Apr 2008, 14:24 (Ref:2184055)

Yeah I had a good day, post 7 was fun...fantactic flaggy!! Loads of sweets, and Richard's socks as a constant soure of amusement!!! JB did you get any photo's of those socks??

danccooke · 22 Apr 2008, 14:41 (Ref:2184078)

you mean the AWS new line in plus4's or were they nadger warmers

tubbylardo · 22 Apr 2008, 15:27 (Ref:2184131)

Richards socks could be seen from post 4 as well.

Very impressive sockage.

jonbryant · 22 Apr 2008, 15:33 (Ref:2184139)

Yes I do have evidence of the socks.

And I think I'm entitled to duck out of the way fo a Stock hatch when it hits the wall too close to take a photo of...

gurl

EvilPumpkin · 22 Apr 2008, 15:54 (Ref:2184159)

yeah he's gotten really wimpy since he got his invisible force field!

danccooke · 22 Apr 2008, 16:02 (Ref:2184172)

was a good impression of a cow eating grass though.

maybe you could do with an alarm to tell you when things are happening. I know of a good one

BSA Susie · 22 Apr 2008, 16:55 (Ref:2184210)

What does the alarm sound like again Dan?!

I had forgotten witnessing JB turn yellow and head for cover!
Very funny!

danccooke · 22 Apr 2008, 17:04 (Ref:2184218)

I am not sure where that noise and idea came from. I thought it was really funny but at first everyone had a really stunned looks on thier faces except Jon who had a startled look on his.

Eddy V · 22 Apr 2008, 17:05 (Ref:2184220)

Come one, give some details what happened there.
Jon in a bad position or what?

danccooke · 22 Apr 2008, 17:14 (Ref:2184227)

no we were all sitting down on the bails having a chuckle and jon said he could hear an alarm, I couldn't so decided to make "woooo woooo woooo" noise rather loudly in the general direction of JB who was sad right next to me.

Everyone looked at me like i had gone mad, which in all fairness was fairly true. I hadn't seen my friend Caffeine all day and had just drunk a litre of kick.
JB wasn't too stunned to punch me in the arm

As for the stock hatch one hit the tyres on the run down to 7 fairly close to Mr Bryant seeing it at the last moment and catching him a little by surprise he opted for eating grass. If in doubt the right thing to do.

Eddy V · 22 Apr 2008, 17:18 (Ref:2184229)

Oh wish I'd seen that last part.
Or the first one for that matter.

Yep. Happened right in front of me!!

That caused the second red flag of the day.

danccooke · 22 Apr 2008, 17:59 (Ref:2184259)

How many were there in the end? I remember hearing that one on the scanner, it was broken up but I caught, .....23......drive ok.....still on roof.
I thought well then thats gonna be a red.

It was a good weekend. Would be nice to have one meet though where we don't have to don the wet weathers.

There was only the 1 on the roof up at post 23.

danccooke · 22 Apr 2008, 18:19 (Ref:2184278)

sorry poor grammar on my behalf, how many red flags were there in the end?

I heard the one on it's roof over the scanner.

It's been a long day.

Stuart H · 22 Apr 2008, 19:04 (Ref:2184293)

2 red flags in the end.

danccooke · 22 Apr 2008, 20:01 (Ref:2184335)

there were more than two red flags surely, I was talking about the whole weekend, sorry possibly crossed wires there.

Eddy V · 22 Apr 2008, 20:23 (Ref:2184355)

Guess there must have been close to (or even more than) 12 over the weekend.

BrendanM · 23 Apr 2008, 07:42 (Ref:2184627)

I think last years 750 MC Formula V festival (also at Brands) took the clubs PB with 23 red flags over the 2 days....
