Well done Paul, he was crying in the car after the race

paulzinho · 21 Apr 2002, 17:25 (Ref:266585)

WOW Well done Paul and what a result for Jim too!!!!

What happened to the rest of the Vauxhalls though?

Radisichrox · 21 Apr 2002, 17:55 (Ref:266606)

Matt Neal crashed, and JT and Muller both apparently had problems on the last lap...

totaltoca · 21 Apr 2002, 18:20 (Ref:266622)

Thommo got a puncture and Muller got transmission problems bad luck for them but at least everyone else got a chance to get some points.

I was standing right near where that happened! All I heard was a screech and a crunch and the next thing I saw was Neal crawling on to the grass with his front end all smashed up - as regards to JT and YM, Thompson got a puncture and by the way the car was acting (and sounding) Muller had electronics or clutch problems.

Well done you deserve it a lot, great win hope there's more to come!!!!

Speedworx · 21 Apr 2002, 20:02 (Ref:266695)

Nice one O'Neill!

O'Schumacher · 21 Apr 2002, 20:15 (Ref:266710)

Here's what happened to Matt Neal. Running with Warren Hughes, he appeared to make contact with the MG, sending the EggSport driver sideways into the barriers at Knickerbrook. He spun, got it going again, and ground to a holt just metres later

Carrie · 21 Apr 2002, 20:56 (Ref:266741)

Did Neal actually make contact with the MG. I was on the infield of Knickerbrook and couldn't tell if he'd just lost it completely under braking. It was certainly a heavy hit on the barriers and glad to see him get out of the car okay.

As for the race winner - wow!!!!! Absolutely brilliant, I'm just so glad that I was trackside to witness that

The only drawback - having to rush back from Knickerbrook to see the podium

With Jim Edwards also taking second place in production right on the last lap from Simon, it was certainly a fantastic race!!!!

Okay, can someone calm me down now. At this rate I'm going to drive everyone mad in work tomorrow by talking of nothing other than touring cars and the feature race

Speedworx · 21 Apr 2002, 21:15 (Ref:266764)

It sounds a great race. I can't wait to see it on tv.

Maisie · 21 Apr 2002, 21:15 (Ref:266766)

BRILLIANT!!!

redshoes · 22 Apr 2002, 00:02 (Ref:266889)

Pics of Matt Neal's crash to folow ... (hopefully)

F1spanna · 22 Apr 2002, 09:15 (Ref:267085)

WELL DONE PAUL!!!! Fantastic result, fantastic race. Knew you could do it!

I don't think Matt made contact with the MG. I was on the inside @ K'brook too. Think he just left braking too late - thats what it looked like anyway!

Paul O'Neill · 22 Apr 2002, 16:05 (Ref:267486)

Thanks everyone. What a great day. Your support was amazing!

Thanks again!

Paul

rdjones · 22 Apr 2002, 16:15 (Ref:267489)

It's a message from the man himself, it sound from Radio Toca like the most amzing race.

MrTTraces · 22 Apr 2002, 18:30 (Ref:267625)

well done mate

andrew_marsden · 22 Apr 2002, 18:52 (Ref:267655)

Well done Paul a great race on all accounts!

Lorna · 22 Apr 2002, 19:46 (Ref:267749)

Big hugs Paul!

KayBee · 23 Apr 2002, 13:28 (Ref:268419)

Congratulations Paul! An extremely popular win with all the marshals who lined the track to applaud him on his lap of honour.

Did you enjoy the fire training session on Sunday morning?

WoodyTJ · 24 Apr 2002, 19:14 (Ref:269703)

OK so I cried ..... It was great being there and you certainly deserved the win Paul!

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope you've survived the celebrations hangover!

Paul O'Neill · 24 Apr 2002, 21:51 (Ref:269863)

Hi yall!

I didn't do very well with the old fire training. i will have to learn how to do that!

Lorna · 24 Apr 2002, 23:48 (Ref:269908)

I've been a fire marshall you know, ask John - I'll give a few tips... like, as KayBee
