Hi Schanche

It was definately a lot tighter. You could almost straight line back onto the loose in January!

I actiually preffered it a bit straighter with a faster entry back on the loose. It made for some close battles coming off of Chessons.

I guess this has got them the 2 seconds difference now though. Has anyone seen any lap times to see what the difference was?

That's what I hate about Jon - I look at my pictures and think "some of these are quite good" then look at Jons photos and realise mine are in fact a pile of old cack

Top shots as ever Jon

I wouldn't say that about yours Bert. Quite enjoy looking at your shots and compared to some I see elsewhere they're pretty good

Could be very much mistaken, but isn't that the gravel bit at Paddock and not Chessons?

School boy error by bb... good spot tho eddy

Eddy V · 11 Feb 2009, 21:02 (Ref:2395678)

Well, all day long I had a good view of the other gravel bit as I was on post 4. Couldn't remember the snow bit, so that made me wonder.
And the fact that I did not see Mr. Jon anywere near that corner.

jonbryant · 11 Feb 2009, 21:05 (Ref:2395681)

Aww sorry Eddy. But you know what happens when i turn up on your post... *nothing*. So I decided to loiter in the usual areas!

Eddy V · 11 Feb 2009, 21:07 (Ref:2395682)

Okay, forgiven.

Not that we had very much anyway, mumble, mumble.

BOY BLUNDER · 11 Feb 2009, 21:53 (Ref:2395711)

Yea ok point taken,but i still like it the way he drives it.

BB....

jonbryant · 11 Feb 2009, 21:56 (Ref:2395712)

No quite quiet all round really. But some good racing particularly with Alan Tapscott and Joss Sterkens. Really good battle that which the joker lap spoilt...

Thats the one! Fantastic shot, as has been said you captured everything there: the four wheel drift, the one handed steering...

...I want this for my desktop wallpaper now!

That's what I thought as well - good close racing. But if you read the report in MN it was "ill tempered" - didn't look that way to me

Martin got a little side paragraph mention in MN too

**BertMk2** · 28 Mar 2009, 22:15 (Ref:2427391)

So - the Paul Coney that ran in the winter series, is this the same driver/car?

Rod Birley · 28 Mar 2009, 22:25 (Ref:2427396)

Certainly the same driver. Used to be sponsored by WJ King (Vauxhall dealer).

Thundersports · 29 Mar 2009, 19:46 (Ref:2428359)

So it is the same Paul Coney who was around in the 80s.
