Just like say a big thankyou to those with less than oil tight engines
![]() As for the fuel pump prices,sorry but didn't have the need to get any,it's all done for us. Still the best circuit in the world,despite the GT3RS being a little "loose" through Pouhon,Stavelot and Blanchimont ![]() [Didn't bother with the lap-top this time as the all singing and dancing android was supposed to take its place! Turns out the muppet at VM wasn't that clued up on one or two things,Yeah,it'll get all mail while your abroad,really excellent phone. Not!! |

It felt as though there was a residue of oil EVERYWHERE Mike,still no damage suffered by any car,so Friday turned out to be a really great time with plenty of laps being covered.

I have just received an email from Denis Welch Motorsport and they talk about a healey setting a quality lap of 2.56.921 for the Spa 6 Hour. I know I am out of the loop these days but is that correct? Seems indecently quick for a Healey no matter how famous a history...

My feet have just about touched the ground since getting back from Spa!
Great to meet so many 10/10thers and a pleasure to share a table in our hotel with The Honourable Peter and Lady Mallett ![]() The entry at Spa always produces the great and good, weird and wonderful, my favourite this year must be the Harm Lagaaij Shadow Mk 1, described by Mrs SpeCTator as a billiard table on wheels ![]() Great to see the battle of the 10/10thers fighting for the lead of the 6 hours, congrats to Simon and Leo, bad luck to Roger and Brendon. In 3 weeks we covered Goodwood, Spa and VSCC Snetterton, a more diverse series of classic races would be hard to find ![]() |

It was Mrs SpeCTator's idea to go to Snetterton
![]() So many drivers have said "wished my wife liked racing instead of bloody XYZ" Considering putting her on eBay ![]() |

- to constantly feed and water the team
- to know where I've 'lost' my race licence - to clean the screen, mirrors, visor, etc - to act as fire marshal when we refuel - to remind me about briefing times - to divert me from constantly fussing about the car - to look after the grandsons which means my son can be second driver and for a million-and-one other little things that make the weekends run smoothly, for which I am truly grateful, I'm a lucky happy bunny. |

My 'breadknife' has been invaluable to our racing exploits, far more reliable than any other help . . . or maybe she's just keeping a close eye on me . . .. hmm
not sure about the friendly face at 2am . . . if the muttering and swearing about making a racket and wine breath where anything to go by at Goodwood . . I blamed Arthur, it was his party. |
