jnr, it's your bedtime.

Ian Sowman · 19 Feb 2004, 14:00 (Ref:879377)

Nice site there - see PM JnrJnr.

Young Diz had that race easily won and would have finished a lap in front . But because its for a good cause we told him to come in as it would not be fair.........and he had the most fastest laps ...He needs a FF1600 for this year lol

sprocket · 19 Feb 2004, 17:28 (Ref:879522)

Gloves not ready lost us time (is'nt that exscuse 34b in the
ff1600 drivers exscuse manual??)
Make sure there on for the assembly race/practice when season starts,otherewise the commentators can use it!!!
NB:blue nose has his on already!!

sprocket · 19 Feb 2004, 17:43 (Ref:879533)

Note for DIZ:How many do you reckon wont be bothered filling
in a commentators sheet this year???
Always handy to use in a RED flag situation/Delayed start,or even when were giving the grid out!!!

Should I make a rule? NO INFO = NO MENTION only car Nog!!
and no exscuse "you no me "

diz · 19 Feb 2004, 17:54 (Ref:879540)

The majority of them, but as you are the font of all NW FF knowledge, they think you won't need a sheet.
But seriously, they should fill in any and all paperwork, religiously, comprehensively, promptly etc. They should also read all paperwork, but they won't. They are racing drivers and think they are above all that mundane stuff. They get right on my t!ts.

MikeM · 19 Feb 2004, 17:59 (Ref:879548)

Diz, we're not that bad - well not always! Well perhaps?
More seriously, what about a NWFF file to give commentators for each meeting. You might get better details if it's only done once and we could add comments/update if anything changes? Much like the profiles on the web site?

blue nose · 19 Feb 2004, 19:13 (Ref:879620)

GolddustMini · 19 Feb 2004, 19:35 (Ref:879637)

previous racing experience: champ winner in 2001, ability to hold a car together using nothing but gaffa tape... etc etc

Sprocket, I used to always fill in my sheet but got sick of you talking about my Uncle all the time!!!!!! He is a grey haired old man now!!! Sorry Rob but it is true!!

blue nose · 19 Feb 2004, 20:59 (Ref:879752)

If you are talking grey hair and sprocket, you must be thinking of another sprocket. Our one doesn't have grey hair [or any hair come to that] but does have a fine head of 'tanfastic' coloured skin.

blue nose · 19 Feb 2004, 21:25 (Ref:879800)

Well thats wot threw me Sprocket looks more like George Hamilton (should get a good mention now).

Will you be filling your commetary sheet in joined up
writing this year???
Please use pen this time --NOT CRAYON!!!

blue nose · 19 Feb 2004, 21:38 (Ref:879821)

I typed mine this year on another post so find and commit to memory lol

blue nose · 19 Feb 2004, 22:31 (Ref:879865)

Doh ! Its on this thread Sprocket.

blue nose · 26 Feb 2004, 20:35 (Ref:886660)

Sprocket do you want a new sheet for every race if so I will have to go to the betting office for more pens....it takes ages with wet matches.

JnrJnr · 26 Feb 2004, 21:04 (Ref:886695)

how about Diz scans in the commentator info sheet and e mails it to all competitors, or make it downladable from the brscc nw web page. This way, we can fill it in on our computers in word or somthing by drawing out text boxes where relevant to fill in, print out and give to sproket in clear readable, spell checked english?

Then the file it idea can be used as mentioned by someone in an earlier post?

Ian Sowman · 26 Feb 2004, 23:13 (Ref:886822)

Or why not just fill in an electronic version and email to the commentator?

Midlanders - please fill in your media/commentator info sheets which Mr Daly should have sent out!

diz · 1 Mar 2004, 09:58 (Ref:889860)

At every race, a driver will be selected to receive an axle set of Ferodo brake pads just for carrying a small Ferodo decal.

The recipients will be selected by Sprocket - from his commentary booth - for a performance worthy of being classed the 'Driver of the Race'. On the odd occasion the Sprocketmobile is out racing, I will make the selection.

Thanks to jminsh for arranging this through Demon Tweeks

jminsh · 1 Mar 2004, 10:48 (Ref:889906)

The offer is for Both Pre 87 and post 86 races at each meeting.

JnrJnr · 1 Mar 2004, 12:28 (Ref:890000)
