Hoping to get to this. Who else is going?

The Flagman · 16 Oct 2008, 20:52 (Ref:2314211)

Expect to be frantically waving flags round Maggots area. Lets hope its for overtaking not misdemeanours!

Looking forward to a competitive and safe day out. Look after yourselves everyone and have fun.

terence · 16 Oct 2008, 21:30 (Ref:2314229)

I might be there,not sure yet.

White flag man · 16 Oct 2008, 22:47 (Ref:2314276)

Will be waving the coloured cloths somewhere, hopefully Brooklands.

Marcus Mussa · 17 Oct 2008, 07:52 (Ref:2314465)

Saturday:
A mixture of broken cloud and sunny spells. Most places dry but a few showers are possible. Breezy. Maximum temperature 16 °C.

brands · 17 Oct 2008, 19:45 (Ref:2314949)

I'll be wandering about

btw....Has the HSCC website completely given up with timetables and entry lists ?

terence · 18 Oct 2008, 17:45 (Ref:2315366)

Not to bad a meeting,seemed a bit off on the timing side of the races though,good meeting up with the man with expensive door mirrors!and of course the yet to be seasoned Spa photographer,and everyone else who sometimes post's on here.Some pretty good racing,from the ones I actually got to see,I'll let John T fill you all in on those .

Mike Bell · 18 Oct 2008, 21:19 (Ref:2315480)

And good to put another face to a name, Terry!

A nice relaxed day- for us anyway!

Cheers

Likewise Mike,at least we got Simon out for his race. How did Suzanne get on?,I hope she found a little extra speed.Such a pleasure talking to her and James,Jack has plenty to be proud of.

Andrew Kitson · 19 Oct 2008, 11:12 (Ref:2315812)

Was Suzanne out in the Morgan? Lovely lady as are all Jack's family.

Hello Andrew, Suzanne has an FIA MGB which she ran on Avons in the HRS race- and is getting faster every outing in it. Noddy was in the hands of partner James P in the same race. No problems for either (apart from a Griffith proving too fast in a straight line for James!) and everyone happy!

Terry- Handy that Dyson make a gravel attachment!

Cheers

Andrew Kitson · 19 Oct 2008, 14:45 (Ref:2315941)

Hi Mike. Ah yes, saw her out in the MGB at Snett earlier this season when Jack and David both popped along to cheer her on.

Gary Critcher · 19 Oct 2008, 16:19 (Ref:2315983)

for the first time ever, I managed to get disqualified (from second to last place) in post-race scrutineering!!

terence · 19 Oct 2008, 19:21 (Ref:2316119)

And you had'nt done anything wrong?

**John Turner** · 20 Oct 2008, 07:19 (Ref:2316396)

Had a superb weekend and it all started here. Great to catch up with friends and sorry not to catch up with others; you know who you are; it was just that sort of day. Some great racing; I've started going through my pics and I've been reminded that 3 of the first 4 races had super dices for the lead and there was great racing all day. Then afterwards, the hospitality of a good friend and fellow Ten-Tenther talking racing into the evening and off to Donington for AMOC the following day for another great meeting. It doesn't get much better than that - well I guess if some one bought me a DBR1 and 917 to race, all expenses paid, that might just beat it!

Gary, sorry we didn't chat; what exactly were you disqualified for?

Pics later, but as is usual, I'm miles behind with my reviews; as another good Ten-Tenther friend said to me at Donny yesterday, he's looking forward to the AMOC pics about February. He thought he was joking!!

Discrepancies with the floor / undertray apparently.....

**Peter Mallett** · 20 Oct 2008, 07:50 (Ref:2316419)

Is it a 1994 Benneton?

You could have attributed the quote to me John - I wouldn't have minded......after some of the things I say to you.

Good to see you BTW

Well you would wonder !

delta · 23 Oct 2008, 17:13 (Ref:2319237)

Garry i think it worth getting disqualafied. " What a great picture" . Just out of interest were you given a warning earlier in the year. Seems very harsh to me.

Gary Critcher · 24 Oct 2008, 09:36 (Ref:2319739)

No Iain, no warning earlier in the year at all. This was my fifth meeting this year.

rogerwills · 24 Oct 2008, 10:40 (Ref:2319812)

Gary, did you know what the regulations were on this issue?

Tonto · 24 Oct 2008, 11:49 (Ref:2319860)

What is the issue? Looks like a tired ali floor from here.........
