Diz can you ban this man from the forum....!

darcym · 18 Dec 2003, 15:59 (Ref:815323)

Chris,

With any luck my team should be able to make it up for at least one NW round. But as they all have real jobs and other commitments asking them to do more and more weekends may be a problem, so I am just looking at options. If Team ULAN feel like stepping in to the run siwft for a race if my regular guys can't make it great !. It maywell be easy for me to hire a car up your neck of the woods and just do that if I have spare cash. Don't suppose there is an RF04 going spare

or a yellow RF90.

Anyway, send me the numbers so I can be ready for the rounds I have spare cash for.

Steve,
Yes, I got the email. I suggest you check out the profile of brsccnw. Looks like you need to do another one now!!!!!!

Diz,
serious question.
Do you run any double headers? I would be interested to come up for a double and make a weekend of it, that way the first race can be the test

thanks

Matt

Matt, Didn't have a DH at Oulton last year, but did the year before, in fact it was a triple header for Post86, as they lost a race earlier in the season. Anglesey tends to be DH.
Should know the calendar by the Autosport Show

No championship in any type of car is easy. NW FF1600 is no different. If you are about to start racing, you will be on a major learning curve. It is very much learn to walk before you run.

blue nose · 21 Dec 2003, 23:15 (Ref:817728)

I seem to have put my foot in my mouth again.
I have won races in zetec, but would now like to race kents.

blue nose · 21 Dec 2003, 23:18 (Ref:817730)

What i should have said is it very competative (TO many beers)

mattray · 23 Dec 2003, 11:15 (Ref:818841)

What championship have you won races in, in Zetecs, Blue Nose?

diz · 23 Dec 2003, 11:27 (Ref:818848)

Matt,
He is Alan Pike. He won Class A in NW FF1600 a couple of years ago in a Swift92. As far as I know, his Zetec experience is confined to running a one off hire drive in Monoposto at an Anglesey meeting which NW FF were at. I think he might have won it.
Be advised, he likes to wind people up - as you might have already gathered. Now he has discovered TT, we will probably all suffer. Deep down he is a nice lad though.

mattray · 23 Dec 2003, 11:41 (Ref:818866)

ahh I see Diz many thanks,
wasn't NW1600 easy a couple of years ago? I hear its a bit harder nowadays!

blue nose · 23 Dec 2003, 12:35 (Ref:818906)

Hi Matt I have never raced a Zetec. But they do make good doner cars for Kents

mattray · 23 Dec 2003, 12:52 (Ref:818918)

Looks like they make better Kent cars then they do Zetecs!

Is that a Porky Pikey?
I thought you once pedalled a Black Dog Zetec at Anglesey - only just managing to see off an 89 Reynard

Wasn't it the weekend that you broke just about everything you sat in?

blue nose · 23 Dec 2003, 13:05 (Ref:818933)

I dont like to tell any one Ive driven a Zetec?
seem to remember winning four races that day in different bits of kit

Redracer77 · 23 Dec 2003, 13:52 (Ref:818991)

Alan I will put £50 on you winning the NWFF champs next year.....as you will be one of only 3 drivers in the new post 96 class which is new for next year.

Well why did you tell people you have in other threads?
Slight correction to "seem to remember winning four races that day in different bits of kit " should read
"seem to remember winning four races that weekend in cars with different bits falling off" and the odd

or ten.

blue nose · 23 Dec 2003, 15:38 (Ref:819077)

That was a different time in fact twelve months had gone by, It must be all that cake you eat HaHaHA sorry ho ho ho.

goforit500 · 23 Dec 2003, 16:02 (Ref:819088)

I may not be running my Cossie next season & might have a crack at a couple of single seater races...

Are there any good arrive'n'drive type teams in the NWFF1600 series ??

Redracar57 · 23 Dec 2003, 16:09 (Ref:819094)

MikeM · 23 Dec 2003, 16:16 (Ref:819097)

Yes, Goforit - there are people who can do this for you and you would be very welcome. There's a list on www.brsccnw.com I think it's in Ian Smiths section. Any problems - pm me and I will do what I can to help you.

darcym · 23 Dec 2003, 16:18 (Ref:819100)

who the hell is this this bluenose guy.

Rude to people he's never met, tell varying degrees of information on various outings he's made, and then forgets what he's said in another thread and changes it in the next, then makes a ballsy statment that he will win the championship. (I quite like that)

If he doesn't win, I have book marked his threads to re-post and make large ammount of fun at towards the end of the season.

MikeM · 23 Dec 2003, 16:27 (Ref:819109)

Checked quickly - it is in Ian Smiths section under getting started in FF.

Redracer77 · 23 Dec 2003, 16:27 (Ref:819110)

lol darcym - when you come up to Oulton next season you will be able to beat him!!!
