Pop in for a beer or a coffee, always welcome.

Thanks will do. Do you have Tea.?

pieterbakker · 23 Mar 2009, 12:04 (Ref:2422656)

Tea yes, no scones I am afraid. You will find me near the green lorry and tents at the bottom of the paddock.

compte deGraves · 24 Mar 2009, 08:26 (Ref:2423375)

Iain, You are racing with Michael in my Elite in the race series organised by Pieter! As I suspected you will be in with your old friends in the GTC-TC series.

For those of you who do not know, Iain won his class in the overall GTC-TC championship in 2007.

He was the one driver sadly overlooked by Ron Dennis for a F1 seat.

pieterbakker · 24 Mar 2009, 08:50 (Ref:2423391)

It's a small world, isn't it? Iain nice to bump into you along different lines. Looking forward,

And Compte deGraves, thanks for introducing me.

delta · 24 Mar 2009, 09:22 (Ref:2423416)

Yes thank you Compte has neglected to tell you that i was just the co driver and that he himself won the class that year.I just managed to up set the Austrian Lotus Elan driver at Hockenheim.

compte deGraves · 27 Mar 2009, 07:55 (Ref:2425906)

I think he was Swiss -even more schadenfreude!

Eddy V · 27 Mar 2009, 17:23 (Ref:2426286)

Oh schadenfreude! Here is that word again.

Only German language can bring such a word.

Seen something odd on the RMU website: on the Friday Joe Public is not allowed in the inner paddock and general admission is 10€. Sat & sunday he is allowed into the paddock at a cost of 10€ and general admission is free. Bit confusing.

delta · 27 Mar 2009, 22:35 (Ref:2426492)

Hey Eddy get Joe to ring me i will send out a ticket for him.

Eddy V · 30 Mar 2009, 09:32 (Ref:2428816)

Duh!

Dear oh dear. Why do I bother?

terence · 30 Mar 2009, 17:08 (Ref:2429121)

There are SOME people who deserve help Eddy,and some who are beyond it!

delta · 30 Mar 2009, 19:29 (Ref:2429238)

Only trying to be freindley

Yes we know that Iain,but have you any idea how many Mr Publics there are out there?

Eddy V · 30 Mar 2009, 20:33 (Ref:2429288)

Ah, but maybe it is Iain who wants the paddock closed for the Friday, saves a hell of a lot on tea when all those Belgian yokels show up at the delta truck.

You can get mine ready by Saturday morning.

That's "croissants" for any non-Rowley speakers...

delta · 31 Mar 2009, 11:58 (Ref:2429726)

Did i spell patiserie correct.Al.?

Alan Morgan · 31 Mar 2009, 12:38 (Ref:2429751)

You were closer that time than your first attempt.

It's patisserie (or pâtisserie, if you're being clever)

I spoke to the Comte today and he says you are very rude and that in any event my Japanese is an awful lot better than your French. In addition the Comte has told me how to use the spell check so get your insults out of the way now because there won't be any opportunity in the future.

Eddy V · 1 Apr 2009, 20:29 (Ref:2430867)

Patisserie or pâtisserie. Never mind, as long as you bring at least 1 "boule de Bruxelles".
Yum, yum.

You even spelled Comte right! Not like his highness!
I have now entered the Modus (subject to surviving Donington) and the Brabham FJ - be a busy week-end.

Hi Marcus,

I planned to go on track with Ensign today for the first time, but is always raining, so I decided to skip the test on April 14 ... it will be my last chance to test before SPA!!!

I hope the car will work!!!

See you at SPA!

Ciao!

Carlo

Henrik Pedersen · 2 Apr 2009, 17:05 (Ref:2431601)

I thought the sun always shined in your region.
If the car dont work, there will always be a lot of friendly people to help.
I will not forget the help I got from all the HSCC people, and especially Tom Denyer and Delta (Ian).

I will be testing the Palliser in April 18, and my entry for Spa is send tomorrow.
I´m looking forward to return to my favorite track.

delta · 2 Apr 2009, 17:25 (Ref:2431620)

Henrik am i still bringing tyres for you?

compte deGraves · 3 Apr 2009, 07:21 (Ref:2432075)

I have just heard from Michael Ashley-Brown that the FISC Euro Tour is not taking place at Spa and that our 1960 S1 Lotus Elite is going to race with Throphee Lotus. Does anybody have any experience of that series?
