    Stick the weights on the face of the wheel and start a new trend

    Love that wheel.
    All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi
    Far from suicidal
    Still I get them tendencies
    Bringing back them memories
    That I really miss when I reminisce

    Not a bad day in all at Rockingham yesterday, no videos from me as I forgot my SD card.



    Iain and I got a garage cos it's crap enough if it rains, let alone all your stuff getting soaked. The rain held off apart from a few little sprinkles that didn't really affect the track which was good, especially after a wet Rockingham was described to be "as slippery as a bucket of eels covered in olive oil" during the briefing.

    We had a fairly quiet morning, learning the track, which despite a few awkward bumps flows really well, there were many many sideways moments, mostly on purpose!! Including one moment where both Iain and I were sideways through the same corner at the same time, absolute hilarity!!

    On a vehicle point, we seem to have survived intact, brakes were next level, defo worth the investment, few clonks from my top mount bushes that need addressing but other than that all good

    Highlights for me included seeing House spin out in the first session and cover his engine bay in oil due to the dipstick pushing out.

    Car was performing very well on the day, we annoyed a few Caterhams.

    Little photo Iain just sent me.

    I forgot to mention in the confusion of packing I forgot to load my rear slicks!! Luckily Iain brought extras, so I borrowed them and all was good!!!

    Bit slippy though, I reckon it was a ploy to slow me down!!!!
