    I had a good day and i started up after a wiggle of the nock sensor so if any body has a spare please pm me.
    The day went well and i took the mum (of a close friend of mine who passed away a few years ago)out for her first trip out on a race track and what a day to do it on.
    Not only was it the first track session of the year but also running brand new hankooks that were still shinny and made for the dry.
    It wasnt untill about 3 laps in that they started to grip so i could then put me foot down when 1 of the mini's (green 1) blew up then the blue xe mini on carbs did the same.
    The look on her face was priceless wile going side ways on a strait as we hit the oil.
    My second run was cut short when the clutch cable broke in pit area which i changed there and then after getting a spare from me car.
    It went well on the second run but hammered it down half way through and had to slow down as couldnt see out the window.
    See you all track side soon me.

    I forgot to say that when Will F drove off you took my car cover (which got shut in your door)near enough to the gate as i chased you down the road on foot.

    They're all mega resolution so should be good to view in full screen, all over 60mb+ in total, so video and sound quality should be ace... *fingers crossed*

    Some very entertaining track action yesterday.

    Olly your nova doesnt half shift, noticed Dar and Lee were taking it easy which i dont blame you about.
    Looked very slippy out there.

    Nice to catch up with Fly and Ad

    I came over to the stand but didnt see many i knew so had a quick chat with Lynz and Ad and went back to the MIG stand.
