Cooked, absolutley cooked.  Face was sore, arms were sore, neck was sore.  Brilliant day though and not for the obvious selfish reasons.

Marshalling has actually become something that is now good to do. The 2WD is amazing.  Watching BenC, Zipper and Juddy in seperate races all drive their socks off for 80% of the heat and then toss it away. And then,  Al to drive as well as he did and end up in the B final -  Examples showing the pressure and skill in that class is immense.

Kam kept me amused with his "Marshall"'s.  I think there may have been times he was warning them, just in case he crashed Laughing  

Bad luck of the day must be Jim (again).  Another B44 that doesn't want to play.

DanF with his first taste of LiPo, (after using 2000mah NiMhs)  forcefully removed the front off his XXX4 and then cooked a brand new motor in the XXXT. Hope you get it sorted.  The trucks should be ready to go in a couple of weeks and hopefully see you then.

So far the weather has been fantastic this season, long may it continue. Looking forward to the SEN. See ya'll there Very Happy

The 2wd was immense yesterday, the strength in depth was as good as it's ever been.  Proper heart pounding stuff Very Happy

Luck!!! I don't rely on luck.  I get right in there and start tinkering whilst their back is turned.  A lot of skill involved in making sure those parts don't start falling off until halfway through a race.  Wink

So thats why I had such a smashing good time yesterday is it? one wishbone, one top deck, one slipper set-up.... Laughing

Was good to be back racing after a bit of a tough time lately, amazing how much having your insides played about with slows you down, I'm even slower at Forza 2 on the Xbox, then I was last week, before the op Laughing

Those of you with sun burnt necks, grow some hair! Mwwhahahahahaha!
