  1. Now you're talking Andy 👌. I'd better start polishing my boots....
  2. Better add Giant and Riggerman on the booking list.. Ha! I knew this was going to happen, I have a work commitment and can't go.... aaaargh!
  3. Unfortunately there's plenty of turkey left down here. I think it's because the tractor drivers at BV aren't a patch on the ones they had at Coventry so I can't bring myself to go 😂. I will however see you at Birmingham, your preferred surface 😉.
  4. Trackstar - is the F1 consi semi being run on WF night again? For me, that decision alone has a big impact on the meeting format and whether or not the saloons should be on: if youre running the consi semi youve got a lot of non-qualified WF drivers that you automatically have to give a booking to before then considering allocation of bookings to others that want to race from the UK & overseas. Thanks. Edit: Carl, where are my apostrophes going? :-)
  5. Ipswich is a great facility Craig but apart from the small grandstand on the home straight, the rest of the venue is very exposed to the elements - all of the terracing and the back straight grandstands do not have cover. http://photos.stoxnet.com/displayimage.php?pid=74444
  6. Ha! More than just a few lumps of coal I'm afraid mate lol, it's expensive down this way! There is some room for your David Brown on the driveway though.... Great booking list at 52 cars, just need the King to make his 2017 season debut to bring it up to 53 cars of course!!
  7. Thanks for the results team - and for the gallery pics Roy.
  8. Should it be 197 sixth in the final. from memory, I think it was 195 Dean Whitwell Thanks for the results as always team. Counter - it was 197 not Dean; 84 and 445 got passed him with a few laps left to run on what was a fairly quiet night for Ryan.
  9. I try my best with every meeting! They're much appreciated Carl and a very welcome addition when you started doing them a couple of years ago each Monday morning :-) Thanks!
  10. Absolutely Trev. Many comments recently about some relatively low car turnouts (though admittedly mainly on shale) but us fans can definitely add some hype to this meeting and embrace the fact there's going to be over 60 F1's racing this weekend. With many fans having last weekend off with no Coventry and saving some money, what better reason do we need to get back racing than 60 cars under lights at Skeggy. Should be a belter!
  11. Ha! See you at Lynn Andy. Drinks are on you.... .
  12. Thanks Gerry. Going slightly off topic but just to add, many people are unaware that this week speeding fines have increased massively as they are now outrageously based on your weekly income! Ouch! Link below.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-39686894
  13. Thanks Ozzy, much appreciated. Huge thanks from me to Jane and Nic for their efforts every weekend - despite usually being at the meetings I often check the results thread whilst on a pit walk to see the top ten after each race. Superstars with flashing lights, both of you.
  14. Indeed John. With a very early start and lots of cars booked in to support the event, an allcomers race of some sort would have seen a big grid of cars and is arguably more in keeping with a 'gala' to bring the season to a close at the end of the night. I'd feel a bit short changed as a driver with the distinct possibility of only gridding for two races. If the meeting runs smoothly and there's time, hopefully they'll decide to throw on an extra race at the end for those who want to get back out on track for a last thrash around - even if it is directly after the programmed F1 Final.
