Barry,I fully agree with you, the posting of the Britcar report was absolutely nothing to do with me, and with hindsight, maybe I should have made a fuss that it exploited my intellectual property. I had posted earlier information that the report was available on the dsc and eerc sites.
Regarding the length of this thread, I believe it was the moderator's idea to merge all of the various/similar threads a month or two ago. Good Luck to Fiona - a class or overall win in each race would compound the record further ! |

Steve, apologies for trying to spread the gospel about BritCar. My mistake. And I did give you IP credit along with dsc, where in fact it was lifted from.....dsc don't mind info being lifted as long as it is not for commercial gain and you give them credit for it.
Because dsc is subscription based I think you will find that less people will look at the report on dsc. In addition many people cannot be bothered to follow a link.... keep up the excellent work del |

I think a full race report is too big to go up here - and as a result I'm pulling it - I don't mind a list of results a but a full report - too much

They keep saying that they are coming out to play.....be good if they do.
It is very quiet. Quiet enough to be cranking out 250 miles a week on my bike. It won't harm us to improve the power to weight ratio by reducung the drivers' weights by 40lbs each..... |

All I know is Peter's car should be out on track next week. I saw Andy at the Kumho Snetterton round last month, he wasn't that optimistic about his car, but he still planned to have it out for the 24th July.

Martin - I was at Brands for a test at the end of May - who was the lady who shunted your Marcos at Surtees??!! (Kind of off-topic here but thought I`d get in while you were on-line!!)

If you go to the EERC website, and scroll down a little bit, you will find a new initiative for Britcar entrants.

Thanks, Andy. Glad you think it's entertaining. Just like the series itself, it's uncontroversial, civilised, and friendly. A fine bunch of people racing, watching, and posting.

[B]Know what you mean Del.........them honda 90's sometimes need kick starting two or three times....phew........ lol You may flippin' laugh Martin......last thursday evening I raced up near Abergavenny and we averaged 27 mph for almost 2 hours. Not quite Honda 90 speed but not shabby. My heart rate was over 160 for the 2 hours, max of 184... We are due to race at Pembrey this Thursday evening, I hope I go better than the M3 did in the second race..... Our new (to us !!), actually it is new, Lifeforce car is virtually finished. It has been on the rolling road and is due back on it next week. Then a shake down at Llandow, followed by some proper testing. del |

Give us some details about the open day, Martin.
Where, what time, what will be going on ? I'm supposed to be on DIY duty on Sunday, after working at Combe on Saturday, but I may try to slip away for a few hours on Sunday. |

I'll leave details to warren who is going to read this thread later. But i know its free champagne and caviar to all that turn up, gift for children, chance to win co-drive with mp...................no sorry woke up lol
topcats open up there hq for customers, prospective customers and anyone interested in cars, big display of race cars, very nice road cars (tvrs, ferraris etc), also chance to talk with all involved with topcats, warren, charlotte, brian, keith, all there and much easier to chat without the pressures of race day. It's a good day out, hopefuly weather will be glorious as it is today. Hope warren reads this to give address, i not got it on file, just know its about 3 miles west of aylesbury, westcott business park. signposted from road. maybe see you there mp sorry 12pm onwards Last edited by martinparsons; 15 Jun 2004 at 16:12. |

"....the pressures of race day" !!!!!!!
You'd know all about that, wouldn't you, Martin ? By the way, what time is your autograph session ? I want to be at the head of the queue, in front of the other 2 people. |
