Think you'll find he has two weak spots - (his memory and appetite) ha ha ;D

Dont seem to have a comeback for that ha ha ha ha ha

But whats that i hear 'i was driving in my socks', so a pillow seemed fitting as well ;D

Dad's back from Italy today - guess we will soon see whether i have done any damage to the spitfire by trying to fix it........

Its certainly wont start at the moment............

Massive thanks goes to Mark Bland who came to the saviour at 11.30pm Saturday evening, when the fated lack of knowledge on cars came too the boil.

However he did get his own back by bring me a pillow along so i could drive his Spitfire, i thought i would get that out there before MR COOPER rips me too pieces.

Mark's car is set up very nicely and has an nice long first gear so pretty dam handy for autosolos.

With all concerned the spitfires held there own very well, nice to see Matt Barkers recently acquired spitfire out. Which value for money looks like an extremely nice find.

The day didnt go without its events, with Mark having too change tyres for the journey home being one of them (Sorry Mark)

Finshing order for the triumph went like this:

1.Matt Helm
2.James Cooper
3.Mark Bland
4.Matt Barker
5.Dale Barker

Good times, look out for the Abingdon Autosolo with regs up on the Dolphin motorclub website. There will be a sprint with over 100 cars entered at the same venue and camping is permitted with the following day a stage rally will be present at the venue.

And also dont forget that the regs are out for the Club Triumph Annual Autosolo on the 15th July

Quote from the Kind people at Wickford Motor Club

'Come on the summers coming and I know someone who has this grass field on which we ran 2 auto tests on last summer and had a great time so he said why not come back next year and keep the grass cut for me...
  
So what a chance not to be missed I thought, how about a grass auto test championship over 4 rounds in June 17th / July 29th / August 26th / September 30th providing a service to the local community and having some fun along the way J
  
Take a look at the regs, take your pick do 1,2,3 or all 4 events, entry to championship is free providing you enter at least one event and pay the entry fee... only £15 for adults and £5 for juniors per event. Awards per event and some end of year awards as well. We have already booked good weather, shops and pub nearby, toilets on site and we are even thinking of holding a barbi if the weather is really good and someone offers to cook ?
  
I can see you are tempted, so one warning I'm limiting each event to just 30 entries so first come first served is the motto. Remember juniors must be driving a standard 1400 cc production car and be accompanied by an experienced driver. Entry list for first and all other events opens on publication of these ASR's, which is now, so why wait get your entries in now ?
  
ASR's will also be posted on WAC website

CAN IT REALLY BE THAT CHEAP - THE ANSWER IS YES, YES IT CAN :)

State the obvious, but an awesome event!

Everyone knows how many events i do and be perfectly honest the tests gave a bit of everything and were long enough to push levels of concentration.

Massive well done to everyone involved competing and organising. CT are a great bunch of people and i'm proud to enter under the banner at other events.

Finally a massive thankyou to my old man!! He is without a doubt a legend, i havent a clue about cars but he still manages to understand what i waffle on about. I'm sure he must spend more time working on my abuse than on his own, so thats big guy....

Sunday weather  

Sunny

26°C 79°F  

Get the BBQ out Tim      

He does quite a few autosolo events, see him alot at Oxford MC events

He's not too bad - pale yellow car.

Good technique always smooth

Without a doubt its going to be a much tighter affair this year....

Can name but a few....

But definately the guy in the talisman, james cooper, clive senior, the wellings been a great year to see more and more triumphs out and about competing

This is the best event by far and you can tell by the amount of entrants...

WELL DONE CT AND THE COMPS COMMITTEE

The countdown for the MAIN EVENT is now on

Without a doubt the best event as far as autosolos are concerned.....

Count me in for a hot dog or too and hopefully this sunny weather sticks around
