Rich, that was me on the M4 tooting if you hadn't realised.

I was off to a family do in Kent. I bet you had more fun than me that day! Lol!

Ha ha, yeah I did realise it was you mate...you never see any other ATRs as clean as yours on the roads 8-)
I did give a wave but it was kind of after you had gone by.

Fun? - Indeed 8-) :D

Very, very long story but to sum up
Destroyed clutch in quali on the Teg and two ATRs destroyed motors !!

Us and VTEC Direct both did 400 mile round trips to our respective HQs and back to Snett with engines, hoists, clutches and all the extra bits and bobs needed.
Back at the circuit for 2am - PAW Teg back together and ready to test out by 5am
Both ATR motors ready to come out.
All hands on decks at 6am to get the ATRs done - Both ATRs and PAW Teg on the grid for race 1 at 11.30 8-)
Wet race one - driver error (from me) while leading under pressure from Mike's forged K22 EG Civic put me back to 3rd overall and 2nd in class
Race two and the tables were turned - it was my turn to apply the H22 pressure on Mike...awesome battle, got him on the last lap to take the outright and class win.

Supreme, epic motorsport weekend doesn't even come close to describing it all.


Total of 42 hours straight without sleep from first thing Sat morning to 1.30am today (Mon) and back in to work this morning!!
:shock: 8-)
