  1. It's a tricky one' date=' that. There's a blind crest at the braking point and on the day you stuffed it, it was wet before the crest and a layer of crud after it. I [b']very nearly understeered off into the armco there too. You'd have stuffed it into me if I was unlucky. Fortunately, the ABS scrubbed off enough speed to get enough bite to turn in. I (almost) made a late apex, shall we say! Cheers, Andy
  2. Didn't I pass a blue S4 on my penultimate lap? :-p Cheers, Andy
  3. That was brilliant. Glad you got the Karussel on video! You can't beat though!Cheers, Andy
  4. I think so. Yours only has 600mah batteries in. No wonder they kept going flat ;-) No wonder. I just put what came with them in there. Perhaps I'll upgrade for the next trip... Cheers, Andy
  5. The track was closed in the morning, so I didn't get it. When I got there in the afternoon, someone had already rented it. The car I fancied most out of what was left was a Golf GTI with a DSG 'box. It was bloody brilliant! Cheers, Andy
  6. No problem. Are you returning to the 'Ring to give it back? Cheers' date=' Andy [/quote'] I can pick it up at the GTi spring fest and bring it down to the Bristol Volks fest, if you'll be there Andy. I'm sure I will be. We can swap our exchanged radios back, if you want, too! Cheers, Andy
  7. My photos and those I stole off others are uploading now. Ignore all the banners and purchasing crap, it's just easier for me to upload with my usual scripts. Cheers, Andy
  8. No problem. Are you returning to the 'Ring to give it back? Cheers, Andy
  9. Busted again! Am I that transparent? Cheers, Andy
  10. Alright, I admit it. I have two speeds; flat out and out of fuel! Cheers, Andy
  11. I'm not so sure. I'd have been taking it easier (for fear of nagging) and the queue for passenger rides would be for the rear seats, I expect! Cheers, Andy
  12. http://www.fotograff.de/Touris20080323_Auto/DSC_4610.html Great photo from Sunday. I'll be uploading mine during the rest of the week. I'm currently getting the silent treatment for renting the Golf GTi. Worth it though! Cheers, Andy
  13. Bugger. Should've booked the hotel last night instead of going to bed. Fully booked now. Looks like I'm driving down in the morning unless someone near Dover has a sofa I can borrow! Cheers, Andy
  14. I'm ready to go! I've just tested RaceChrono (0-62 in 8.6 seconds) and I'm all packed. Just need to book the hotel for Dover tonight and head off. See you in the morning! Cheers, Andy
  15. I'll have my laptop with me and an inverter to power it in the car. I've not tested the inverter with the lappy yet, but I'm sure it'll be OK. Besides, I have a hotel room with a power socket and a 4 hour battery life... Cheers, Andy
  16. Bad weekend for me, lads. I've got the Bristol Motor Club magazine to finish over that weekend. Will have to dip out, I think. This is subject to change next week :-p Cheers, Andy
  17. I'll bring the XBox and Forza dfor comparison then. I find Forza great for learning where the track goes. Cheers, Andy
  18. I'm a little worried about the number of people who don't know where we're going and the number of dropouts. I get the feeling Nigel and I will be the only people there! Cheers' date=' Andy [/quote'] Chill out Mr laurence I know where we are going and I am a bit disopointed about the weather, you cant blame me for that. But after looking on Ben lovejoys web site there is now no way I will be dropping out so now ya stuck with me. So Andy can I borrow a PMR of ya please mate Yup, I'll have three PMRs. One for me and two spare (now allocated). Cheers, Andy
  19. There's more particulates in diesel. It's supposed to be bad for you compared to petrol emissions. I'll probably stay out for several laps at a time if I can, so one passenger lap means you'll be in for a while or hopping out on the track! Cheers, Andy
  20. I'm a little worried about the number of people who don't know where we're going and the number of dropouts. I get the feeling Nigel and I will be the only people there! Cheers' date=' Andy [/quote'] Does that mean there'll be plenty of opportunity for co-piloting the TT? I'm without passenger for this trip, so you're welcome to hop in whenever you like. Bring a helmet though. Cheers, Andy
  21. I'm diesel powered so I can get there on a single tank (provided we stick to two figure speeds). It's also cheaper for diesel than unleaded. :-p Cheers, Andy
  22. I'm a little worried about the number of people who don't know where we're going and the number of dropouts. I get the feeling Nigel and I will be the only people there! Cheers, Andy
  23. forecast for the 'Dam is just as bad' date=' it's the same distance, give or take, from Bolougne and I've got a nice hotel booked in Germany, so no matter what it's Nurburg for me. Even if I spend all weekend in the hotel's 'spa'. [/quote'] Snap! I was only at Schipol airport a few hours ago. It's too soon to go back. Besides, it's a year since my last 'Ring fix! Cheers, Andy
  24. Of course. I'll have one with your name on it. Metaphorically speaking, of course! Cheers, Andy
