Where did Wilmot place in R3? Looked to be catching the last Infiniti from where I was

Plato can't complain about BMW's being quick off the line anymore as his car is what can only be described as 1million mph faster down the straights...

I know.

He asked me if I saw what happened, so did you see what caused the accident at all?

 

[paulmac2k9]

Could anyone tell he is Danish from his overalls?

No not really think there was about 3 separate incidents at that time in the same section Just he came off worse.

I was chatting to his brother at lunch, he seemed extremely nonchalant about the Junior drama and was more contented by the BTCC action.

BMR have created a FWD go kart to help karters in to the BTCC.

Haven't been through them all, but most of Jordan's car were too blurry... a couple that were alright (the last two were taken through the crash fencing, hence the odd contrasting)

also @hsv the only one I got...

 

[Bo]

He approved of the shots, good work guys.

So a reporter who spoke to Hawken over weekend said that the issue is with the team boss mainly, and nothing to do with the charity or Para's. Donnelly however isn't actually confirmed for the rest of the season.

However... since then a tweet has appeared from a para sent to one of Hawkens members. Due to language I have edited the tweet (and will refrain from posting though) threatening the team member with violence. Disgraceful and a shame on all the other paras doing a great job working in the BTCC.

 

[Bo]

Richard has been very keen to separate the paras from the ordeal on Facebook. He's still actively promoting all their charity work.

Exactly, it is a shame however that this bad publicity still reigns.

 

[Bo]

The Tweet (just seen it) has been forwarded to BTCC officials, apparently. You said threatening, but Jesus, that's twisted...

It's no wonder they can only afford to do half the season with the repair bills they're likely to have now

 

[Tom]

Mike Bushell has a funding page up to raise money towards the AmD Focus's rebuild. His target is to raise £10,000 and has almost achieved half of that - not bad going considering it was only set up at 08.00 this morning!

In return for the donations, he is offering various packaging including hot laps/the opportunity to drive his championship winning Clio Cup car, as well as potential laps in the BTCC Focus. I'm currently trying to arrange a rather special interview regarding the Clio hot laps...

 

[Furinkazen]

Damn.

Testing today

Big black lines being left by a drifting fiesta.....heard it was a RWD 2016 prototype BTCC car

Infiniti pull the plug with SOPR. They're paying for their actions.

Speedworks constructing new car for Belcher and Bushells back. Can't see past a BMW vs VW weekend battle, reckon the Honda's will have too much ballast to figure at least early on. Oh and i'll be there this weekend

 

[paulmac2k9]
