B-bum tishhhh!
   
   Good one Clive.
   
   Let's not drift off topic though guys.

Cone? It looked more like a hillside to me!
   
   There'll be less sliding next time Nik. I've just bought Avon CR6 ZZ tyres for all four corners :)

It's only just being launched, but I've already registered an interest to take part in this event.
   
   I believe it is a 105db day.
   
   I recently took part in The Cobra Drivers Club event in Scotland (by taking part, I'm now a member), which included runs up 'The Rest And Be Thankful' hillclimb course – It was simply brilliant! I just can't wait to see what's in store at the Goodwood event :D

   I'm guessing when June realised Nik was tailing them, she probably told Barrie to put his foot down [:D]

Here's my latest video clip from this same event:
   
   Nik took charge of my Ram Cobra and went in hot pursuit of Barrie's AC Cobra Coupe, along a 40 miles stretch of road to Inveraray Castle.
   
   I'm afraid you'll have to excuse the shaky handheld camera shots... and the odd swear word – I'm such a bad passenger [:I]

   D'ya mean like I did in my video Nik?  [;)] [;)]

Indeed it was. I wouldn`t change a second of the whole weekend....
   Well, maybe a cleaner negotiation of the hairpin!!!
   Now, pass me that shovel.
   

   
   Sorry Nik, but I couldn't resist posting your mishap at the hairpin [}:)]

Hey Nik,
   
   It was worth every penny :)
   
   But, I think you should lend a hand in the landslide clean-up operation.

Aaron, I think you're spot on! I've never known the car get through so much fuel, so quickly ;)

   Trevor,
   I should have took heed. The weekend was long and the name "leadfoot Bagshaw" is very apt indeed. Remind me never to let Nik give chase, when a certain Mr. Bird goes tearing-off in his AC Coupe, down a long, fast, twisting road! My nerves are still shot to pieces [:I]
