Andy, are you racing this Friday?

If so, do you think you could try and incorporate that "hump back bridge" thingy into your design? It was a brilliant idea

Or failing that, I second Axeman's request to run the same track again this week

I am there, and not sure wether to run the same track again or not?!?!?!

Don't want to spoil a good thing, but then it was ace!!!

Either way I can def put the rolling lumpy thing in again though...assuming I get there early enough to help build the track...not sure who's getting there first this week yet.

Dave, I'll take some activator and acetone too buddy

That roller thing was such a clever idea, ive been raving to Bill about what he missed

Dont have to have the roller where it was, we could move it about if you want to change the track, but I found that roller such a key part of last weeks track!! Needs to be just before a corner though so people dont just laugh off it and miss the whole point of what it does

The jump in front of the rostrum was good too. More of a "long jump" than a "high jump".

I dont think we've ever had numerous requests to run a track the week after have we? You oughta be proud Andy!!

I did go upto Andy last week with a track design but thankfully he went with his idea

I have a hospital appointment Thursday which means I have to work Friday (I normally have Friday's off) so I might not be able to make it at a track building time this week.

I helped you with your track idea afew weeks ago though Pete and that went down well

The first rule of car club is...there is always* car club...
The second rule of car club is...there is always* car club...
The third rule is...you get the picture

I think what Andy's trying to say is that if it's a Friday then there will be car club!

And Cris, it wasn't a bad track was it? just not as good as last weeks!

Our dad had a bonfire in the field up there a couple of years back and the fire brigade turned up after someone had phoned to say grayhill was on fire!
