Default Round 5

Loved the track guys. First impressions was that it was an obsticle course rather than a track, but it flowed really well [for us silly mutha-truckers at least ] and I really enjoyed the 90deg tabletop in the middle, and hoops.

And it was really nice of Mr Skelding showing up and putting the rest of us truckers to shame with some driving talent...

For some scary reason, I managed to get some decent photos with my camera for once (decent light coming in for Sports mode, for all the techy geeks), so I'm just uploading them on my Facebook before sticking them on Photobucket, and then here. If anyone wants to add me to see them before they go here, its http://www.facebook.com/garry.hobson, and feel free to tag yourself if you see yourself!

Wave your car under my nose before your qualifier and I'll spend the heat just snapping it.

Glad you enjoyed the track Gary, I thought it was our best one yet. That's got to be the best use for hula-hoops and Reebok steps ever invented!

Great picks, glad you managed to get a couple of my trusty XXX-CR. Only one on the track, but ended up in its rightful finishing position!

Hey Vark, here's one of your Fandango; did you leave your shocks on your pit table for this race?

Oh no, I remember now, that was Lloyd in practice!

Had a really good days racing and well worth the journey from Norwich! Thought the track layout was really good and the features made racing indoors a pleasure without it being an obstacle course

Some good photos to although how come no matter where I race I always manage to get one taken of my car when it's upside down

All being well I'll be back for round 6.
