My comedy blitz is almost ready, just need to get some tyres tomorrow and I'm set. I'll make sure to avoid the marshals this time.

Without asking the obvious but what are the key skills of Team Hopeless?

Owning a Bmax is not essential, but limits you to the lower tiers. Currently we have a 3 tier system operating:

First team - Johnny and Myself (entry requirements: 2 Bmax's, 1 must be a Factory Team)

Second team - James and Mark (Just one Bmax - non-FT version)

Junior team - Whiskers (open to younger drivers who could be a full team Hopeless member when older, and when they get a Bmax....)

Also note that ownership of a Lazer automatically disqualifies you from Team Hopeless for life. We may be crap, but we've got some dignity left!

I'm going to have to much grip on Sunday due to my new secret weapon. Some very old and rather hard compound Schumacher micro spikes!! So look out for the 12 year old schumacher cat'98 going round corners like a house fly!

I was planning to show my face tomorrow if only to make si look like the fool he is unfortunately work has just phoned and begged me to work £120 for 5 hours work so I'm working might turn up around 1ish just for the crack

Yeah, great day at the races again. Nice track once again. At times the racing looked a bit messy, but fun.

Also, I managed to capture some of the racing on my camcorder so hopefully better quality than last time. Unfortunately with there only being 3 heats I was only able to record Heat 3 (due to racing and marshalling). I will post onto here during the week.

The results are on our website:-
http://www.bmrcc.talktalk.net/Results/7Nov/heats.htm

Nobody noticed the computer was set to ignore the first lap in the finals. Hence the 40 second lap times for the first lap. Nevertheless I had a good day.

Thanks to those who stayed to pack away. What would we do without you.

If anyone knows how I can edit movies from a Sony dvd camcorder please let me know. All the movies on the dvd are saved in one large *.mov file which is over 1GB. I can view them on the pc ok, which shows a title menu page for all the individual movies but I only want to upload the racing ones.
