Great day out and very promising grid numbers. Something like 22 cars and 24 drivers, long may it continue!

Very well done to Jonathan Wright for his victory in race 1 and to James Breakell in race 2. I over heard Breakell senior mention to James that he'd buy him a Little Chef on the way home

Aha, the always delightful and oh so entertaining Breakell Senior .........

Typical product of the Big Bertha etc Racing Era; 2012, no longer races, but still as canny and brain-pin sharp as ever - bet he clocked from the passenger seat of the Trannie as they drove down that every Little Chef they went past was shut with a To Let sign on it.



Ps I hear a new dessert craze has hit and is sweeping Eastern Europe today> Vanilla Ice Cream sauced with a Double Scotch. Every bar in Gdansk has already sold out of both apparently.

Looks like you went well Will, getting the hang of that PR6 nicely.

Am I being dense? How does the laps column work?

Rhetorical or not? An argument for putting qualifying results somewhere lower down the listing. If ROC Internation Man of Mystery is confused then perhaps so.

Ask Miss Manypenny for a translation?

(Got your name down for one of those SR44444444444444............1s yet Nick? C'mon now, what a bargain, time to stop frigging around with those Wingless Wonders!)

Yes Bert, completely dense!

Hmmm, tempting. I know where to get a spare chassis from if I don't fancy buying it all at once & to remind me of those frig-about-with-wingless-wonders.

Be nice to see a grid of 4's (or 1's as they seem to be now) racing again. How's this for a prediction: SR1 racer turns out to be just that bit faster than PR6 and SR3RS. Becomes the car to have in Radical race series. Or is my crystal ball a bit blurry

Are you clocking the weight?

Got to be an erratum.

Hasn't it?

Something like that.

Sorry Trev not too sure which weight you're referring to?

SR1 weight? 480kg...

OK cheers, wasn't sure if that's what he meant

Bit more than a clubbie/prosport, same as stated for PR6? Doesn't sound too crazy?

Yep, that's what I meant.

A current production basic 6 might (or might not) scale @ circa 480Kg 'wet, with a teensy bit of fuel, but a specced one with the mandatory 'minimum 3 litres left post race' is more likely 500Kg, there or thereabouts.

A current production basic 4 would be more like 520Kg, there or thereabouts, so if it's not an erratum, the 1 is obviously considerably more than a 're-naming/re-numbering' of a 4.
