Shouldn't have explained Jon. I had credited you with 500 bewilderment points

As long as there is racing, with any cars, I will be happy!

that means mr victor bryant is in the lead before the race has even started .

johnw · 12 Nov 2009, 21:24 (Ref:2581044)

Not even close Woody. We have some drivers starting on 5000 points - ask Eric

Elio and bh come and have a Werthers or Horlicks with us. Bring flippers, it's not looking good.

Rod Birley · 12 Nov 2009, 22:18 (Ref:2581073)

Excellent Mr. Willcocks, should be the usual fun and games then. Surprised no one has complained that you keep changing the rules each year, or is my memory fading (hint, I could be eligible soon).

johnw · 13 Nov 2009, 00:28 (Ref:2581131)

Most gracious of you, young Rodney. Thank you.

I'm unaware of any rule changes, unless I've introduced them by error?

Whatever, there are so many other complaints, that any of that nature would pale into insignificance.
Feel free to enter whenever you wish. This year, our eldest competitor is 75 and the youngest 20. It is an eclectic field and most gratifying.

Next year I'll open the entries on here concurrently with P8R, as I fear I've had to disappoint too many folks.

andypipe · 13 Nov 2009, 08:33 (Ref:2581242)

So what is the criteria to enter. Thinking of entering next year

Rod Birley · 13 Nov 2009, 08:36 (Ref:2581243)

General grumpiness, a bit arguementative, have a saloon car, yep you should be OK.

andypipe · 13 Nov 2009, 08:49 (Ref:2581250)

Where do i sign up. How come you havent entered Rod. You excel in all the above

Rod Birley · 13 Nov 2009, 09:02 (Ref:2581255)

You will have to lend me your car as I think 4WD is not allowed although JW can confirm this.

andypipe · 13 Nov 2009, 09:08 (Ref:2581256)

Its still in bits after last time you drove it

johnw · 13 Nov 2009, 10:12 (Ref:2581281)

Saloons primarily, though others considered. We have an MG Midget with us this year.
No to 4wd.
List Tyres.
Willingness to accept that these races are a bit of end of season fun where, ideally, folks who rarely get the opportunity to finish on the podium, do so.
Race cleanly and take the car home in the state that it arrived.
Enjoy a good moan, particularly about the handicapper.

See you there then Andy?

andypipe · 13 Nov 2009, 10:18 (Ref:2581284)

See you in morning for next years entry

Do keep up Eric, they are bonus points not penalties.
I don't know you go to all the trouble of writing clear, concise regulations and people just don't bother to read them, young people today, drinking , no accountability for their actions and don't get me started on that Gordon Brown who wouldn't know a good idea if it hit him in the eye..........

There are laws against that sort of behaviour, but it will be worth a few more points. I'll tell Nurse Gladys to bring her magnifying glass.

Barman1963 · 13 Nov 2009, 17:18 (Ref:2581482)

Sorry to interupt, but would anyone know if car 14 XJ6 Terry Nicholls is the same Terry Nicholls that used to race the GAA Capri ?

johnw · 13 Nov 2009, 17:35 (Ref:2581486)

Sorry can't help as I've only met him by email. Will ask him tomorrow though

Rod Birley · 13 Nov 2009, 18:07 (Ref:2581501)

If he is from somewhere on the south coast (Sussex) then I suspect it will be the same person.

Not Brighton I hope

Eric Falce · 13 Nov 2009, 18:28 (Ref:2581512)

Oh dear, I dont believe but I may be in trouble with someone else now.

I don't like doughnuts. Hate the hole in them, means less food.
You already get some of those points Eric, just because Tim is family.

Warning to all: no crashing on my post please, I can't have that. Too old and senile to write a report.
And stay of Mr. Palmer's grass.

johnw · 13 Nov 2009, 20:20 (Ref:2581563)

Terry Nicholls is from Worthing.

Look forward to seeing you Eddy. Grab a post on high ground if you can.

Rod Birley · 13 Nov 2009, 20:48 (Ref:2581584)

Good job you are not coming over on the ferry, you would probably end up in Hull.

Copperbottom · 13 Nov 2009, 20:51 (Ref:2581588)

I've heard that the Tunnel's going to be closed due to the threat of a tidalwave!
