Dan

great news chris well done,

Good job Chris!!!!
You are serious about helping team durango racing:thumbsup:

What a good news story.

What does employment law state about only employing gifted drivers, not sure. Maybe their next new starter should be a poorly skilled racer of some sort.

Cool, does this mean you will be racing proper cars rather than them nitro things ;)

Is this your application for the job Stu???

Mmmmm I remember the last meeting Chris won, it would be good to see him back proper racing!!! We don't have any Christmas trees or gay bump up's or anything like that in our section!!!!

Yes was a excellent meeting, driving a cool car :drool: which Chris co-designed with me.

Chortle!

A proper car, proper driver, and a proper track!!!!! I miss those good ol days:thumbsup:

Oh Hi Jimmy, nice to see you on here, between the retards talking rubbish about not receiving notice about a meeting they can't attend!!! WOW how do you keep your mind clear with all that crap?? haha Enjoy your crimbo break:thumbsup:

Thank god :thumbsup:

Oh yeah!!!! Keep that crap in the 8th section, where the real racing is.....phmwha haha sorry, gagged for a sec.... Gay bump up crap is like eating vomit!!!!!

Nitro will still be my main focus as a racer, with a DNX408 to use, why wouldn't it be... :woot:

for the record, I like bump-ups! :thumbsup:

Stu - haha

Chris you have changed ;) next you will be telling us you run yellow wheels on your nitro thing.

I believe he did that at epr also! proper car with proper wheels!!! lol
Congratulations on the job mate, I'm sure you will be a great asset to the team.:thumbsup:

yes Griff, I did use your car with yellow wheels... but I refused to run the yellow body with flowers on it! :)

oh and someone asked what F grade I am... I believe I will be rocking an F3 grade in 10th scale for 2011

Doughty = top driver!! Yellow wheels, bump ups & 8th = GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't see what the big deal is with Yellow wheels!! They stand out more so you can see where your car is on the track.

Think those who call them gay are actually insecure about themselves, so anyone who calls them gay from now on is actually admitting to being gay! ha.

So you now are "GAY" A big kinda gay, as you are so big, but you are still gay, and even gayer if you run yellow wheels!!!

DC has finally come out everyone! Dont ever turn your back on him, unless you wanna get DC'd!! ha.

Gayness argument aside, they are still slower - white spokes were the fastest last Sunday at Chadderton :p

What about 2wd???? Which colour wheels actually ended up winning in both classes????? No point in been quick if you keep crashing!!! hahaha. :p

White wheels are faster, and Craig is Bi-Curious for saying so much about Gays!!! There is nothing wrong about being gay Craig, just stop beating around the bush and come out.......doh, I didn't mean to upset you about the bush thingy!!!!! You may still like busy, but bi-curious is the best way to describe you..............:p:thumbsup:
