No but the X6 was the moral victor today after Mcgoo broke our gentlemans agreement and put new(er) tyres on for the final

All in one piece after a day at the CML Raceway. No retightening either.

Bang slap in the mid table. Just where I've been aiming for.

The cheating bugger, I didn't notice that - he managed to keep that quiet...

Today I broke a rear shock tower and mangled a spur gear, not bad considering how high I jumped at Worksop.... oooops.

Chris, was loving your work with the rear tower!!!!! and btw, i had a spare B4 chassis with me!

For the record - i didn't technically "break" anything (which was a surprise!). Had one way outdrive ring keep coming off - and stripped a ball cup - but that's all fairly normal!
