Default Bad sportsmanship?

I've just taken the body off my car from the final yesterday to find this:



Nice eh? The belt is now fubared and will need replacing

It looks like we have a joker who thinks it's funny/clever to f**k about with other peoples cars.

It's shit like this that makes me wonder why I spend my money and time (away from my family) doing this shit. It is just not cricket.

Unfortunatley I think it might have been one of my so called 'friends'. Lets see if anyone owns up?

What do others think?

Has the glue attacked the belt or something ?

No, the car has been run with the tape pushing down on the belt, it's worn most of the belt away

Ah blimey, sorry to hear that dude. probably a practical joke that went wrong. Hopefully they will hold their hands up and treat you to a new belt and a cold beer.

Im sure somebody will own up to that. Im sure it would have just been a joke but its obviously back fired??

Its a bit harsh doing stuff like that at a National though, final aswell!

Bound to be a practical joke or else they would of cut the belt or jammed the fan instead. Annoying but probably a harmless prank that went pear shaped. Bit thoughtless but at least theres no major damage or costly repairs involved.

Thats just cock, messing at a club is one thing, but when you spend a lot of time, effort and money to go to a national, doing that takes the piss!!..

Got a funny feeling someone will be forced to admit it!!
