As always, fun to read, thanks again Jimmy! Can you tell us what was so F'd up with your 501? At the end of Day 6 report, you mention some re-wiring?

[niggs98]

nice one jimmy as always on the report and frued i still have the mental imagine of big joe trying to find radio luxemburg . think jimmy needs to make up some team pompino stickers for those in the know although maybe not if we have to hit italy again pmsl

[jimmy]

Ahh, complex, I took one 501X, not my main one - car was wired up but badly and it was a mess. Mike rewired it so I could practice with it but you have to choose one chassis and I chose the Durga even tho the 501X felt good

I had a good week at the euros, well done to Neil, my week was erm..... Eventful.

On the way there a lorry hit cones in some road works and sent them in my direction, taking out a tyre bonnet, wing, fuel cap, mirror, and scratches down the side of the audi which meant i had to do 1000 mile on a space saver. they will do more than 50mph

Then i got abused when trying to get a tyre, one guy tried to sell me and tom a porsche when i only wanted a tyre, anyway the tyre cost me 200 euros.

Then the 2wd was just plain slow, it would not steer and just didnt work for me but obviously others got it to work, well done to tom and ellis. Then my card got blocked by my bank, i thought it was just a precaution which is ok but it turns out it was cloned and im 790 euro down for now.

4wd was better in a way but i went through 4 pulleys and belts, i finished 2 runs in all of 4wd and made the E. Then in the final i did another belt and pulley set

Now i just have to sort out my insurance for the car and chase up my lost cash and rebuild both cars.

But i had a laugh

Jimmy, top top job with the report, love the relaxed approach and the additional irreverant content, looking forward to seeing more great pics.

Cheers,
Pete

And I thought I had a few troubles, after being chased out of a Restaraunt 2 days in a row, and getting caught taking food from the breakfast to the track!!!! Then watching my van spinning down the motorway with Brian driving then getting flashed by cameras, but sounds like you are the new troublemaker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the first place we paid a tenner for what we had and walked out, we were there for over an hour before we got any food and that was rice for 2 people, then another 30 min before a main dish came, that was only for 1 person, I sat there for 90 min with no food at all, but what made it worse was the Itilains sitting next to us were finishing dinner and 4 people got take aways while we were waiting, and i mean ordered it and left with it while we sat there, so we left, the crazy old bird chased us to the car, she even grabbed me I told her to F off!!!!
The next night at a different place, food came quickly, was all together, was nice to eat, we paid what they said, then when we were nearly back to the car she came running and said she forgot to charge us for the chips, we did pay the rest.

And as far as the hotel breakfast food, well, I did take 8 rolls and cakes, haha
