I too know many top racers, Cragg, Martin, Stafford, Bradby, Moss, Williams, and a few yanks I met in Japan 2 years ago, these guys race cause they want too, not cause they will get paid for where they go. fair enough, they may not want to go win the local series, but they should want to win the worlds, wether or not they make loads of money!!!!

I completely, 100 percent, agree. Thats why our hobby is no longer graced by one of the greatest racers of all time, Matt Francis. That guy was so gracious for everything and so helpful (he set up my XXX for me at So Cal in 2000 and still from what I remember is the best handling car I have ever driven). It is a shame that those attitudes drove him out of the hobby (among other things).

ANYHOOOO, hows the 4wd going?? Congrats Martin A!!!

Building a clay track is dead easy - building and financing a large indoor one is the tricky bit.. I've been considering it for a while at blyth. Covering it in astro wouldn't really work. One day im sure we will have one, just not sure when..might be a while :s

Fair play dood!!! This is still a sport/hobby that very few get paid for, so the top dood's should still race cause they want too!!! Not cause they have too!!!

BA! race proper? If by that you mean I have to race with my genitals tucked between my legs like a girly man, then Ill stay in the states.

If I went to race your national series it would be sandbagging, cause I am as you all know the best, IE American.

plonker - dope, idiot, moron, wally, pillock, dunderhead, dimwit
div - Actually originates from prison slang in the UK. A job often given to the lowest inmates was to put cardboard dividers into boxes. Someone given this job was a 'divider' or a 'div'. Now used as an insult to those who display stupidity.
chav -
Picture this a young lad about 12 years of age and 4 ½ feet high baseball cap at ninety degrees in a imitation addidas tracksuit, with trouser legs tucked into his socks (of course, is definitely the height of fashion). This lad is strutting around, fag in one hand jewellery al over the over, outside McDonalds acting as if he is 8 foot tall and built like a rugby player, when some poor unsuspecting adult (about 17/18) walks round the corner wanting to go to mcdonalds for his dinner glances at the young lad, the young lad jumps up in complete disgust and says “Whats your problem? Wanna make sommin of it? Bling Bling” when the adult starts to walk towards the young lad, the young lad pisses himself and runs off to either his pregnant 14-year-old girlfriend or his brother in the army crying his eyes out.

We have a name for all of those too... none of which PC

This is pure classic mate...

The problem with the yanks is that they think America is the whole world...as for them being bright? Nah...They are the easiest to brainwash...that's why crappy buy it now tv ads works so well over there.. " Can't get your woman satisfied? Don't worry, now with the latest magic finger you can! Just make 3 easy payments of $9.99 and we'll throw in the magic tongue as well! " Only crap ads like this will work in the USA...oh and don't forget, Televangelism works over there too..cos most yanks are couch potatoes who likes fiddling around with their tv remote...
