There was one time when Craig Drescher and steven lander were sharing a room, but down the corridor some danish guys (i think) were also sharing, i think it started off by either steve or craig soaking one of the danish fellas with a bucket of water, then they replied by barging in to their room and nicking all of the bed covers from craigs room which you wouldnt think was too bad but they came back and when craig opened the door they fired a powder fire extinguisher into the room, supposedly craig and steve were hanging out the window completely covered in powder and they still had to sleep the rest of the night with the windows wide open in denmark in january

nah man, it was a hell's angel's daughter for god's sake, she was scary (i think Rob did though)! I was only 15/16 at the time, and was more concerned about not throwing up on my 3 cans of carlsberg special brew.

that same night, Lee was telling everyone in Tatton Park that there was a party going on at our tent, and free beer for everyone. We eventually stumbled back to the track area an hour later to notice hundreds of people looking for our tent. Genius!!

lol, u know him well then!

Does anyone remember a Border Counties meeting at Bridgenorth years ago when the rostrum was on a wasp's nest? During the final, i think the wasps decided to go at us, me and Lee screamed off the rostrum like little girls within seconds, and i think Phil Channon was the only person left on the rostrum, covered in wasps but not even remotely fussed. What a guy!!

Remember that one.. think it was the finals meeting.

Think it was the same year Matt Needham and the other factory Schumacher drivers came to test out the Fireblade before it's release.

oh hell yes... i remember that one... at the Ellesmere Port Civic Hall...

FMCC staged a mass walkout, and I think it left one car in the A Final... Wasn't funny at the time, but a bit of wee came out when you brought that one up Stan...

Another thing that always makes me laugh is watching stan glue tyres up... never fails to get towel, hands, other tyres glued to everything... I encourage anyone to see it... book your tickets for oswestry now!

Perhaps it's about time I admitted to this now after so many years.

Many years back.. went to a national @ Holbeach and in the middle of the night we decided to "modify" Nick Goodall's pitting tent by removing a few poles and changing it's location.

Remember waking up the following morning to the raised voices of "family" Goodall going ballistic about it.

Sorry Nick, it was funny at the time.


Seem to remember the same trick being played on the Bowaters at a Tiverton National. There was poles everywhere. Infact it seemed to happen to the Bowaters quite regularly.

We raced a few times in the hall at Bury metro, the one which is burnt to the ground, just during the winter of one year only before they made it an aerobics centre. Anyway, there was this lad called Martin McElroy and he always had to have the best, be the fastest and brag the most but he couldn't drive for toffee, although he liked showing off if chance to.

One meeting after the finals, he took his ZXR out on the outdoor track and sprayed his rear tyres with motorspray, lit them, accelerated and with a burst of flames it went out and drove back to himself again. It was dark so it looked cool.

As a crowd gathered he put more and more spray on, plus whatever else people offered. Until eventually he was driving around a ball of fire and it didn't go out, we all expected it to happen and he couldn't put it out, was hilarious watching him panic. It soon fizzled out, lots of melted bits but the car was still a runner really. Don't think I saw him again.

All in one weekend:

Then there was Gav Crolla, who brought to life an old Pred he had and raced it at Batley (might have been 2002/3). Every race it broke, was so fragile! So after the final which it did finish, he proceeded to jump on it..... and it didn't break, so I think he buried it in his garden.

Then Duncan Lomas too busy drinking to notice airbed over-inflating and going bang, blamed his girlfriend in a drunken rage and threw his credit card at her to get a Taxi home. Gav went and picked the card up "What the f@ck she meant to do with this, wave a Taxi down with it?"

Went to the Pub down the road, all went to the bar and went out to the beer garden. We all put our drinks down on this wooden bench and Stu Mahon was the first to sit down - all the drinks went.
