It's taken 9 hours today, but with the help of Craig, Shaft and DanE we've stripped the v8 out of the kitcar, fitted a new clutch cylinder and put it all back together in record time!

It was a job i had no motivation to do having only put it all back together a couple of weeks ago but without even being asked, craig, nick and dan all came round first thing this morning, took the pi55 and got stuck in to work.

I know it sounds cheesy but I feel truely greatful to have such fantastic friends like that.

Thats guys :)

Got sunburn on bald patch while in queue for the car show & added more redness during day at a great Basinstoke show --- spent pocket money on things I'll probably not use ; but they were cheap.

Went to Brands and watched Blancpain racing. Not as good as btcc but good enough.

Best racing even though it was slower paced was the MX5s.

44 cars on the first race and 37 in the second.

Different cars in both races as they couldn't let to many on the track at once.

They had a third race, I think to decide the overall winner but left before it had began. Had to get home in time for sons visit.

I enjoy Brands Hatch. Especially days like today at two for one ticket prices.

Used to get in for nowt but the power station let their box go.
