Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He
Sorry for the exceptionally long multi quote lol!
Best of luck mate. I won't be able to make it tomorrow but hope it all goes smoothly
Thanks mate
Went a lot more smoothly than the last few times out!
^^^^ what he said,
have a great one chap,
Hope my text didn't wake you up mate, Thought it was better at that time than 1 or 2 in the morning though
Thanks again!
Cheeky bugger :rasp:
Just been looking through the timing solutions data.
Looks like a successful first day out mate.
The burpspeed car was fecking epic though, going to be a long time before you are challenging guys, but that was always going to be the case.
A mid field finish and a sub 1 minute best lap must be everything you were hoping for realistically on a first outing?
Really chuffed for you mate
Gutted I couldnt be there to watch.
Yes mate thank you I was over the moon! My honest aim was just to finish but I still wanted to get stuck in and get learning
Yes it's an awesome car they have, I always knew it would be and everything so far has exceeded my expectations so I'm happy with my progress
I nearly binned it coming into the last corner on the last lap lol! But when I came over the finish line I was ecstatic, I didn't have a clue where I had come although knew I had lost a load of time through the pitstop but I was just so happy to finish! Can't describe the feeling
Thanks again Chip and hopefully you will be able to come along to one of them over the course of the year!
Flol at jay!
Nice end result! Made the best of a bad situation, car looked brilliant as ever!
Haha I know whats he like lol
Yes really happy, Thanks again for you guys coming and really sorry I didn't get longer to speak to you all, was all a bit hectic!
Jump start?
No idea where you finished but sounds like you did well congratulations.
Followed a few guys through the red/blue light at the end of the pit lane in the safety car period and got my times disallowed and got 4 points on my licence! Thank you very much
Think it refers to an incident in qualifying? Noticed that you started at the back of the grid and car 12(James) had a footnote regarding MSA on the timings sheet. Great first race result overall though. Nice one!
Thank you very much
!
lol
Nice to meet you today James. Good effort for your first race, especially from the starting position
Great to meet you too Mark, Thanks yes it was a great hoot starting from there and then having to do it all again after the pitstop! Will be great to have you on the grid too! Where is your first race? Sorry I didn't get longer to chat
I don't know where all the time went!
Did well for his first outing, there were alot of new drivers in the field and some clearly very seasoned pro's. Was great spectating.
Thanks Andy was great to finally meet you and thanks for coming all the way down to support, I really appreciate it! I hope you had a better journey back up north as we got pounded by awful weather most of the way back! I feel bad you came all that way and I hardly got a chance to speak with you
I look forward to having a proper chat at Llandow!
Nice to meet you today James, and congrats on where you finished in the race! Here's a couple of pictures my brother took today through qualifying and the race...
Good luck for the next race.
Cheers
Nick
Thanks again for the photo's Nick, Was great to meet you and look forward to seeing you at Anglesey if you are coming!
Well done James, in the end it all worked out for you, and was probably for the best, it gave you chance to enjoy yourself.
Again, well done mate, sorry if we kept you up too late after dinner.
Thanks again Tony, Yes it really did and what with getting stuck in the pit lane at the safety car and having to do all the overtaking again it gave me lot's of practice! The video is hilarious to be fair! Although the video of when you went past that red car with dodgy wheel made for scary viewing! It was so close you when he lost it!
Really appreciate everything you have done for me over the last few months mate! Dinner was awesome and was so nice just to spend the evening and chill out
Yes well done mate. I was watching from the back of the garages after my stint and you were not lacking confidance. Loads more pace to come from you
Thanks yeah I was trying my best and getting a bit carried away in places and not sticking to what Howard had taught me
But still had a great time and learnt so much to take forwards! Need to do the setup work and then should have a great year of building experience! As with Tony thanks for all your help over the last few months with bbm's and all the advice you've given me
Without you guys I would of been nervous for it all but from everything you had told me it all went smoothly!
Well done for today! Car looked awesome. Here are a few of my shots from the day, I am still sorting through them. I will post up a thread with any others.
Thanks again Matt and sorry I don't think I spoke with you yesterday
It wasn't on purpose just so many new faces it was hard to keep track of everything going on! Hopefully meet you at another race
Car looks very good
Thanks Colin
Would be good to see you at Anglesey if you can make it!
Must say congrats on your first race! (and your first points) he he
Haha Thanks Mike! I was so gutted about the points
Great to se you again yesterday and see you at Anglesey
16th and starting from the back, well done mate. Hope you enjoyed it.
Thanks Mark yes I was over the moon with it and had so much fun!
Points mean prizes, we all know that.
Matt keeps telling me the same thing lol
Car looked stunning, nice to see 3 different Clios out there...
Thank you very much they are some awesome photos! Do you mind if I use them in my write up please? No worries if not
