ask scolding for some lessons :D:D:D:D that Piazza needs a little more prep I think, (cut at least 3 coils :D:D:D:D)

best double ditching lap I've ever seen.....in fact the only one I've ever seen.


Nick mate, you had Kiki and Manish on there feet applauding you

entertaining as always,the first stack into the gravel i put down to being to indecisive after my teammate ,piazza driver will,said he was handbraking the first at 85mph yet i was 4th gear flicking speed unknown just as fast as she would go,this momentary "shall i do this or do that" made me leave it to late thus running out of track

as for the 2nd ,well that was me being me

LMAO :wack: It was fantastic Nick. We were all sitting along the pit wall, as soon as you got half way down the straight towards the second bend we just looked at each other like..."he's going to put it in the gravel again". Gravel covered tyres, gravel pouring out the car...squeaaaall....lock up...splosh. And the recovery vans just turn around and follow you.

Hilariously good stuff. :thumbs:

What you need is, Steve to even out the imbalanced front end :D

I think you should mod the piazza by putting a match in the tank.

The gravel excuse is actually a pretty good one (for the second ditching anyway). When shaking the gravel out of my car after my disasterous first corner, it was losing grip with even moderate braking/accelerating on the stones. Silverstone's gravel is curiously round and marble-like.

Don't beat yourself up over double-ditching. Everyone has off days.

Please elaborate upon your reasoning behind such a comment...

(I assume you mean a lit match?)

I think we should introduce a "Jester Class :D " for those who provide entertainment to the crowds & drivers alike.

They score points for novelty moves & the amount of gravel dumped on the track, no doubt, Nick, CMU, Phil would have all scored highly in this round. :thumbs:

Can I score points for gravel (clay?) dumped in the pitlane? I was worried other cars were going to get stuck in the improptu trap I'd created when I braked for my parking spot :D

The video got corrupted on the camera, and it's taken me a while to work out how to recover it. I have it now though, and will be doing an amusing failure vid shortly :D
