My first blog, a blogging virgin. Bless.

Thought I would give it a go, a sort of year to date blog.

First event was the Red Kite, with the head of the blackwood mafia, Bob Gibbons, in his trusty RS2000. A bit of an indifferent day really, Bob not getting 'at it' at all, a long layoff from the forests being one reason I'm sure. The 'Kite' was excellent, I love halfway especially the last 3 miles up to the finish near Dixies. The weather was awful, constant rain making the stages very slippery. Great to see BMC running a stage start, even 850 was out in the rain, and of course McMuck was all cosy in his car because he had 'man flu'. Bless.

Bob is thinking of doing the Gremlin (not with me) before the car gets a refresh and bubble arches. Shame I can't do the gremlin, sounds like it will be an epic. What is it about bubble arches, personally I don't like them. Spoils the car.

Next events will be with Peter Lewis from Hereford in his Anglia, currently being 'sorted' to try and improve the handling, terminal understeer is not recommended. We hope to do a couple of rounds of the HRCR historic challenge, to see how he compares against fellow historics.

Thats enough for now, lets see if it works................
