I absolutely reject Mary's assertion that my race reports are anything but accurate, down to the last little detail as many present will have noticed I take great pains to seek out all relevant facts, and indeed fictions.
I pride myself on my dedication to presenting the reader with a fair and impartial record of events both on and off the track. Any suggestion that I do not take the job seriously, and concentrate on a cheap laugh over truth is quite absurd. [-X
Now has anybody the number for a shady libel lawyer? #-o

NB; Let's see what a hash others make of reporting on Snetterton, then maybe Miss Smith might begin to appreciate my skilful, and professional approach to the job. :oops:

Steady on Bob, no need for a persecution complex! I just said that the report is interesting and individual, no less than we expect of such a consummate professional!

Bob's very accurate and very skilled photos are also available via the web site plus those of David Stallard.
Thank you both gentlemen.

Greg Parnell's report on race 1 from the driver's seat is also on the web site.

Thanks to all for your helpful and prompt contributions.

Michele Bailey's lively account of race 2 is now on the web site. So interesting to get the view from the other end of the grid! :OO:

Many thanks Michele, must have a word with Jerry Knight about his "Top Tips"…... :-k

Two excellent reports from Greg and Michele, I really need not have bothered myself. :cry:

Small criticisms; Greg failed to reveal exactly what he was 'on' to show such a rare turn of speed, although that may indeed be the answer in itself. :shock:

Michele also omitted to tell us what she was knitting during races. It is this sort of detail that can so enthral the reader, and make reports so much more interesting. [-X

Bob, without your input from an unbiased (?) point of view we would not get the full picture so thank you for your sterling efforts! =D>

If you read her report you will see that Jerry Knight gave her some advice on knitting patterns…..

That explains the hat he was wearing. See Paddock pictures.

I appeared to suffer a camera malfunction at Snetterton, and struggled to produce any decent images, deleting more than half of what I took. So good to see that someone captured the action from the Challenge with some very nice shots. Only upside is mine are at least free. :)

Hopefully Jerry will be at Silverstone and I can get a few tips on photography. [-o<

What ever it was Greg, you were certainly 'on it'. I was not alone in remarking on your excellent drives, we look forward to more hot action at the VSCC. I am sure that your rivals hope that you will not follow 'topless' with full frontal! That might be too much to bare.

Bob, all your photos are of a high standard and we appreciate you making them available to us free of charge.
The other photographers do charge for copies of theirs so we are fortunate to have your support. =D>
