TOO FAST TO RACE !
Many of my fellow Track Attack competitors will be happy to know that this morning I have been Banned from all future  Track Attack events for being too Fast!

Irony is my car is very much a budget car compared to many out there with an engine that's cost just 3K under the hood that's not been even been touched for four years now, as the increase in speed has come from the chassis rather than the engine !!.

Many thanks to all my fellow Track Attackers for some great Racing over the seven years and to Steve Vince for his support from when  the car first appeared and was viewed as a laughing stock till I made it reliable !!! 🤣🤣🤣
All the best Clive

What an absolute joke !

Words fail me. Especially on a family friendly forum.

Yes, I caught the 4000HP comment too but assumed it was a hapless slip of the tongue rather than a conspiracy.  It would make more sense if there was no class structure in the races but they are probably all too young to remember that the precursor to the current homogenised BTCC 'show' was often won overall by a small capacity car that dominated its class rather than races. According to Motorsport magazine this month, that was too complicated a concept for racers and spectators even then.  Not quite how I remember it but I am verrrrry old these days. 

Curious to know if the "Too Fast to Race" lobby includes the Clio that was just three tenths slower than you round Mallory - a race you returned a DNF from?  Perhaps he's next on the list!

You could consider the ban success ballast of the highest order I suppose and, with a thirty five car entry, Mr Track Attack obviously no longer has to scratch round for entries so keeping 'most of the people' happy will be his primary concern.  The combined grid in the Thunder, Boss and Classic saloon series has a similar disparity in performance between the cars but perhaps fewer of the drivers are likely to be dreaming of a professional touring car seat and consequently less sensitive to the idea of their individual brilliance not being recognised by a mid-field finish - even if they do win their class.  In a world where perception is truth perhaps they can be forgiven for assuming not being seen to win constitutes unfairness!  :D :D :D

You're moving up the ranks, Clive. Before long you'll be in the sports prototype category, racing 787Bs and Porsche 962s.   :great:

Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

Anyone know where I can get a few of these done and be with me by Saturday?
All the best Clive

Mr Spiller

I'm sure a local embroidery place could do them
