well folks what did you's all think off today and did you's enjoy it?

i myself had a belter day, and really really love the layout, the fact an underpowered car like my own was able to link the course was awesome, and even at the end after the comp, managed to link every corner and straight

on a down side, some pikey barstewards stole wheelnuts from my trailer, how do i know they were stolen, well they were tightned before i left the house, and still on when i arrived at bishopscourt! on the way out heard a clunking, got out to find that there were 2 vauxhall bolts in one of my wheels ,and what looked like 2 in the other, checked them for tightness and seemed ok, only to find out 5 mins down the road the ones on the left side were cross threaded nuts and the wheel came off! in a farmers feild, so traveled home on 3 wheels


like i say i had an awesome day, just a shame that was my only dissapointment, might stop me making tomorrow's event, which i really dont want to do but unless i get another wheel, the trailer will not tow over 25mph without getting it's death wobble on!

Despite my horrendous skills, I really enjoyed my short period out on track before having to call it a day with inadequate cooling issues. :mad::mad: Was my first time out at Bishopscourt, and can't wait for the next one! I suggest BC should be the venue for all the AMA events! :cool:

Sorry to here that bibby. Hope u get sorted for today.

I enjoyed my self today and the short bc track is deffo good for the underpowered cars plus lots of extra room in the pits and on the track whic means more track time

i had a great day bishopscourt is an animal track cant wait for the next ama there just have a bit of cosmetic damage to sort out for it thanks to a third gear corner and a puddle of water! thankfully didnt blow anything up this time except maybe a ****load of tyres!
third gear corners were deadly craic never done that in a cam before bit trickier keeping the power though,practise makes perfect as the say
extra space is class and no problems queing
thats bad form bibby ye think yed be safe locking your tools in your van or whatever but fukin ****s robbin wheel nuts

such a great place for ama comps:cool: did the comp actually happen tho think there was so much track time there wasnt many cars left to go out on the track due to lack of tyres, broke down or just had enough craic for the day. never got out long got about 4 laps then clutch went was the white s13. is it stayin here now or goin bak to nutts?

This was the 1st AMA comp i've been to and will definitely be back! Good days crack and far better value than the test sessions!
