Saw him/raced against him/got my arse kicked by him at a charity karting event a few weeks back, he was in good spirits, but still had his concerns - even in the relatively non physical karts that we were racing (Twin engine Pro-Kart tanks) he felt he wasn't quite right - but that was partially because his seat stantion broke on the second lap.... Roll Eyes

Good to see him back competing - a truly nice bloke, who was more than happy to chat about both how to tackle the circuit we were racing on, and his experiences at Le-Mans.

Says the man who came stone cold last - LAST! - at the DfH karting tournament at Bleekemolen track at Delft, despite flying out his own helmet and monogrammed nomex race suit! Me and Paul Z couldn't breath with laughter as Steve Z lapped you on the second lap! Wink

So Bill, are you Andy, Brad and Bob's dad then?...

And wasn't Davidson one of the 'drive the Audi of the track' gang a few years ago?

I do not wish any driver an accident but perhaps what goes around does come around... I think it does anyway proved by the fact that my wife now keeps me awake with HER snoring.

DAD!  Shocked

I know I'm of an elderly disposition but I say...



(I'm not sure why but I'm sort of kind of glad-ish that my ONLY son won't come to LM with me)

I can't speak for the others but Bill lived just down the road from us when I was born... and my mum had a Cortina estate that used to break down a lot, often on a wet and windy night, and she was a member of the AA...  (Scratches chin).  Huh

The best part of this, is that I've never mentioned, for fear of embarrassing Lord Zarse, that whilst he is not my father, he is technically old enough for it to be possible.  Given that he has clearly felt the need to bring up a very unfortunate trip to a kart track in Holland (and exaggerate the truth a little), he can shove his feelings. 

If you want the really weird twist, my father IS on Club Arnage, and posts under a different name....

The other odd twist is that my actual father, is only marginally older than Lord Zarse. As well as the fact that Andy Zarse, also has a son who is only a matter of months older than my son....

Strange the twists life throws up.... Fortunately, having Andy Zarse I his 20's and 30's as my role model growing up isn't one of them, else it's likely that I'd be even more of a little sh*t than I am now  Grin
