So The Commer will be on it's way down on Thursday morning; I expect to arrive some time on Saturday.

Hurrah - what wonderful news at the end of a weekend of domestice penance, paying in advance for buggering off and enjoying myself !   That's the bulldog spirit - outstandingly well done old chap!  Marvellous testament to individual perseverance etc.  ;D ;D ;D

Steve - surely not - even a Cobra with american iron under the bonnet is no match for the sheer power of the Commer at full chat..........

Disaster!! Has anyone got a rotor arm for a Commer?  :( Old one burnt out today.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

Bl**dy h**l Andy, is there no end to this years troubles?  Can't say I've got one, but is there anything else one might assist with?

Like pushing ? No, that wasn't fair but I couldn't resist.

Sh*t !!! Andy, I'm sorry to hear that. Good luck and I hope you will get it together again in time. My fingers are crossed.
I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

Dizzy cap also full of hairline cracks and it's sparking out all over the place. New gear is on order from Lucas and they've promised it'll be here by 3.00 this afternoon. If it isn't I'll have to risk it with the old knackered ones.

One way or the other, I will get there!

Hope you get the Commer sorted. Just to help things along a copy of the Commer poster now proudly displayed in the side window of the Sube for the journey over. Legal insurance policy doesn't say if it covers court action taken by the ACO but what the hell.......

Hope the old beast makes it OK.

If the new cap and rotor arm doon't arrive, Andy's I'll bring a bottle of Tippex or we can cadge some nail varnish (nonmetallic type) off Mrs RS2babe and rebuild it to "good enough status" and get you home again. No worries!
