Never argue with an idiot, they'll only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Doesn't realy matter for me. We go through rain or shine. After all, we are real men.

I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

Just make sure you re proof the tent, pack waterproofs aron jumpers and thermal kecks and forget your sun lotion, hat and sun glasses/dark visor (for anyone on two wheels) and you can garuntee it will not piss down.

Talking of kecks (is that REALLY how it's spelt??) I got some new ones in M&S the other week soecially for LM. If I'd realised that they were different patterns inside and outside, I could have just bought the one pair and turned them inside out midweek.
Maybe I'll save the others for next year.

These people talk cobblers. They might as well hang some seaweed by the back door Try here - the aviation weather is pretty much spot on most of the time http://www.phd.nl/aviation/wx/From the drop down menu, select either the USAF Surface Analysis option covering 12-120 hours ahead, or the Precipitation Rate option covering 00-144 hours ahead. They're the most user friendly and relevant options. For those who remember the start of the 2001 race and the rain shortly after the start, these charts had been predicting that rain about 5 days in advance and the timing was spot on. Mark

With a car the size of yours, you can pack anything from your Artic tundra gear to your Peter Stringfellow thong Speedos. Think about us poor sods with a miniscule boot filled with a tent and a sleeping bag and a satellite dish for Robbo  Maybe I could use the dish as a sail

Thats what I like about fashion icons, at pre Q, you put us Liverpool boys to shame with all your designer gear, Ethel Austin shirt, M&S kecks,British Home store socks and to top it all Timpsom boots. If only I we were fashion icons.
