Club Arnage Shirt spotted at Daytona

[Paddy_NL]

Just spoke to Sander (planetlemans.com), who is at Daytona Speedway at the moment. Have to say the engine sounds in the background make me all the more eager for the European series to start as soon as possible!

But he saw a guy with a Club Arnage shirt, it was an American guy. He didn't ask the name, but according to that American guy there weren't too many English at this race.

So there you go, once again the CA Shirt is spotted again. Where next?

I'm guessing it may have been Matt Harper (lives in Florida) or a Turn 10 member (Randy?)

Hmmm, Matt Harper..........American.......??  I think you might owe him a few cold ones in Sebring Steve 

IIRC, Randy is the only Turn 10 guy with one so far. I'm not sure if Fax might have one? He's normally at the the Rolex with Matt and Dave! Did Phil make the trip down from Canada? His accent might sound American to a Dutch guy!

My consideration was that, to a guy who's first language is dutch, anyone speaking english in the US may, on first appearance, be from the US.

Keep wriggling on that hook Steve, NOW you have  insulted a Dutchman by saying he cant tell the difference between English and American!!!

Didn't make the trip down this year guys, saving the cash for the LM trip.  Dave said Matt was thinking about going over Sunday morning so it wouldn't have been him on Saturday.
I'm guessing Randy.  Does Pidge have one?

Pan fried pigeon breasts with a red wine sauce on a bed of garlic and spring onion mash with a fresh green salad

Yum, must add that to my LM menu this year.

Yes. I got him one last year as a Thank You for the breakfasts etc. It could have been him.



Do you know Les? Les is one of Pidge's buddies, they are probably about the same era. So Les comes strolling back from a walk to the paddock last year and says "Hey Pidge, look what I got from the t shirt guy down there"

Sure enough, he has a Club Arnage t shirt in his hand...he said the guy was selling them...

He must have picked it up from the cab of Pidge's van and taken it with him, then thought the t shirt guy sold it to him...


I made sure Pidge got it back! And I have one for Les this year too...

Okay, that should explain it then

[Fax]

Bet it was Pidge, we've bumped into hima couple of times at Daytona over the years.  If you ever see him at a race and he offers you orange slices....beware!

If its a case of mistaken identy country wise, my mate Mark Warden who more often than not goes over to the Daytona 24 on short notice without telling anyone, also has a CA t shirt !

What happens to me most of the time is that English people think I am a yank and Yanks think I am from Canada when I speak English. Having lived in the US for some two years ruined my accent! 

[Piglet]

So maybe it was a Dutchman in a Club Arnage shirt after all!
