Just back from a couple of days exhibiting at Kartmania, the UK kart show. Best part about it? Putting on my work uniform and it didn't stink of 2-stroke oil! Love working indoors.

When I was a kid, the MG Car Club used to hold its annual premier Autotest just here. I learned to drive outside where I'm stood now. Club Corner has changed a bit since then!

I'm not on track today (thankfully given the weather) but still at a track as I'm exhibiting at the kart show at Silverstone Circuit. It's lashing down outside, I'm feeling kinda smug I'm dry and warm.

Long weekend working at the kart track. Went into the warehouse early to empty and return hire van, came back home then back this afternoon to start folding up wet awnings, sorting boxes etc. I was spectacularly useless so came home for a cheese toastie and a snoooooooooozzzzzzzzze

I'm lucky enough to have chosen a DD to match exactly those criteria. This fitted on fun, practicality and cost. Air con for the nice day, windscreen wipers for the trip home in the rain and a hatchback to carry the tool kit and spares!

Someone is comfortable, and I don't think it's me! World, meet Austin.

Long day with the kart team. The A34 at drivetime truly is the Road to Hell. Then an accident on the A4 and Google lied about the delay. Totally ate up my "beer at a country pub" time 😂 This little gem is right alongside my route home, but I had to drive on!

So is this an advert for a half price or a half size pizza?

So this is what I call work. Two sessions ago this lad was barely above walking pace. Still a long way to go but the improvement is massive. And in his off kart demeanour!

What a load of fun sprinting at Llandow today. MiniMaxAttaq won the class for the first time in his Midget/Nissan, I was right in the mix for once in the ZR and ended up P4 of 7. I only run on road tyres, the rest of the guys were on semi slicks. Huge fun, got no brakes left now!

Another old slide....my dad at Trengwainton hill climb mid 1960s. Son and grandson have carried on the Spridget tradition.

We found some old family photo slides and had them scanned. That's me as a kid in a friend's MGTF, the XK150 my dad restored before and after, plus our "fleet" at home. Early 1970s I reckon.

It's a motor sport weekend for me. Three days off from work - prep the MG today then a circuit sprint tomorrow. Down at Llandow near Cardiff, ironically I'll be back there again working with the kart team on Wednesday! Picture shows me at Prescott recently.

Devastating news for Power Maxed Racing (PMR), one of the most popular teams on the BTCC grid. A fire has completely destroyed everything. Race team, business, the lot. My heart goes out to everyone involved.
I know them slightly due to work I undertake for one of their technical partners.

Sat in a Premier Inn (for those not in UK it's a chain of no-longer-budget hotels advertised by a minor TV star) eating a (GF) Full English breakfast at 0730 on a Sunday before a day at the track. Living the dream! Home tonight 😃 then rinse and repeat. Pic for explanation

Yay go me on TV!
Prescott is a great place, dripping with history and a cool drive. I had a great battle and beat my rival by 5/100ths!
Hill climbing is an eclectic sport. The more you spend, the faster you go, the less time you're driving. I may be slow but my VFM is marvellous!
