So I saw in the other thread Rob, but noone offered to crawl under and take a look at it did they...? :D
(Don't worry, I'm only stirring Iain anyway... I know you guys made sure he got home safe.)
The Zone is a great place for people looking out for each other.

Hey Guys, good to see y'all again and Justin for the first time (sorry didn't get to chat much Justin- im sooo rude!) and Jamie and family all the way from Eastbourne way (hope little one's trainers tried out!!) Good pix Gordo et al and i was amazed at how speedy you and Jamie buggered off and left us trailing behind DaveT (only kidding Dave!) think there must be some kind of restrictor on your engine or something!! winkeye Iain was full of excuses as to why he couldn't go faster winkeye (id better spend some £ quickly on my clapped out engine before he actually takes me up on a race and thrashes the crap out of me!!) and it was funny to see everyone rush to help Lisa and left Iain to cope with no gears!! Who says looks get you nowhere!! winkeye i am surprised Rob didnt go sideways more but glad we didnt find any water for him to play in winkeye and finally 'nob of the day' award goes to me and Paul for our driving antics- Paul for his 40ft wheelspin in a gravel carpark and me for a 100mph+ 4 car overtake- we are driving gods!! winkeye
Great to see everyone and look forward to the next time- over and out...

Nice pics from Dave T definately. I need some lessons.
What he lacks in quantity, he makes up for in quality...
I just point and click, and hope I get some good shots...

I tried taking a few of mine, and this is the best I got...

Love the Dorsetttttt sense of humour and planning.

So you going two days early ?

Tis on a Sunday young Gordon.

Or are you that keen.

Dont forget your flourescent vest, emblazon it with E30 ZONE and beneath it your username.

Sunday ok not Saturday !

Mods meet early to get the peeps in.

Appreciate your help.
