The gearbox blew up approx 11pm wednesday night, and seeing as we were leaving for the ring trip thursday morning that kinda screwed up our chances of going to the ring in the Mango/angry wasp...

So mOlly & I grabbed a lift with one of my mates coming on the trip in his Megane 1.9d

And obviously took it for a couple of laps...

p.s. he's never done any laps before hence the directions you can hear on the video from me.

There was 24 of us this year on the ring trip that I organise, it was a fantastic weekend

The lads also kindly (some may say stupidly) let me take there cars round the ring for a lap

Lea's Clio 200.... 9:12 BTG

Mathias 160bhp Saxo.... 9:12 BTG

AlexB's 185bhp 106.... 9:02 BTG

And quickest of the lot (amazingly) was Nickheads 165bhp (my old engine) 106.... 8:59 BTG on road tyres with no brackes after half a lap!

On the way back from the Ring' we had some fun in the tunnels...
