yeah the clio V6 group were on for a lap of honour last year
nice slow drive round to honour him, stop on the grid, engines off for a 2 min silence, then start them back up and rev the cars a bit, would be a nice send off especially with the welsh flag on the car etc

if something is done as a mark of respect at fcs then ill come, i wasnt going to because i dont own a french car anymore, but now i feel like ive got a very good reason to go. even if theres nothin official it would be good for us all to sit down and have a drink together in memory of him.
also, it still angers me that his life was taken by someone else driving badly (i know ive said this previously in this thread) so please, any young guys who have recently started driving and try to show off, read this thread and think twice before driving like a dick.

i hope the officials of fcs will allow us to stop engines. 1 min silence.
i am pleased about the response about the welsh flag over the bonnets. i have already brought mine.
i hope Simo could get some stickers made * R.I.P gav / Japman *
get 200+ made. sell them at the show for people to buy and all the money at the end of the day goes to gav's dad.
as said drive carefully everyone

R.I.P. Japman, thoughts are with your family and friends.
Never spoke to you i don't think, but the comments in this thread bring a tear to your eye when you read them.
If the memorial lap goes ahead, could i ride shotgun with someone, as i'll be at FCS but my car won't be, so i can't take part myself?
