on serious note, alex is a fag

on a more serious note, if i take wheels off when putting them on i go around the car twice at least checking all, and again i do them as tight as i can, which is tight when you see my guns. pow pow

Very strange for wheel nuts to just fall off.... but i've been in a land rover, which went around a roundabout and with a bang, we stopped to see one of our wheels roll down the road.... luckly the old rover managed to keep rolling on 3 wheels lol!

Crazy mo' fo'!!!

Luckily haha!?
Legging it down the road after a wheel FTL.

I am 100% sure i won't have left the wheel bolts too loose, i'm sure red must have had the wheel off, for cleaning arches and underside of car i guess?!

Cos i've worked on 50+ peoples cars, probably taking other peoples wheels off over 200 times. i used to work on my vts on a weekly basis and must have had the wheels off several hundred times seeing as i had it for 4 years, and had them off several times per weekend sometimes for various jobs. And never once has anyone complained about loose wheel bolts, it's the one thing that i don't like about working on other peoples cars, is that if anything goes wrong you can't tell who's to blame, and i always make sure people are happy with how tight their wheel bolts are.

I'm disappointed that red has named me as the last person to touch them, as i'm sure i wasn't.

That is all.

Sand in the vagine...
Jokes.

As said everything is the drivers responsibility tbh.
Wheels havnt been touched apart from cleaning whilst still on since Ferodo's went on but im not blaiming anyone man and everyone should know how much of a meticulous whore Alex is lol
On a serious note. i've never doubted your work mate and still need to catch up over a BBQ and a few beers before the Ring. Really appreciate all the shit you've sorted on mine

Only the front left wheel bolts were loose which is weird.
Everything was double or triple-checked before leaving for the hotel so i dont have the foggiest tbh just glad everything and everyone was ok!

it doesnt matter who was last to do them, its upto the driver to make sure everything is ok

glad you survived red and your clutch when you reverse park into a bay you noisy fucker

Not that die hard mate haha

Lost a wheel nut around wellingbrough somewhere tho
Got to the hotel and sorted the wheel then went for a gentle drive to test everything and make sure the car would make it to the show, unlike poor Alex-VTS's shed

Checked everything again early doors before we set off then again at the show and before the track sesh. Tbh i didnt think id make it on but glad everything was ok and the car ran well

Cheers Jay lol, few clutches and driveshafts took a battering there from people lol.

-Not as much of a battering as Amiee tbh...
