    1 week to go fellas

    If you can let me have you average times for Thursday latest (by PM) it'll help me sort the trial order out.

    If you don't then don't be surprised if you end up starting near the back of the running order and tripping up over a slower plane!!

    Any probs - let me know

    Cheers

    Thanks Boo for organising that - was a lot of fun I was amazed that all evening there was not a single crash by anyone

    Thanks to all that took part - a pleasure flying with you all

    Congratulations to Maru the winner of the time Trail with a cool under pressure 6.56!

    And to ATAG_Dave who claimed the Classic Rally despite having Pattle in the front seat in his dress uniform and big hat!

    Thanks to all who took part for making the event fun for all and for getting up early or staying up late.

    Special thanks to Freya who took the time to rejig the course and remove the AI at the last minute despite a busy RL and equally to PanTast who set the server, set the passwords and stayed up a lot later than I suspect he wanted to in order to switch it all back for everyone else afterwards.

    S!!

    SO - Maru is gonna get set up with a Delan Clip (cos its like he needs better headtracking right!!!)

    Dave - being the man who has everything (not least far too much talent for any one person) - has generously donated his winnings to ATAG.

    The donation will be in my Name (BOO) and will be for whatever £15.00 buys you in Yankybuckarooneys these days - but its Dave's Dosh.

    Hope we gave the Gatwick Race Circuit a good final outing before the trees cometh!

    THANK YOU FREYA!!

    If you aint tried it - DO! .....before it goes......its the best "Value Added" feature of any flight sim EVER!

    S!!

    Just to add my thanks to Freya - had so much fun on the courses hes put up over the past couple of years, some of the best evenings Ive had in Clod have been spent with great people having fun on his race tracks. Cant imagine clod without an air race circuit trees or no trees....

    And Dix missed it - I say lets do it again before we have to nag Freya to design us a new course around the trees in 4.5!

    S!

    Yup, many thanks everybody,
    that money helped me to finally get the delanclip after waiting for so long ( it is very annoying to use the joystick buttons to look around you know...),

    I just ordered it and Im so happy !!

    So thanks again for the race, I actually enjoyed it and had many laughs.. (Sorry Ceaser for being a bad copilot opening the hatch door and many other things.. )


    I want to salute..
    my father, my mother, my future kids, my cousins, my grandma, grandpa, my aunts and uncles my cousins again (I have many),
    my friends, my geschwader, and the entire community for being great, Im really glad to be part of it.

    Regards
