Cradley V Buxton 13 June Nl Ko Cup 2nd Leg


Recommended Posts

Well I have to say I actually enjoyed the drama. There was something going on in nearly every race, mainly involving us falling off or having the gremlins or forgetting to turn the fuel on!.

 

I couldn't believe we actually pulled that one out of the fire. We looked dead and buried at one stage. For a team that got battered at home at the weekend Buxton certainly turned up with a positive attitude and they all gave it a real go. Nathan and Ellis were out to prove a point and nearly made it. Couldn't stop a chuckle when Ellis tried to warm his tyre up before the last race and ended up with a puncture (I think) on the first bend.

 

Cleggy, Ben and James all performed to their very best and got us out of jail. I hope James wasn't too badly hurt in his second pile up. It looked really nasty.

I agree, it had everything, except a punch up! or did i see a little action behind the pits between Chessell & perks?

I admit i'm not a great fan of James Purchase but i wouldn't want to see anybody get hurt, But he does park it coming into the first bend. Thats 4 maybe 5 times he's been rammed at the same spot this season.

Yes Pete. I agree and he's a big old unit to get round. Have to say his catch and pass after forgetting his fuel taps was amazing. I'm old enough to remember Ivan Mauger doing that once.

 

I thought Layne Cupitt was a breath of fresh air. His enthusiasm was amazing. Ok he over did it a few times but he was giving it 100%.and that's all you can ask for. I think that was probably the most entertaining 'zero' I can ever remenber seeing!
