    Willie Robertson, Willie Crail on this site

    was racing at Knockhill at the weekend and was stunned to hear that Willie had died after an accident at home. He ran Crail raceway and raced his gorgeous Rebello engined 240Z at knockhill in the scottish classics.Nice guy gone way too soon!

    Croft

    Well 2 races on Sunday at Croft this weekend, tried to get some new Kumho's and was given the strangest excuse possible!! They can't supply tyres for sale this week as they have all gone tyre testing at Zandvoort! So stuff the paying customer, British customer service at its best!!

    Croft 11th & 12th May

    well another double header weekend at Croft ahead, hope my new tyres arrive in time, the left side are pretty scruffy after the last meeting. Bad news is no pre-race testing so going to have to go out in qualifying with new discs on the front as well, not really ideal.

    Oops!

    the result of having 8000+rpm on in 2nd gear and selecting 1st instead of 3rd gear. Strange thing is they don't seem to finally give up and break till 3 or 4 races after the event!

    Croft 8th 9th sept

    well got a busy weekend to come at Croft. Customer Mazda MX5 is doing 4 races and i've got the 'Z' out for 2 races as well. i will be using Kumho tyres for the first time. this is mainly due to the lousy service, i.e. no service, from Toyo UK who obviously don't want peoples business.

Still 9.500 miles has been a good shakedown, just have to wait a...
