Well that's might noble of you Dougie. 10 secs.....you T-Boned me that's why lol.I dropped 5 places but still gained 2nd If that's the case...first heat I was 13th ended up 2nd. You I recall were 11th and managed 3rd. That hot you should be 1st mate. In the last race, on yellow you tried to bump a position...oh I remember!! As does Mark Campbell lol Chin up....till next one M5 is a beast without a doubt..... Tiko |

Tiko, ask Stevie about the confused look on my face as I entered the pits first (after the straggly haired marshall had given me two black and whites and then the three fingers to suggest a black was forth-coming) to be told I had won. I did know I was up there but it was a little messy near the end with back markers getting in the way.
I don't recall seeing a chequered flag and it is quite possible I was last as I did not complete the full 20 laps. I did tell the 'race co-ordinator' to NOT include me in the places but he did anyway at the presentation. If the fourth place chap wants a trophy call ScotKart as I left it with them. Anyway Tiko I still finished first in Heat 2 (10seconds in front after you were on pole as well...............) Still, the fastest guy of the day was Stevie53 who opened up the M5 on the way home!!!! What a machine!! Bring on the next time. |

Oh yeah it's good to have some friendly banter I say....beats the same mundane spiel we normally get
It actually wasn't me who insisted on the enquiry, the lad at the reception with glasses was bewildered as to why I had entered the pits last....then realised there was a problem!! You too mon ami....great bit of racing I must admit. Lets get the next date set I say Tiko |

Ha ha, they said you would bite. 'We' didn't have a marshalls enquiry, you did. I couldn't give a toss as I thought I was black flagged after t-boning slow drivers..............
You done very well. I have no excuses. I will shine my helmet for the next event............. Edited by Dougster800 |

Surprise, Surprise Well that settles it....I never spun!! End result was a dampener I must admit and hate that we had to have a marshalls enquiry but rightfully it ended up where it should be. You feel threatened by a woman airing her voice....mate sit down. It wasn't me who came down with my very own helmet and super light weight racing pumas....sorry. I don't take it that serious. Raceland?? Yeah sounds good.Better get some practice in then won't you. But otherwise great spirit and good going Douglas.... Regards Tiko Edited by m3tiko |

Great day and great banter thanks to Stevie's organisation and Kris Boyd. (never seen so many Dundonians in Cambuslang before.....)
I think the confusion at the end was due to the fact that the marshalls have taken the 'heat' positions and not the actual final 'race' positions. (see below) Did anyone see a print-out of the final 'start' and 'finishing' positions? I recall being passed once in the final by a white helmeted driver but I also passed one who had spun. Anyway it was all good fun but I wonder if Lewis Hamilton takes his burd to the track to moan at the marshalls...... If you are planning on an outdoor event steer clear of Knockhill and visit Raceland instead. You will NOT be disappointed. Great pictures and do you happen to have any close ups of me? Car 11. I'm sure Stevie will let me know if you organise anything. TTFN Edited by Dougster800 |

Well done Mr C for organisng the event Great day out and Mrs T got to come as well.
Very spirited driving indeed and must admit I was caught up in it all... Bit of confusion to the ending but it was soon sorted out. So lads who's up for Knockhill Karting?????? Show some interest and I'll make the enquiries. Tiko |
