The return of Bertie
It was wet yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, Bertie qualified 31st on Saturday morning and made it up to 23rd in the race in the afternoon.
Starting 23rd for race 2 yesterday we managed to nip up into 15th before the red flag was shown. May move up a bit more yet as official results still to be declared. Under the rules cars not running at the red flag should be removed from the result which is taken from the previous complete lap.
YouTube has some good in car from dickj85 of both races - type in Brands Hatch BARC Tin Tops 03/11/2012. A certain French car appears in both

Hi Gary, I see you're using the C5 steelies. I have a set myself (the flat faced ones) and am going about buying another set (the tapered ones). Just wondered which you're using, and what wheelbolts you are using with them?
I have a set of standard tapered bolts (steel type) for the tapered-seat wheels, so I imagine these will be an easy fit. However, I would like to use the others too (not worried about the recall as the BX weighs half a C5). Is there an off-the-shelf bolt kit that will work with these?

Round one is out of the way. 2 finishes, nothing spectacular, got to 24th from 32nd in race 1 and up to 21st for race 2. Tad annoyed at being passed under yellow flag; damned annoyed that he then slid wide into the driver's door!
