Re: New Racer

I think there's a picture in Motorsport News of this car nearly having an accident with a Mini.

I'll see if I can find it.

How many white BMW 3 Series Estate cars with with red and blue stripes and the number 98 on the doors can there be

Edited to say that I am not saying that the driver Nigel Innes (according to Motorsport News ) was to blame just that the mini looks to have been tipped into a spin by the faster lapping cars

Re: New Racer

Hmmmm....ever wished you'd stoped to think before you opened your mouth??? lol, your right it is the same car....my reasons for sounding like a twat:

1) Didnt think to look at number
2) The pics r from different angles so i thought the lines/body decals were different...turns out that would be the opposite side of the car.

Im just gonna slink on annomously into the background now...

Re: New Racer

Good job Matt had some Image-Worx stickers to cover the damage on your front wing,


Andy had a scratch and its a good job Matt had another one for the other side when he had an argument with Adrian Fuller's capri 3 races later... another scratch, tough old nail is Andy's car.

Nice to see the Craigs back out in the thick of it too, father and son team with 2 silver x-packs.

Good luck to Nigel in his future races, just make sure he steers clear of the Fords

Re: New Racer

Gotta take pity on poor ol' Nige really he's about to sell his road car (yet another bmw) for £30K so that he can make a start on next year's car And I hear his sponsorship could be coming from Daddy and the family business

Re: New Racer

Mmmm 30k he could get a decent Escort for that and be up there with the Craigs, infact maybe even infront of them sometimes

Re: New Racer

I think he's scared of the escorts now hes seen em racing
