Ah ok, Toyos eh, it was just they didnt get on too well with them, I think Robbie called them S hite which is why his times were bad but you sort of knocked that thoery on the head.,
Toyos were far from **** there Rob, especially when on a flying lap, which other tyre will warm up that quick. John ran Dunlops and after 6 laps they were perfect. Same old story!!
The track is so demanding on the brakes as it's a flat out thrash to 5th then slow down to a 2nd gear corner, on every corner!!
Think they didnt like an Evo spoiling there skyline gathering and moving out the way issue was sad as you think a 1000bhp motor would crush a lower pwred one! Nice one barrie doing us proud!!!!!:smthumbup
i was talking to barrie for just a few seconds at scrutiny before the time attack and he seemed like a nice guy, (i have the white and red civic) i dont think he pulled across on to the racing line on purpose but he did get in the way, prob did'nt see him coming
some of you were saying how would he know where to be on the track as every car has a different line but there is only one line true that bend and its on the right, as i said i dont think he ment to do it, prob just not used to the track!
when brian came on here he said congrats on the times(as they were very good for the first event)and that he would hope that barrie did'nt do it on purpose and then all the name calling started
robs car is not a 1000hp its 720hp for time attack, it used to run big power but kept breaking shafts all the time
just so you have a reference the second lap on the vid is his cool down lap and hes not pushing,heres a clip from the last day where you can see the line he would normally take!
i'm not having a go at any one, i'm just trying to explain that what happened was an accident but it was still up to barrie to make sure he was out of the way!
be very wary of this car and company entered club class as under the title of privateer but ended up employing a mechanic/losing 300kgs in race trim having a 1100kgs car 653bhp engine when well blantantly had a pro car , aless cheating the rule book all funds coming from the company no less which in my rule book is cheating lying and unacceptable typical car trader i import i take the mick can u trust someone who takes ÂŁ1500 a car profit

I normally keep things very professional but im not tolorating comments like that
What a load of bull **** steve - how dare you , what ever have i done to you to deserve comments like that ? In my eyes your a spineless W**ker mate if you have to sit in front of your computer saying sh*it like this and cant confront me face to face when i spent plenty of time in the same garage as you
another jealous one ,another one who isnt fast enough , another one who barely knows me ,another one who doesnt know where my money comes from ,another one who has no idea what money i make , another one who thinks i employ people? , another who thinks i earn too much money and is a lier- your jealous and rude mate and have a massive chip on your shoulder by the looks of things

An attitude like that suggests why you have moved on from time attack. What your basically saying is, you cant win, so everyone else must be cheating.
Having actually been to DCY, and seen where they do there own work, and how they do it, its pretty much like me, so i guess i am cheating too. All funds for my car come from my company, but thats because its where i make my living, am i cheating because the funds come from my company.

steve you have just made youself look like a right ****, how barrie earns & pays for his car is nothing to do with you, everybody who runs there own business does it to make money we dont run charitys, to be honest barrie does know his car is above the spec of club class but he felt at the begining of the year his driving was not up to pro class but over the year he has learnt a lot and next year he will be moved class as is quite a few others will be so 2009 time attack should be a lot more competative in the new class which is being introduced.
barrie and the dcy crew are good group of guys but coming on here and slagging them off in this way is way out of order in my opinion get to know them first before making yourself look like a right ****.

Our company pays me, so I am cheating ?
ffs this kind of stupid thinking really does my head in. DCY are car importers, not a tuning garage. As you are well aware Steve it cost big money to race no matter what level and fair play to Barrie for investing so much time and effort into his car, entering TA and giving it flat out action. Who cares if he make's x amount, thats his buissnes not your's, mine or anyone elses
Your post stinks of sour grapes and as Barrie pointed out jealousy.:smthumbdo
