Not been too well the last few days. However, the Fury is now fixed up for its next outing. However, first of all here’s a shot of the last Brands races courtesy of Dave Hackett who as is often the case has produced some great photos of the RGB meeting.

Firstly the Fury. Adrian came over at the weekend and in between glimpsing at the GP and England’s dismal performance in the footie (the latter not being a great interest of mine, but Anthea’s from Liverpool so it’s in her genes) we started sorting out the Fury. Adrian set to sorting out the sidepod which was battered against the chassis side-impact protection and I started getting at the chassis.
Well, I suppose it couldn’t last. After ignoring the Fury all season it finally had a bad race.
Last weekend we went down to Brands Hatch, again, for a two day, two race, weekend. What’s more, our race on the Sunday was quite early so I was hoping to get home to get on with the J15. I should know not to think like that…
Last weekend was another race meeting, this time at Brands Hatch. (As usual, the Indy circuit. I’ve still never even walked around the GP circuit. One day…)
So, I got the Fury dusted down, I even spent a while doing a nut and bolt check, before going to Brands on Thursday evening. The weather forecast was, for a change, actually quite good so hopefully I wouldn’t be spending the weekend in a confusion about whether to change the wheels, adjust the ARBs, and so on.
By the way, before you complain, my apologies for the lack of video/photos here. I bought a new video recorder (one of these) and the camera is rubbish, generating a truly gruesome vertical vibration. With luck someone will have taken some photos and I can decorate this post later.
This year doesn’t seem to have been exactly peaceful on track, does it? Especially considering the catalyst debâcle that’s still rumbling on underneath RGB. That lost me the first two races of the season and it all looked as though I was going to lose another one this weekend.
