As my passenger said about you car Noel, "I don't know what I'm looking at but it's a really pretty engine."

I could say the same about your passenger Boz.

Our job as a club is to educate the driver. Yes he appears to have over stepped the boundary but if we crucify him we only serve to ostricize him and theres another loose cannon on the street to give us a bad name.

I dont know the driver but if he is willing to become a bit more involved I am sure he and we can all benefit from learning how to play with others in a safe enjoyable manner.

On another note. There is no crying at happy laps because somebody held you up. This is not Le mans or Bathurst.

Some of these people have never been on a track before, They become self absorbed in what they are doing and lose awareness of whats happenning around them. Experience is the only teacher and happy laps is the first step toward gaining experience. As I have always told you, Happy laps is not the end game it is the beginning.

I have already noted the track etiquitte of those who now have more than one happy laps under their belt has improved markedly so it is working.

It is the responsibility of the more experienced trackers to point out to the newcomers what they did wrong and how best to make it better next time. I believe we should do a post briefing as well as a pre briefing and air these issues on the spot while they are still fresh in our minds. None of us should be above criticism either. regardless of who you are if someone feels you were out of order it should be raised and dealt with so as to either prevent or give some understanding as to why who did what when. I dont want our club to be the first to be told dont come back so lets get it right. According to the raceway peeps we are in no fear of that happenning at this stage so lets keep it that way.

All in all another fantastic day as evident by the smiles and laughter over the meal.
