Having spent the day at Goodwood, and what a great day it was, good weather and great company, driving today in our little group, Simon, Justins mate, Justins mental Sl63, not only sounding fabulous, but soooo quick, Alx and his CL55, currently partially striped, for proposed future mods, going to be a future monster, and enjoying his time there, Mika and his new Porsche,(and his two mates, and his Son who I have met before), Mika as enthusiastic as always, great to spend a little time with you, and Seans mate Nick is his speedy Porsche Spider), Sean and his Porsche RS, getting faster all the time, car sounded fantastic on the back straight as you opened it up, and such great company as you are always.
We were also joined, by Gaz1 who had cruised down enjoying the sunshine in his SLK55AMG, Simon M, who is shortly to depart these shores, (big loss), borrowing the wifes car to come down and join us, good to see you again mate, Marty, my buddy, put himself out big time to come down to see us all, and again great to see you as well mate, your new car and that dodgy electric tow bar, LOL, my god, a H&S claim waiting to happen, it's a while between our meet ups, and the SL55 guy I recall from Vmax day we had, great looking car, marvellous colour, and also good company, my apoligies name has gone from me at this time (getting old), but great talking with you.
Finally and on a more selfish note, Paul, (Savman of Eurocharged UK), who not only spent his valuable time to come down today, 1 to catch up with a few guys today, 2. to check and finite my recent mapping, it was good of you to come down today. You then went right beyond the call of duty with your onsite repairs to my car, was not expected, thought my day was shot at 11AM, but no, not only under my car, but robbing bits off your own car, mate, big thanks, so very much appreciated.
All in all, great company, great day out.
on a foot note: as departing with Sean, Simon and Justin, Simon flashing his lights at me, pulled over in GW entrance, another bit of rear underside trim hanging off, my bloody car is falling to bits!!LOL, unclipped it for local MBs later attention Monday/tuesday, but noted water dripping from same rear wheel arch, thought another leak from ice box set up, worry about that later, lets just get home!, half mile up the road, thought, you had just driven through the puddles in the Goodwood exit tunnel, silly sod!
. Got home no leak, no problem. Lastly, to say, my car in it's time, has had 2 DMS maps, 1 west tunning map which I always liked, then had 2 early Jerry maps, which car run powerfully but I was not totally 100% with, but my latest EC UK mapping, is awesome, car is flying, as fast as I have ever had it, joy to drive.
Thanks to all that kept me company today, hope all got home safely, a really enjoyable day, I look forward to seeing you all shortly.
albeit, your car was looking and sounding very mean!, raised some heads in the pit parking area when you started it up, to leave us.
