for me, its 7-1 to crash, so surely 1-7 to make it home unscathed?? I'm not a betting man, i dont know how the maths work :D

Its dry, so there shouldnt be toooooo much carnage, but Druids always springs a surprise.




Andy - the R400 has had a taste for the armco, will it fancy another bite?? Anywhere involving armco 5-1

Robin - He's sensible and well informed, but EGOR has a score to settle with bikeR, so will the car get carried away? spin at lodge 10-1

Me - not my car, so should be taking it easy, but i've been out of cars for a while so i'm out of practise, plus there is always the toe link risk. Island bend 7-1

Stu - hasnt got a place yet, but may try to make up for lost time when he does get out on track. Its a VX, so he should hit the armco nose first 12-1

Pete - OP newbie, the car is relatively new to him, and the car is set up to favour a lunatic. Rear ender in druids 1-5






let betting commence :damnfunny

Cheers Robin. I rang OP and they don't have a mobile tyre chap, so I think I'll stop being such a pikey and buy some new ones... (exits to tyre shop.)
