    Norman Speaks
    sexy monster.. Norman has asked me to inform you of a few things... So here he goes....

  • 'I would like to thank every one for the tankard which was given to me at the presentation night. It was a big surprise and it was very much appreciated. I hope you enjoyed the night as much as I did.

  • On another note I have made a boo boo in my chairman's notes and you will be thinking what another.. I will say yes. If you want to come on the committee, you have to put your name forward and signed by another member of the club, not a committee member.. How's that.

  • Thanks to every one for the get well soon wishes for Angela, she is still in hospital and is the same.'

    I would like to add my best wishes to Angela for a speedy recovery...

    Great night in Morecambe
    Thanks a lot, Im well chuffed! Everyone seemed well behaved, the trophies were dished out, the raffle was drawn. The booze flowed. Then the fun stared.. Loads of photos went up this morning at 3AM, they all now have comments on them.. I did warn you to dress smartly, so I have taken no prisoners.

    I was left speechless after a collection was made by those there for 'all my hard work and effort running this site' You were very scatty with your money raising over £110 for the Charity of SnOrK... Thank you all, I usually get agro from some people so it makes it all worthwhile with your support, also the loud cheer I received too... So thanks again, too even those who spared their 1ps and 2ps.. Well there was booze to buy..

    On a VERY SAD NOTE I must inform you, that there was a fatal accident at Incarace Children in Need in Birmingham. The Incarace website states:
    Mark Clay

    We are extremely sad to announce that Mark Clay passed away on the morning of Saturday 20 November 2004.

    Everyone associated with short circuit motor racing will be deeply saddened and on behalf of everyone at INCARACE we wish to pass on our sincere condolences to Mark's family and friends at this very difficult time.

  • I would like to pass on our condolences too to Marks family and friends.

    Points n Results up now!!
    Confirmed Champion Points Table Thanks to Val, who sent me the points and results from our last meeting last month. It shows that Jimbobs victory in the ministox was not as close as we thought it might have been.. That said I'm sure we are going to have more fun next season in the Ministox with close racing and more lads and lasses getting faster. The results from the meeting are under the report... A big well done to Mad Mart who won both heats and Final in the Super Bangers. The results also include the F2 results too, which shows that former Warton Unlimited Mini Champion Steve Smith (# 299) got a second in the final, well done laddie.

That was anoher great day at Warton, a brill DD at the end plenty of hard hitting from the bangers and action again in every other class, Inc. a full roll in the F2's. First 101 photos up NOW.. About the same to go up tomorrow..

    Life in a trannie
    Is it back ?? You all remember the Transit from Team Hillbilly at the Championship meeting... Well I have heard that its coming back to race tomorrow. I reckon its going to be a good meeting with only three points between # 16 Posh Hall and # 101 Jimbob Hayhurst in the Ministox Championship.. No doubt there will be more Bad Newz TNT scrapping and more action in the bangers. The F2s are back too, always good for a crash or too, as are the Super Bangers and Stock Cars and it looks like it might NOT be too damp either. So all in all its building up to a great last meeting of the season..
    Oh and I got more wartononline.com stickers to give out tomorrow...

    EPVIDEOS will have a WARTON Crash Mainia for sale in Track Shop. It features hits and wrecks from 1994 onwards!! Thats long before my time at Warton.. !!

    Will folks never learn ??
    lol After reading last night's chat room transcript.. I discovered that a certain person was letting others use their name and passwords to access the Chat Room... Because of this I have had to change the room password again, PLEASE DO NOT LET ANYONE ELSE KNOW THE PASSWORD OR USE YOUR NICKNAME TO ENTER THE ROOM. I have banned people for similar indiscretions in the past and therefore have no qualms about doing it to this person now.. We have had zero problems in the chat room since the passwords have been introduced, but rules is rules and I'm putting my foot down. If you do not receive the NEW room password by 7:30 tonight then e-mail me and I will send it to you.. (note all of my saved e-mail addresses were lost after the PC broke earlier this month).

    19 - 10 - 04
    Points and results up now!!
    Its going to take a while, time to play with his mecchano set though .. The points and results are updated, results in the report (well bottom of page). Thanks to Val for sending them to me.
    Norman has been to see # 144 (TNT) Dave, who hurt his ankle in the head on with David Eccles in the 10 on 10. It could take around 18 months to get back to normal. I wish him well for a speedier recovery..

    17 - 10 - 04
    Report going up
    222 in the air I have started the report, its up to the Grand Nationals so far.. More to come. I'm still waiting for the results and points update from Val, I assume she is having PC problems, seeing as almost everyone I know of has had breakdowns and internet provider problems recently.


    12 - 10 - 04

    I went to see Paul Woods yesterday (Invaders) and he told me they had a great time in Ireland two weeks back and a good time at the PRE68 last weekend... It seems that the Invaders will also be returning to Warton for the next meeting with some chunky cars, well it is the time for Unlimited Bangers..
    IMPORTANT I know of folks who are looking for good quality Ministox for the START of next season, so if yours, or someone you know, is not going to be used after next meeting please e-mail me the details and I will pass it on...

    My PC monster.. It worked for three days... JUST After a great deal of resetting and reloading stuff.. Things are almost back to normal. There is an interesting poll in the forum, well interesting to me as I redesign the website.. VOTE HERE
    ALL photos are up from Sunday... Including a shameful one for a certain person... No comments as yet, they will be up later tonight...
    The Chat Room had 11 people in it last night, all talking sense... I need to know who wants to be sent the password when it changes... So e-mail me with CHATROOM PASSWORD as the subject and your real name and chat room nick name in the e-mail. It seems to be getting more and more popular, we had TNT and Bad Newz lads in and not a bad word said to each other..
    All previous comments have been moved to the archive section..
