Had a nice time on Saturday, not so good on Sunday with the Atom. Lost confidence on the car when I made a huge flat spot on the front right tire when locking the wheels at maison blanche, vibration was so awful I couldn't get confidence back the rest of the day. Played a bit with tire pressures to attenuate these vibrations on the Sunday and in the end overheated the fronts which totally finished killing those. Was happy to see some nice and quick VX220's too, definitely not the same in french clubs !

alanoo which atom was yours? The one with the wing? Home after a bit of a mare with the travelodge last night. Ended up spilling my kebab all over chris's bed then buggering off to a different travelodge as our rooms were water damaged. Got to the new hotel and ended up decorating the bathroom with really really cheap horrible red wine. Got some on the bed as well but luckily it wasn't my room so dean and darron were left to sort it. Good weekend and the car ran really well, needs some money throwing at it now though. Bit sh*t not being able to get taxis or beer in the hotel after 12. Need to sort out my videos. Had a good session out with 5oc.

Happy to say the rebuilt engine ran completely dry, no steamy moments, water temp remained normal. Also did a fuel low level check, pitted at first sign of low fuel and then refilled up with 33.5L.

Fantastic weekend away. I really do enjoy the Bugatti. But what makes the weekend so enjoyable is the company. Got some vid which I will forward on to Wrightstuff if he's doing another video. If we go again I'm sure we can do a Le Mans Stylee rolling start of all the VX's up the pit straight - pretty please

A photo for you of Mrs Daft who was directing the ferry loading at Dieppe - what a fiassco!!

Yes it was a bizarre way to top off a fab weekend. She was quite, quite mad. Either that or she owns a Lotus!
No video this year Chris, feel free to post your clips up

Technicoloured yawn ? That wine looked proper ropey just looking at the container!
Thanks for leaving my room smelling like a farting competition held in a kebab shop
