Some of you who have read my About Me on my homepage will know I am a part owner of a couple of Garages (repairs/servicing) in the High Peak, England. There both small village garages and there are 5 of us who own them.
One of the garages is also an MOT station and we often see some older cars in for test and I thought I would set up this blog so I could share them with you.
I will add pics when I get anything in of interest :)

I thought I would put this up for Andy Graydon to remind him of home. I know there are many woolly backs who miss him.
Well I got there, took me a while! A lot of you have done more, not least of all my team mate Brian Fairley who joined R2P just a month earlier than me in Jan 2007 and has competed in 708 events!
I am in a calmer place in my life now and I hope to step up my racing a little, so unfortunately you may see a bit more of me as you pass me by, however I might start chasing you with a little more determination from now on :)
I'm not much on words and all that, I don't do many blogs or chat much. I don't post a great deal, unless in response to the odd Ferrari fan boy :D But I just want to say I enjoy my time here at R2P largely due to the great community of sim racers.
So thanks to you all for either giving me a hard time or your patience (depending on how quick you are) to Tim and Todd for running a tight ship and putting up with my odd rant or two over the last 4 years.
Finally Thanks to my fellow Phoenicians at Team Phoenix, they are a great bunch from all corners of the globe and thanks to Andy Graydon who's a great bloke even though he comes from yorkshire, still we can't all be perfect, eh! :D
How do you get rid of the dark cockpit?
I have tried increasing the gamma through the ATI control panel but as soon as I load WTCC it just seems to ignore the desktop and is just undriveable unless I drive with the lights out.
Right this has happened to me twice now, both times driving rF3 and it's really annoying.
I go through Practice, Quali and Warm Up, then when it switches to Race I click on the race button to join the grid and a get placed in my pit box!!!!? WHY??
If I try to join down pit lane I'm DQd for going through a red light and certainly in the last race there was no red light?
Has this happened to anyone else? if so what do I do if it happens again.
I keep getting the USB Disconnect alarm.
How can I track down the offending device and then find out why it's doing it?
This is doing my head in!! and if I don't get this sorted out soon the PC is heading for a damn good thrashing!!!
I've just finished the GTC-Euro Barc
In the Series Info it says 2 mandatory pitstops are required, Which I did. But when I look at the laps of other drivers I can only see 1. Am I getting something wrong?
Also
Is it just me or do the Ignition and Starter switches have a life of their own. Is there some trick to using the damn things?
I can't get this to work and I am absolutely sure it's only something simple, can you help?
I have got Ati X1900XTX and Matrox TripleHead2Go displaying on 3 LCD monitors, so I can't use another monitor to display GTR2-PD, but I do have another PC and they are both connected to my Router.
I have had a workgroup set up between the 2 machines for awhile and regularly swap info etc between them.
But I can't get GTR2-PD to work on the second PC, it says Connecting at the top left and Scanning top centre.
Ok my subscription for Norton Internet Security and AntiVirus is due for renewal and I have been reading an awful lot of bad press about Norton.
I obviously need some kind of protection but I dont want something that is going to hog all my resources as Norton seems to do.
So what do you guys use?
Am I wrong about Norton?
