Mickly Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 Stepson works for a BSB sponsor, I’ve asked in the past if he could get any tickets, his response has always been that the Management always gets that stuff & the workshop staff never get a look in …. However he’s just told me he’s been given 2 Premium Paddock passes for this weekend at Donnington & he’s not bothered so he’s giving them to me I am absolutely stoked at the thought - although I can only go on Sunday & it will probably piss down. 9 Quote
Mississippi Bullfrog Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 I hope you enjoy it. I get free entry to everything at Oulton Park but I confess that didn't bother going to the superbikes last weekend. Quote
Mickly Posted October 3, 2022 Author Posted October 3, 2022 A great day, however the accident involving Chrissie Rouse in the second race has really saddened me. These things happen in racing & the only way to prevent these incidents is to ban racing entirely, which I can’t advocate. What makes this more of a personal thing is that although I have never met him, I listened avidly to his ( & Dom Herbertsons’) Chasin’ the Racin’ podcast throughout the lock down while sat in my garage & it really helped me escape from the outside world. He seems a genuinely nice guy & I wish him a successful recovery irrespective of the time it takes. 5 Quote

He has undergone some procedures and is still in a medical induced coma! Hopefully he pulls through Quote
