Mickly Posted September 29, 2022 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mississippi Bullfrog Posted September 29, 2022 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickly Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has undergone some procedures and is still in a medical induced coma! Hopefully he pulls through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
