Pembrey Race Preparation
With just a week to go, the Bastards have been stirred into lethargic action for this year’s second outing of the C1 Challenge at Pembrey Circuit in South Wales.
The drivers for this 5 hour race are Mat Lowe, Mark Cox and Humphrey Bucknell. This week they have been WhatsApping their weight back and forth, the talk of diet or ‘bulking up’ has been high on the agenda. It seems that Bucknell is quite lighter than the matched pair of Lowe and Cox, which may mean more lead ballast needs to be added.
The long range weather forecast looks promising and the timetable together with final instructions have been published for next weekend. Unfortunately drivers Lewis, Patterson and Martin will not be a Pembrey next weekend. Lewis is hunting and diving U-Boats in the English Channel, Patterson will be attending to his greenhouse petunias and Martin is confined to crèche duties.
