Good work Mike, your spin got on telly and a mention to boot! Now keep it pointing in the right direction Just been watching Race and Rally UK (in case anyone hadn't guessed yet) and I was very impressed with the racing and the coverage. Commentary did it justice too, very well informed. Hopefully joining you on track soon (well, soon-ish), new engine just complete and the car has transformed from a body with two front chassis legs sticking out it to something which resembles a whole car again Cheers Baz

Caught 3/4 of the repeat at 2pm this afternoon, missed the Legends! Yet to see your moment Mike, got it set to record on another repeat, tomorrow night at 10.30 rings a bell somehow !

Can anyone tell me when the Formula Ford first outing is to be televised? Saw the Legends, XR2s etc and thought the action was brilliant. The onboard cameras certainly give a great birds eye view. Legends were certainly the most entertaining.

FFord is to be shown on the next edition of Race & Rally along with some English Championships. It'll first be shown on Friday if things continue the way they've been going.

I don't believe it - I've managed to miss the programme entirely! Meant to get up to watch today's repeat but slept in and checking Digiguide that was the last repeat... C5 don't have Race and Rally on their listings at all anywhere so I think I'm stuffed. Anyone tape it by any chance?

Have to confess that I am getting a bit confused, but is it not the case that Channel 5 are yet to screen the first programmes so you'll be able to catch them there Mike?
Having said that, I have looked at the AMG website and they say May 16th for the "opening" SMRC event. However, when I look at the Channel 5 website (www.five.tv/tvguide/ ) for the 16th there is nothing that looks like the correct programme!

Yup, Norm - C5 haven't been showing Race & Rally at all as far as I can see... which is strange. Someone needs to tell AMG, lol. I'll buy the DVD direct from AMG if I have to, not missing my moment of fame.

Mike, five seem to be going through one of their phases of not showing R&R. They will probably catch up with several programmes in quick succession at some point - they've done it before!

Thanks Ian! I'll keep an ear to the ground.

Sounds like Ian is correct. I sent AMG the following email, with their reply below.
"Quick query - your website shows the "Scottish Motor Racing" as being screened on Channel 5 on Wed 16th May, but I can see no mention of this on Channel 5's own listings. I am particularly interested in the screenings of the Scottish Motor Racing - is this to be screened on Channel 5 in the near future?"
AMG Response ========== "Hi- we are looking into this at the moment- however it seems that american football/baseball has taken priority and Race & Rally will return in a few weeks time. We'll update our site as soon as we know anything more." So, fingers crossed that us Motors-TV-less people will still get the chance to see Mike's hairpin excursion......

You just see the recovery, not the actual spin, and it's an inset image on the screen too.
