Off to Barcelona - See You Next Week!

[Paul Jeffrey]

Time to go on my travels again this weekend for the final round of the SRO E-Sport GT Series.. see you all next week.

As is the case with these overseas travels, I'm going to be a little bit remote from the world of sim racing for a few days as we cover the final round of the SRO E-Sport GT Series this Saturday 28th September (catch the live stream HERE). As such, expect news posting on the front page to slow down over the coming weekend, but normal service will be resumed on Monday!

An action packed and exciting weekend ahead, see you all on the other side!

You drive on the wrong side!

 

[UnixRoot]

Don't text and drive, Paul. Especially not while driving on the wrong side.

What mod is that? Barcelona Canyon?

If you don't sing this song on Arrival then you're dead inside

 

[Alex Townsend]

Have a great time Paul. Last time I went to Circuit de Catalunya it was like a party at the circuit for the F1. Hope it's a similar vibe for you all for the Blancpain. Envious as always and looking forward to your coverage of the final.

 

[Craig Dunkley]

Hey guys, have a great time and stay save

 

[Terry Rock]

Enjoy!

[Chris Haye]

Man, you've done one drive around the ring and now you're filming the daily commute

 

[G_B]

No SIMHUB HUD ? to follow you on my Google Maps

If you have time, you have fans on the roads of France.

P. JEFFREY in travel

 

[Paul Jeffrey]

lol thanks guys!

You sir, are correct!

We fairly recently bought a little Mini Cooper S convertible for some fun (168bhp worth of fun!) and I'm absolutely loving it, an awesome little beast. The photo in question was actually taken during a little road trip we took when we first bought it last month, and the silver car in front is my folks, who also bought one at the same time! lol. Great little car, lousy of fuel, but fun as it comes especially with the roof down!

Here's another shot of the car from the outside:

Enjoy the travel and the beautiful city of Barcelona.
If you have time, go to the 'turo de la Rovira' and you'll see the best views of the city. Be careful with the parking!

Time. Lol. I I think we will be viewing the wonderful city from the window of a van, to and from the circuit unfortunately! Hectic schedule this weekend and fly home on Sunday afternoon pretty much straight after we go off air.. so likely to miss the goodness of the city annoyingly

I've bought an additional 10 annual leave days from work in anticipation of next season though, so won't be getting caught out again like this!!!

Bummed I couldn't make Barcelona. Had a great time at Spa and Nurbs. Better luck next year!

 

[Michel Bélisle]

@Paul Jeffrey Are you really drive down there?
Cross to France and drive all the way down to Barcelona?

Yep, great little cars. I have an '04 R53 purchased off a family friend 12 years ago with 22k on the clock. She's pushing 150k now and still going strong. Only vehicle I've ever owned that can put a smile on my face every time I drive it, no matter how I'm feeling beforehand. Pretty easy to work on as well, I've done all my own service since day one. Enjoy your new (to you) adult go-cart!

Here's a shot of mine

Have a nice one there Paul! Wish I were there too, Nurbs was awsome fun. Hope you guys have fun in Barcelona too although there"s no forest road to be tamed
Cheers
