I attended the CART race at the Rockingham Motor Speedway recently and I must say, those champ cars are sensational! Not only are they the loudest form of motorsport I’ve ever attended (although apparently Santa Pod drag cars are louder), they travel at stupendous speeds.

The set up at Rockingham made for a couple of disappointments, though, with the leaderboard tower not working and the PA drowned out after the cars got going (although I’m not sure they could have done much about that), not to mention the short race due to the weeping track.

However, I’m sure they’ll sort out everything by the time the CART series arrives here next year – I’ll definately be going!

I felt a tinge of sadness when I found out that Intel are to scrap the Rex organiser at the end of the month. I own one of the more ancient models, but even so, while I made use of it I found it had everything I needed packed into the size of a credit card.

Of course, having moved on to a cutting edge Palm M505 PDA, courtesy of a very generous birthday present, my Rex has been put to one side now. Still, it was a good idea and deserved to be more of a success than it was. A bit like Urban Fetch. Sigh.

It’s taken me ages to get round to doing this and I haven’t managed to include every site I’ve done over the last three years, but a small selection have finally made it onto the obligatory Portfolio section of the site.

Anyone who knows me personally should take a look, if you will, and hark back to the days when the Clyde One site had actually had some design values! Then saunter down memory lane to the infamous site-in-four-days that was the SRH corporate homepage.

Wow – you wouldn’t think I’d worked to ten o’clock four nights in a row to complete that one in record time, would you!?
