Booked in with Focus events with all my mates(ten of us Donnington) booked on line in fast group. We all turn up and register, all my mates are in the fast group. I'm in intermediate, so brought it to Barrys' attention sorry mate come back later I've got all these guys to sort out I may change you later. "fobbed off" got back to the garage and the current wife says so why aren't you in the fast group you wuss? Told her about Barry. Thats it red rag to the bull, give me your your ticket I'll go and see him. Came back sorted. She'd pushed in, told Barry that my husband can do any track he wishes but when he's with his mates he wants to dice with them not hold their fucking hands. So moral of the story take the wife. She's now team manager. But the barks worse than the bite!!
Or, take a hi-viz vest with INSTRUCTOR printed on it. Then go out in whatever group you want without even paying :biggrin:
Not far off some young lad with WD40 on his bike called Johnathon Railton kept slowing me up. I had to have a word with his dad!!
Sounds like standard FE. Could give a toss about the customer. Sounds like "Barry" learnt his engagement skills from Darrl Healey who owns the outfit. Potentially the rudest most aragant individual I have ever had the misfortune to come across. I think he actually takes having no people skills as a badge of honour.
er…daryl healey self made millionaire GSE racing…………..or do you really mean Kevin Healey owner of FE…………….and whilst we are talking about FE and in particular Barry, i have always found him to be accommodating happy helpful both in the UK and abroad…...
Thanks for picking me up on that. Clearly I meant Kevin Healey.so major apologies to Daryl if he happens to be looking on this forum.
