Wow... it's been an eventful end of the week.

Thursday I drove to my friends house in Birmingham and stayed there overnight, was driving back home on friday with 2 of my friends from down there when, 5 miles after we set off (with 235 miles still to go), this happened:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v418/nukez/carwindow.jpg

The window just blew out, the car was starting to steam up inside, so I put the de-mister on, next thing I know there's a huge BANG right next to me, and the window wasn't there... I was doing 50mph at the time and it scared me s**tless! Nobody was hurt, Although I had a fair bit of glass on my arms and legs, but I was wearing a jumper so none went in me.

Luckily about 100 yards down the road there was a layby. We were in that layby for 4 hours, and spent nearly an hour and a half on the phone to my dad, insurance companies and RAC windows! A 5 hour trip back up home took 9 1/2 hours instead (we got home and went straight to the pub!).

I didn't have anything thrown at me, there was nobody around, and the way the glass shattered out it made it obvious that the de-mister blew the window out.

When the bloke from RAC Windows finally found us (took him a while and a fair few phone calls), he pulled the door apart to fit the new window, and also pulled out a bit of plastic and told me that's from the window mechanism, so 2 things could have happened.

1. The window blowing out took the mechanism with it
2. The mechanism was already broken which weakened the old window and the slight temparature difference on both sides blew it out.

Has anyone ever heard of this happening before? I'm a bit wary now when I put the demister on incase it happens again. Also which of the 2 above things would be the most likely/believable cause? as I'll have to say to Ford what happened.

[adet406]

slim chance someone may have tried to brake in the car hitting the window low in the left hand side this would weaken the structure of the glass harns when moving pressure of air flowing over the car instent brake down :eek:



good job u ok thats what counts and u didn t have a bigger crash

[laurat]

oh my Mr_x ... you ok?
I have never heard of that happening before ... I would have absolutely been petrified!
the only thing thats happened to me before regarding the drivers window was during the summer this year, trying to look cool with my shades on, music blaring and window half way down ... got home on the drive, pressed the button to put the window up and the clips in the bottom of the door keeping the glass up snapped and the glass actually fell down into the door ... that was scary enough but i think if it had happened the way it happened with you whilst driving at 50mph, you all would have heard my screams

Now you mention it, it could be possible, it was parked on a driveway outside a house in Birmingham for a night, but I didn't notice any damage to the glass on the morning (I notice small things very quickly!). I was quite lucky in the sense that I didn't panic, I just saw the layby instantly and stopped the car in there.

Yeah I'm ok, the other 2 people who were with me didn't get hit by any glass at all, as I said i was wearing a jumper so glass just landed on my clothes, was able to get out and brush myself off.

There's still bits of glass dropping out the door too, I might have to pull it apart and get the hoover in there. Or get Ford to do it when i get the window mechanism fixed :rolleyes:


The funny thing was, when I was on the phone to RAC Windows, after giving them my address/insurance details, saying what happened and telling them I was 5 miles outside Birmingham they said "can you drive the car home?" to which I replied "I just told you I live in County Durham, my home is well over 200 miles from where I am now, The car is unsafe to drive, what do you think my answer to that question will be?" to which I got the reply "oh, fair enough then."

silly people. :rolleyes:

Are most people going to be around when TG is on? Would be nice to have a running commentary like previous weeks. :)

Mr_X, sorry to hear about the car, glad everyone is alright though, scary when things like that happen.

In our old Corsa the windscreen shattered a couple of times on the motorway, luckily I wasn't in the car at the time, I would have been a little panicked!

I have to say I didn't really notice. However I did notice that he was "clean and tidy", which makes a change from some of the drivers they have on there.

[laurat]

ah yeah he was definitely clean and tidy ... he is only 22 afterall and is only wearing clothes which all my male friends wear, but I think he has definitely got a dark side which we have yet to see ... whether that be his 'pimp my rides' or his 'huge rims' ... I don't know!

Also Richard Hammond done a great job showing us exactly how hard it is to drive an F1 car ... it can't be done by just anyone and for this I was actually glued to the screen ... all the F1 drivers really do have a lot of hard work, hence their huge pay packet!

I phoned Ford to get it booked in to get the window mechanism fixed, and they're going to pick my car up and drop it off again from my house, tomorrow, free of charge, and the window mechanism should be repaired under warrenty too, and the bloke said "We'll have a good check over of it to make sure it doesn't happen again". :)

rsmall children will want a wii
but if you love games and want a next-gen console you have to buy either a 360 or ps3.
i have a ps3 and compared to my friends' 360 the graphics over all games on average are better.

i prefer british superbikes to f1 (but i been a big dc fan for years anyway) so i might get john reynolds book next. ive got murry walkers book as well but i aint touched it yet!

your not havin a good few weeks cos of ye car window and being ill man,
few years ago, i crashed my moped in2 a car, smashed the front up, scrathed the car, then the next day i was very ill for a week! the lady who i smashed in2 didnt belive me cos i said to her that i was so ill, i couldnt sort out the insurance paperwork!
laura, hav u joined any other forums? (stil hooked on that dc book, it must be that good since i dont read that much!!!) :)

Top gear was on at 9pm tonight Laura... Nevermind it doesn't matter anyway if you can watch the repeat on Wednesday. Worth doing it was one of the best of the series with the 24 hour race being covered. I narrowly missed getting on tv as I was just off camera in several shots!

Had to laugh at them being happy at beating the Boston Bowl car, that was Fiona's MG ZR that was withdrawn the week before (She ended up racing for another team.), it wasn't even in the same county never mind the qualifying session!

Actually what had happened was they had replaced her entry with another team and forgotten to change the timing screens, caused a lot of confusion at the track on the day too.

[mr_x]

Laura: top gear started at 9pm tonight, for some odd reason. And it's not on next week because of the snooker :(

yeah it's been a bad last few weeks... I've not been majorly ill, just been waking up every morning for the last 5 days feeling really really bad, didn't get much sleep at all between wednesday and saturday night. I've never been so bored of sneezing in my life! I've still been going to work though, just glad I've had the last 2 days to recover a bit more.

[Gracer]

I think top gear was on at 9pm due to sports personailty BBC 1, I saw the TG team alot at the 24hr as they interested in a team by our garage.

It would be good if they entered again as I think it would raise the profile of the race.

Off work today as i think i have the flu :( . Bored and feeling like pants I thought I would have a look through the old posts/within the forum. This is a similar question to one of those in the old threads

[kezbabybabe]

Hey Guys, catching up on an interesting couple of days on the forum.

My sig changed because I was uses the highlight feature for the dunlop yellow, as the yellow in the colours is too bright for you all. :p

It's been updated now to a fashionable girly pink and purple. :)

Thank you all for your concern. :rolleyes:

How's everyone been? All had good weekends?

Gracer: Christmas Party? Jason Plato and Richard Hammond, just because I could. :D

[heidi1]

Now the pink is a hot colour. just as bright as the yellow. good choice.;)

[1.9 TDI]

personally prefer yellow :cool:

[topgear1]

yellow is best for seat!!
pink best for a girl !!

[kezbabybabe]

Who knew a signatures colours could cause so much discussion! Thanks Heidi for the nice comments. :)

I'm with Rob I would love to have the yellow for Seat, but as I said it's too bright, which means I would then need to have orange, which wouldn't be right...

Maybe they'll change to a new yellow scheme for 2009 season...

Ooooooooooooooooo hi guys, am lost with this forum now - couldnt get on the past couple of nights for connections errors - strange!
as for my xmas party guest(s) - thats a tough question: if you're talking driver then it would have to be plato or schumacher and if you're talking any celebrity personality then it would either have to be rob collier (liam in coronation street) or Richard, Jeremy and James as a team!

I'm hoping to make this a big marketing thing in schools etc ...
if youwant any further info let me know cos if I blubber on anymore about itm I may get in trouble from Editor1 ;)

talking of books, i was surprised to read about dcs one when he was slagging ron dennis off for mika as the chosen driver. hard to belive in some races, david had to move over more times for mika then what was shown on tv.
i agree about what he said if he stayed at williams in 1997, he could of had a big chance to become champ instead of being tied down with team orders at mclearn.

Hey, How's everyone doing?

Seems like the website is working for a little while, so I thought I best post a new message in the Off topic forum.

If you click Members List from the toolbar and select the link for posts, you will see that Laura is top with 3,093.

[turk06]

whats going on all, anyone here at the moment, i am very bored. i was considereing reading through every page of tthis thread but i thought i might die if i tried that. if this thread is just for general chatter does anyone know if any mods occaisionally cast their eyes in this direction or are they only to keep people in line in the btcc forum????

[turk06]

no one her then?:(

Hey Turk,

I haven't seen any mods or eds on the off topic, so I'd say they watch but don't act? We seem able to keep ourselves under control.

I think with the website issues people haven't been as active as previously.

[ted]

i think every1 on this topic has been behaving themselfs or it could be the fact that ed1 cant be bothered to read all the pages lol

[turk06]

when you say we can control ourselves i hade to have a little snigger to myself but it was just my childish mind being silly

[topgear1]

dont think it really matters what is in this section, its basically the general gossip.Iwould be bothered abt this if was editor

[turk06]

does that mean we can misbehave and generally cause havoc;)

sounds like a plan of action to me:D

Remember what happened to Sonofzelda/Cassandra :rolleyes: And speaking of Sonofzelda/Cassandra... he asked me to pass on Christmas greetings to the forum.

Rob,

Have you been on Batracer lately??

Kez

[1.9 TDI]

Rob,

Have you been on Batracer lately??

Kez

No, it has some error screen whenever i go on the site. And now i'm being sacked according to my email...

[kezbabybabe]

Yeah I know, the reason being that you haven't been on for two weeks...

Do you want me to post a message on your behalf?

Probably should've shared email addresses with your team mates...

[1.9 TDI]

Do you want me to post a message on your behalf?

thanks, but if i can't get on there, there is no point in saving my place on the team.

[kezbabybabe]

What Web browser are you using?

[1.9 TDI]

What Web browser are you using?

Just Intenet Explorer V6

[kezbabybabe]

Hi Rob,

The latest version of Internet Explorer is version 7, so maybe an upgrade is in order?

Or use Firefox, which lets you add different modules.

Both of these seem to work okay with Batracer.

It's yonks since SoZ got banned - he was warned about general silliness, then criticized the mods, so he got banned. He came back as Cassandra, but got himself banned again for being irrelevant and silly. Don't worry though, if you get too silly I'm sure the mods will warn you. Personally, I like a bit of silliness sometimes.:D

[laurat]

everybody likes a bit of silliness, but certain people go that little bit too far - cassandra was fine though me thinks! And as he/she has sent xmas greetings to us all, i think i speak for everybody when i say 'HAPPY XMAS CASSANDRA!'

Haven't been on here for a few nights now, missed you all - first of all there was error connections coming up all the time and secondly I bought an IMAC the other day so been trying to get that set up etc ... it's all go go go!

[turk06]

[turk06]

i reckon i probably have seen every episode of top gear and this is well hard, in fairness to myself though i usuallly have had a few beers by the time it comes on on a sunday night

[laurat]

i'm getting excited for my three hours of top gear presenters - but not for my last day at work tomorrow :(

[turk06]

Well of course you're right, but you wouldn't be able to experience the fights between him and Neal all season...
