Loved todays track - wasn't too badly affected by the rain and dried up nicely.

I think we need to stick with these earlier starts.

Can I interest anyone in a Durango 210 (no not the Blingrango)? White shell, some gold bits, comes with a blinged up Spekky tx.

Call it a fiver posted?

Top day all round.

We are all getting better every meeting at running smoothly throughout the day, don't think we had any hiccups at all.

Earlier starts get the Thumbs up from me

Thanks to Gav for the 4wd Loan.

Wheel to wheel rubbing with Stu and i can only assume i ran over his wheels and it launched me skyward at a very rapid rate of knots

Stu probably did it on purpose, he cheats like that a lot !! Haha

Fantastic meeting yesterday guys. Driving standards seemed much better throughout and prompt and quick marshalling throughout the day, not to mention some excellent racing. The 4wd A final was great to watch, unlucky to Birdy with the breakage when I felt you had Sham twitching but the race for 2nd between Rick (who if he continues to find his thumbs again is gonna be a bloody tough apponent imo) and Donnelly was a great battle to the line!

On a personal note it was very much like applying for the job you desperately wanted then not turning up to the interview! Some good runs in qualifying then manage 1 lap of the A Final with problems! Oh well, that's racing I suppose? Shame though as I reckon it would have been very close between me and Gav in the final.

A all round great day's racing for all and if our meetings continue to run with the quality and smoothness of yesterday the club will go from strength to strength.

Actually the really exciting race was the 4wd B final - Only 2 seconds between Ewan at the front and Tommy in 3rd, with Lee and Tommy reeling in Ewan by 2 seconds a lap at the end. Just one more lap and it could have gone to any of them.
