Great nights racing as always.

Not surprisingly Ben was hugely chuffed with his trophies. Think he would have gone to sleep with them if he could:-) Thanks.

As for the night itself, I actually made some decent progress with the Rango. Got some laps done this week, learnt a lot and starting to get tge hang of it. Definately a different driving style needed when compated to how my B44 was set up. Think the brand new foams are starting to settle in.

Had a very good little battle with the Callum, you had soom good speed there fella!

Final was brought to an early end when I ended up 3 wheel drive. Cvd came undone. Third one in two weeks. I blame the guy who built it!!!

Ben drove great again, he's taken to the b44 really well. Might be imagining things, but thought in a couple of heats and again in the final it wasn't counting his last lap. Any ideas whether this is a conmon'ish problem?

I treated him to a X20 8.5 turn motor, he's had for a while now decent racing ability but his previous system was lacking in speed

[Andy-j.smith6]

Definitely not lacking in speed any more!

Rango looking really good mate.
Congrats to your Ben, it's great to see kids faces when they win trophys. It is such a treat for them.
Callum is becoming a really really good racer and I am sure he will get his first place championship trophy soon.
I would say I enjoyed watching the final but that would be lieing. What a Muppet I am, breaking car in warm up is not a pleasant experience, still only 2nd breakage in a year. The bmax is solid.
Rebuilt diff over weekend and hopefully can get the shock parts order on Monday.

Thanks a lot for the positive comments, it really does mean a lot,

as for the andy and the rango, once them tyres have bedded in and the reliability sorts itself out you'll be the one with speed,

as for matt, unlucky you raced really well on Friday and really didn't deserve that.

last of all well done to my dad, getting 4th with the xray on new tyres.

Callum

You have earned the positive comments you get mate.

I think Lee is only going to get quicker with that xray for sure. I am going to have to really up my game.
There is some close racing going on at the moment, a bad night will drop you too the c final I reckon, a good night gets you the a, there is about 10 drivers in that bracket I reckon. Which is very good for the racing.
Game on!!!
