This week we return to Old Bar Raceway, where the racing was pretty close in all classes, around the 1.5 laps between racers...
We introduce a new class and discuss the usually touchy topic of car regulations...!!! The car regulations have come around due to over several months randomly car regulations and loud discussions prevailed, such as gearing issue last month, the month before was about anglewinder, sidewinder and inline motors.
Well what a day of racing, myself was just off the pace, being distracted with chronic pain from spinal degeneration doesn't make things easier, as I say what doesn't hurt me or kill me only makes me grumpier
, we had a full turn out today which was great, though Jeffery was a few hours late.
This week Johnno performed the best 'doing a Lindsay' manoeuvre, was very subtle touch on Charlie
, we also saw quite an increase in 'Johnno's Coming through' along with quite a few cars sitting on top of other cars as well.
This week we had a substantial amount of cars deslotting into the other lane, more than usual, even coming down the straight for some reason cars were deslotting into the other lane, don't know why this happened this week.
Aggressive Joe made a late appearance then kind of disappeared even during the Revoslot race. Joe has been doing real great the past few months and like Johnno, he is going great than he pushes that bit too hard and deslots, then gets angry and blows it more, usually at least another three deslots in a row. The biggest issue, besides deslotting, is racers having the controller trigger at full blast and when their cars are reslotted they take off and deslot once again, for novices, don't hold the trigger full while your car is being reslotted.
The Leaderboards and Podiums were again obtained by a mix of four racers, with Johnno, coming fourth in quite a few events, congratulations to everyone on your Leaderboard and Podium wins and great racing.
As is natural for myself, I performed a couple of 'coming through' deslots, lifting one car on top of my Revoslot LMP and carrying the other car on my roof for a bit, Paul got in on the action this week more than usual, driving on trying to barge his way through the deslotted cars, with success. We also saw quite a few 'gentleman racer' moves where one racer slowed up so not to ram at full speed into a deslotted car.
Johnno took the advantage to run his backup Ninco Porsche Cup car and OMG it was bloody noisier than all of Paul's cars combined, I had suspected it was the pinion being loose on the motor shaft and also having some real bad manufacturing faults with the teeth on the pinion, not having a spare nor knowing if I could use a normal pinion with the angle crown, I didn't replace it until I ran it, when aske di mentioned the pinion being loose on the shaft and bad teeth, Paul and Charlie to the rescue with triage and Charlie providing a second hand angle pinion, thanks guys for the triage and part.
Johnno's Trans-Am Camaro still played games this week, wanting to just run ahead instead of taking the corners... slow or fast they both just didn't want' to play
This week saw Johnno again getting his Revoslot Dodge Viper and Marcus cars out and boy didn't they go good and the Toyota GT1 also misbehaved, also let down by the nut behind the controller. We saw Paul taking quite a few lap records as well in his heats, this week for some reason saw Paul having a lot more deslots than is usual for him, he even had one of his cars break the guide post.
The new Can-Am race saw new lap records set by quite a few people with Lindsay taking quite a few in a row.
Without further jibbering on, here are the Leaderboard and Podium Results for racing at Wed 23rd June, 2021 at Old Bar Raceway. Thank you Charlie for hosting us and the T&C's.
