[Graham]

 Good Morning,

Many thanks again to Paul at Mountain View and his co- host Steve Hills (Truspeed Controllers) for their Round on the home Policar track. The last two Rounds are in the East of England at Connington Park & Roughwood and are featured on the forum "show us your tracks" section, both are routed wood tracks one is referred to as being more technical than the other.

Pitlane Review (Round 6)
Modern Endurance 24HRS
This Class ran more or less to form,  the leaders extending their lead. Savage BMW V12 LMP again miles ahead of the field, with Roadrunners Mercedes CLK and Team Tatters AMG keeping their positions.

Classic Le Mans
Mountain View's Ferrari 250GTO had the advantage on its home turf, and again is way ahead of the rest. There is a more closely balanced wrangle developing in the later Rounds between the AC Cobra of Bangers Racing and RoadRunners Aston Martin DBR1. I do believe that after the last minute change in the chassis for the AM, the car seems to have settled down and now looking more competitive against it's rivals, Having said that Paul's comment that the motor is beginning to smell is not good news, and will worry the Team owner (me) somewhat as the motor was new when fitted 

Daytona
Kind of a similar story hear with the BMW 320i again putting in a good round. Green Star Racing's De Tomaso again on the podium in 2nd place, and certainly seemed to have improved on the Policar tracks. Courtney Sport's Camaro a good run in 3rd. Another disappointing run for Ruscillo Racing's BMW M1 on the Policar tracks, perhaps it will run better on the last two wood Rounds, seems to have struggled for grip on the plastic tracks.

InterSeries
The Ferrari 512M of Savage GT having a great time on the Policar tracks with another win, which I think surprised the Team owner and me (after the change of motor), if only it had not been disqualified in the 1st Round it would have been closer at the top. Mountain View's Alfa T33 with the home advantage made 2nd and the Porsche 917/10 of Courtney Sport only making 3rd this Round.
