Race reports - 4th May - Saloons + Sports

Mike turned up with the Little Druidale cottage and stone bridge fully painted, both looking fantastic.

Saloons

   

Heats were chosen to put Ed, Mike H and A.N.Other together, with A.N.Other being Geoff’s Subaru…it wasn’t plain sailing for the Scooby…although he did win Heat #1 fairly easily.
Mike H’s Camaro won Heat #3 with his best lane score ahead of Ed’s Opel also with his best score with Geoff’s Scooby having 4WD system failure as the (laccy band) bound the front axle.
The Scooby with 4WD intact blasted round in it’s final heat with Geoff’s best lane score.  Mike H vs Ed was great racing tonight, very close at times…but not as close as the following Sports racing.

Of the other cars raced tonight, Andy’s Peugeot was far ahead of the rest, winning all three of his heats.
Brian had the closest races tonight, his Opel finishing on the same lap as Kev’s Audi DTM in Heat #6 and Mike’s Notchback Mustang in Heat #7, both of these heats won by Andy’s Peugeot.  Heat #6 had a car from each class, Standard, Modified and Open.

   

Heat wins in heat order for Geoff, Andy, Mike H & Kev

Sport

   

Time for the quick guys…

Ed & Mike H were joined this time by Brian, this turned out to be a good choice as again there were super close races between Ed & Mike, both finishing on the same lap at the end of Heat #1 and Brian’s Mosler way off ahead.
Mike’s Mclaren improved each round and Ed’s Audi couldn’t quite match the pace but they were banging doors a few times, it was great to watch.

Heat #2 saw the return of Andy’s Porsche 917, setting a great pace in Red lane with Geoff & Mike B chasing hard with Moslers.
Heat #4 was going to be quick as Kev’s ‘Copper Rocket’ and Andy’s Porsche were hammering round the track under 6 second laps, Geoff’s Mosler trying hard to stay in touch.
Heat #6 was close as Geoff & Mike raced across the finish line within one second of each other whilst Kev’s Mosler finished on his 32nd lap.
