And now for something completely different....Class R4 - Trucks!
I have not had the pleasure of driving the Trucks before. They are fabulous. Big, unwieldy, fast, and just so different.
In practice (each entry had 10 laps practice to check they ran ok) it was obvious the bridges needed to be raised to let these big "Beasts of Burden" pass safely underneath!
The Mercedes of Grahan was good, and took 3rd. Up the road by 9 seconds we had the incredible twin motor driven MAN of MYST.
One motor for the front axle, one for the rear. A very lightweight body, and bloody quick! What a surprise on this twisty layout.
Top spot though to the returning Ford Transit AA patrol van from Groundhogs, still complete with flashing lights.
This is a Mitoos chassis, so a real decent entry.
My favourite was the MAN of BARacer
Jeremy, it was hilarious
It assaulted all the barriers, knocked itself over on one of the underpasses but just keeps going. Brilliant.
It reminded me of the massive Hummer, entered last year by Topdown, Hello Doug!
