Race report and results - 24th April 2025 - Group 5 followed by Small Sports/Saloons
.
It was Kev’s birthday, the goodies were very enjoyable.
.
Six club members plus a guest (John) enjoyed another evening of racing.
.
Group 5

   
.
Three Standard Class (Chris, Gav & Kev)
Three Modified Class (Andy, Brian & Ed)
…and a Club BMW (John)
.
We don’t see many changes in this class, most of us have a favourite (and a spare) but the racing is still good as these go pretty well on the track.

   
.
Small Sport/Saloon

   
.
A change in pace, John was warned not to expect the same performance and road handling as the wider Group 5’s…
.
We see quite a few different cars in this class despite it being one of the most challenging classes.
.
Andy’s Cooper Monaco (aka Shelby King Cobra) made a reappearance after a long layoff.
Kev raced his Ferrari 250 GTO 64 after a year (or so) of chassis builds/mods/tweaks/giving up/having yet another go at it…and it went OK.
Ed’s proxy Porsche 904 GTS was out in force.
Brian’s Ferrari 365P2 was going exceptionally well “why is it going so well tonight?”...”probably because you’re driving it properly” came the reply.
Gav raced a Targa Florio Proxy AC Cobra which went round the track nicely.
…and Chris was allowed to race a Camaro, he also lent John a Mustang.  Both cars results are separated from the Small Sports/Saloons results.

   
.
So the end of yet another great night of racing and looking forward to next week…
