Race report and results - 20th November 2025 - Club Revoslots followed by Sports
.
The Mountain Road was shut, snow on the hills, freezing cold and hence we were down on numbers but still a good turnout for some great racing.
.
Club Revoslots
.
Mike had a bit of a ‘mare in Red lane and would have been right in the middle of the gaggle of four cars chasing Andy & Kev.
.
There’s a definite way to drive these cars as they handle differently to a plastic chassis car, not as forgiving and will catch you out when you think you’re being careful.
Everyone had close racing and deslots, those with the fewest deslots finished at the top end of the results but overall pace was very similar for everyone.
.
Sports
.
After the Revoslots, it was nice to drive our own Sports cars, although Chris chose to carry on racing a Revoslot, this time a Mercedes GTR which is hugely improved compared to it’s first appearance on the track, these cars need a lot of ‘running in’ (which the club cars get). The Merc is just about on the pace of the Club Revoslots now.
.
Brian & Jamie were close in Prostock Class, Jamie getting into the 6.1’s with the club NSR Mosler. Brian thought he was off-the-pace tonight, looking at his race pace it looks like he was right as he was much quicker in practice.
This was another first for Jamie having never raced a NSR Mosler before, he did really well, a first and two second places are competitive.
.
Chris & Mike weren’t too far apart in Open Class, the UOP Shadow DN4 has a nasty habit of kicking the back end right round and locking the guide which requires marshal intervention and lost time, but he loves driving it and it is quick down the straights.
.
The other two cars were too far ahead in their classes to be caught, and again not that far apart overall at the end but Andy’s falcon powered Riley was too quick for Kev’s predator powered McLaren to compete with. Both cars easily lapping the track under 6 seconds in all three lanes proving the NSR Mosler isn’t always king.
.
Sadly no video this week as the laptop used for recording has a terminal problem…it won’t switch on.
…but a replacement is on it’s way
----------------------------------------
Next week is F1 followed by Group 5
…hopefully it won’t be icy and freezing cold

- A couple of NSR Moslers (Brian & Jamie) and Kev’s Thunderslot McLaren in Prostock Class
- A trio of Open Class cars headed by Andy’s Racer Riley on a Mack chassis, Mike’s UOP Shadow DN4 on a Eurosport chassis and Chris’s Revoslot which is now classified as Open Class now that these kinds of cars are everyday cars rather than the novelty they were after their initial release on the market.
