[Top Down]

2025 Season - Rnd 12 - Dec 20th

Being December it seemed appropriate for the ten drivers to run their Rally cars, with the club waiving the usual meeting fees to make the last meeting of the year free for all, setting the scene for a similar night of racing!

Support race: Club Policar Subarus - stock apart from a 'Vic race set-up'.

With all cars and motors being the same this was probably the hardest fought and closest finish of the year.

       

Local boy Mark J came home in first place, three and a half laps ahead of the rest of the field, Bill taking second spot on 73.4, barely a third of a lap ahead of David on 73.1. Fourth to sixth was covered by half a lap, Mark W, Shaun and Vic (72.4) filling the card in that order, with seventh place Ben being hot on their heels one lap further down.

         

A stunning penultimate race, with second to sixth places being covered by one lap!

Main race. Owner/Driver Rally cars with inline chassis and motor limit of 21K.

       

Many different makes and models took to the track in various states of tune.

       

More speed meant more crashes! 

       

Ben avoided some of the worst to come home the winner with his NSR Punto Abarth, securing the top spot in the very last heat with another win and the  class record to boot. 

       

Fastest lap was close though, with Mark J eleven hundredths down and Bill just twenty-four hundredths down on Ben's pace. Mark J was in second place overall, 1.6 laps back, with Shaun chasing hard to take third 0.7 laps further back.

       

A great end to the 2025 season.

 

Thanks to the jet-lagged Graham for providing mince pies all round and the club for the free nights racing. Last but not least, all club members were given an early Christmas present of a new 20K motor to install in their own Policar Maserati GT ready for next year.
