News Bury St Edmunds Slot Car Club

2025 Season - Rnd 9 - Sept 16th

Septembers meeting was down on numbers with some people still on holiday but we  averaged eight and a half drivers over a double header of owner/driver racing for a change. (Usually it's one owner/driver and one club car class.)

Support race: Owner/driver Policar Maserati GTs
 
With equal cars it was down to the car set up and smooth driving from the eight drivers.  Close racing ensued with many side by side battles, Vic eventually coming home in first place just seven feet ahead of Bill. The screen shot from the last heat shows how close the racing was, Alan taking the win by a fifth of a lap from Ben, with Mark J just over a half a second behind in third spot.

                           
 
Main race: Owner/driver Sports and GT cars.
 
Things were a bit different  in the more open Sports/GT class. Nine drivers took to the track, Ben topping the podium with his yellow NSR McLaren? (AKA Mosler!), a full two laps ahead of Vic. However, it was closer between Vic and Mark J, the latter being pipped to third spot by just two thirds of a lap as he pushed Vic to the class's lap record for the night in the final heat.
