Wavegreen Good evening,
after a very busy weekend at the National Vintage Slot Car Races at Rockingham, it is back to the proxy show.

My gratitude to Phil at the Wye Valley Club for running this Round tonight, as I know  also had a busy slot racing weekend (but not the same event as me).

I am feeling quite weary and without having to do any night shifts,  so I guess Phil might also, so don't expect any Stage record breaking results......but with Phil driving the cars around the Quarry track you never know  Cool

Hi,
I managed to run event 1, 2 and 3 tonight. 
Two runs for each car. 

One car in event 2 set a new lap record…

And 3 cars in event 3 went under 5 seconds..

Will add up the scores tonight..

Phil.

That's a quick Rally stage, 'eyeballing 10 laps with the stopwatch running'...46-47 seconds

Hi,
Here’s the results from Round 5 Event 1.

The Jaguars were very dominant in this class.
All 3 were lovely to drive.

The Austin Healey with a punchier motor could have given them a fight I think on this track.

Hi,
Here’s the results from round 5 event 2. 

The Savage GT BMW M1 was awesome to drive, the car never lost grip over the 8 laps. 

The Porsche 924 was spot on too and loved the hairpin bends. 
I did enjoy seeing the 80’s Scalextric Metro 6R4 move rapid round the stage… I had an original one back in the day and it was pretty dire. 

The Ninco Lancia and Porsche were very consistent on every lap.

Hi,
Here’s the results from round 5 event 3.

Not a lot between the top 4, all very capable cars. 

The SSRC TR7 sounded rough but couldn’t see anything wrong with the mesh.

Thank you for hosting, and thank you for driving my cars so well  Sun
After the (self inflicted) problems on some earlier stages, I am glad the BMW M1 could show some pace at last  Cool
Courtney Sports Porsche 924 looks like it ran it very close !
