I cannot lie...I was hoping for a better showing from my yellow Whitsun Ferrari. But as the saying goes, you can't win the event in Round 0, so fingers crossed for other rounds!
I love puttering with gears

The cars were very close mid field and I think the order just depended on which tyres suited my Carrera track the most.

Have you made an up to date proposed calendar for the rounds Graham so I can pencil in a weekend?
Thanks

Good afternoon
The cars have left HQ and are now heading south for the 1st Round at Viking Slot car Club.
I will be on holiday for this and the subsequent 2nd Round at the Culverstone Raceway, which will be hosted by AdeC , so I will not be able to allocate the points and update the SCOREBOARD for each of the rounds until I return on the 2nd October. But no doubt I will be looking in to see how the rounds are progressing as we go along.
This week I am hoping to confirm the 3rd Round in September depending on the hosts availability.

NERCS will run their round on Wednesday 4th December, so I think it best to send the cars to Manx Club as the Final round. Obviously it takes a few days to get the cars to the IofM, so you would hopefully receive the cars the following week.

I just heard from Jason, that he can add the points himself
And since there are no Round penalties to be applied, I can’t see why not.
So the SCOREBOARD will be up and running from the first Round.
