It was back to Dave's track on Thurs the 11th It was also Ed's first race night since the 16th of June at George's place and he was hungry for a win!
There was a great turnout of racers, with Ronan (me), Dave, Ed, Bryan, George, Karl, Peter and Stephen all making it out on the night.
The first race was Bryan's pick and he went for Fly Trucks or similar:
Bryan was on yellow (black SISU), Karl was on red (SCX Mercedes), Peter was on blue (white SISU) and Stephen was on silver (another black SISU).
