Hello All
Well here we are at the end of round three with Formula one.
Racing last night was a very close for the top ten with the remaining five there just to make up the numbers. I personally was on the poorest form this years as had Tuesday
in Hospital
and still feeling very rough and broke all three cars in my first three heats, along with others who landed up changing motors and tyre's to try to get the most from their cars
for some it worked, and others it didn't.
The heats went very well with some very close races and some that had run away winners.
The lap record changed hands many times during the evening as all drivers finally get their cars sorted out.
So to the finals: -
Final E
Tonight as it was half term Richard and James E stayed for the finals and although struggling Keith managed a couple of laps in the lead before little James caught him and
went away to win. Keith managed to stay in second even though Richard E was catching him to finish 3rd.
Final D
Little James took his place in yellow along side Imac, Alf and Tone. This was a close race to start with and followed this pattern for a short while then Alf took the lead and
raced away to take the win to be followed home by Imac in 2nd, Tone in 3rd and Little James in 4th, well done to Little James for his first final win as well as some stable
quick driving.
Final C
Alf took his place along side Andy, Ray, and Ian R. The lights went out and all drivers where driving quickly but it was Andy who managed to get away ahead of Alf who spent
the 25 laps chasing Andy and got close a few times. Well done to Ray who raced hard with his very fast car but could do nothing to catch Andy and Alf. Also a big well done
to Ian R who made his first appearance in final C with one of the Boss's cars. well done Ian.
After 25 laps it was Andy who took the win with Alf in 2nd, Ray in third and Ian R at the back.
Final B
Steve lined up along side James H, Andy, and Mike. The first few laps everyone was very close and not more than 4 car lengths between them, but after a few more laps
Mike dropped off the back and Steve raced away with James H chasing hard but was not quick enough to make up any distance which left Andy to race alone in third.
After the 25 laps it was Steve who took the win with James H in 2nd, Andy in 3rd and Mike 4th.
The Big One Final A
We Had the line up of Richard T taking on Lyle, Steve and Alan.
As expected this final was very fast and furious with all places changing hands often as well as the lap record changing on a few occasions during this final.
After 25 laps it was Richard T who took the win and managed to hold on to the new lap record which he set on lap 21. Alan H drove very quick to but just couldn't catch
Richard T. with the final result for the A final as Richard T taking the win, Alan H 2nd, Steve in 3rd and Lyle in 4th.
The overall results
Richard T 25 + 1pt for fastest lap and new lap record 6.175 secs
Alan H 23
Steve 21
Lyle 20
James H 19
Andy 18
Mike 17
Alf 16
Ray 15
