  2. This week the F2s are at the very tricky Crimond raceway based deep in Scotland! with not many Scottish drivers present this season, a lot will be making a 200 + plus mile trip to the racecourse! Drivers will more than likely be racing in 2 heats and the top 18 going into the final, and another 5 from the consolation, this is the first time the Brisca F2 Stockcars have race here this season! With this being the last meeting before the new grades are announced drivers will be looking to move up or keep their current grade! And getting those all-important WQR points Leading the entry will be the current world champion #112 TomD, Tom is currently leading the WQR points after his final win at Hendesford last week, close on his heals is Dutchman #315 Mike who will also be present, #560 Dodge will be making the trip with fellow racer #115 Green, both of these have the pace and the race craft to win finals from the star grade will we see another final win from them? #236 Danskin will be making the trip, the current British champion has yet to show us what he is made of as he’s been a little off his usual standards this season but I’m sure he will be one to watch! #41 Drumbstick will be making the trip also. Looking at the current blue graders #210 Skegtomp will be present on his new Randall motorsport car, finding it tough from blue but I’m sure he will be giving it 110%, not forgetting the very fast blue grader who may make it to red for next month is #92 Hoggy, after watching Hoggy closely he seems to be 1st or last! if the race goes his way he can win by a far margin! Another blue grader #237 Rickyjames will be here, looking for a drop to yellow nest month but never the less he can set the lap times so I wouldn’t bet against some strong finishes this week! Yellow Graders now #31 Simon will be attendance after his GN win last week, the 2011 Novice Of The Year is finding it hard this year with time on his real f2! another very fast yellow top is # 33 Jakie very fast driver indeed i would imagine he will be bagging in a few WQR points this week! #48 Tinman will be present from his Dutch base. #45 Mat is set to be on the grid with fellow white grades #954 SamWhit and #619 Longden, all 3 drivers have similar pace and very hard to catch from the front! Will these be taking the glory this week? BOOK IN NOW IT’S GONNA BE A CORCKER!
  3. enjoyed the meeting, glad i got a win, i cant seem to find the pace this year tho am well off it! must say sorry to matt 45 for stuffing him at the end of the GN after the flag, i thought it was longdon as he tried lap downing me in the race! Simon#31

  6. MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT “Qualifying for the World Final and Central Series finals and Winning my first race at hednesford semi-final meeting” Dougieford “Leading the world final for 1 bend” - Green “ive sat here for ages and for the 1st time I can’t actually think of 1, how sad” – Dave488 “Winning my first ever F2 Final at UKDirt at Crimond on 22/08/2011” – Jack249 “Winning First Final” – Scootah129 “British title win - proud to have a nice roof on the car. Perhaps wasn't the most exciting race, but I made my moves early and got away.” – Danskin236 “Starting near the back of the World Final and finding myself 5th after a few laps. I kept the position whilst staying with the leading pack until just after the half-way point I got caught and tangled with a spinning backmarker.” Southy277 “Winning a few races” – Craig122 “Entering my last lap and I was in the last qualifying place. Next position was no where near, so I felt confident of qualifying for my first ever rFactor WF. Exiting last bend, Daveyboy #380 (who was one place ahead of me) got it wrong, spinning me out yards before the finishing line. Leader passed me to take the flag and Daveyboy spun across the line claiming his place on the WF grid; but before I could get going again in the right direction, two cars passed me, one taking that all important final position on the WF grid!! So I failed to grid by yards!!! However due to people dropping out the WF, and having qualified via the Consi-Semi, I found myself higher on the grid than what I would have been if I had finished the Semi in last place!!! Ironically Daveyboy disco’d in the WF and I had a very poor race.” – Mav641 “Probably the top 10 in my first WF after struggling early on in race” – Dodge560 “Winning stuff, albeit in W+Y and finally grabbing a heat win at the last meeting!” – Ryano “Staying red all season apart from the last month!” – Leech774 “Winning the World Final and National Points Championship, Aswell as several other Championships!” – TomD “Winning at brum, couldn't believe i went so well” – Budge313 “Winning my first race at Cowdie. It was a grand national too after riding Leech's last bender.” – Samwit954 “4 wins in my first meeting” – Jase756 “Winning the world of shale championship after a good battle” – Mike315 “Holding onto 3rd place in heat 4 in the above meeting after being pressured by samwit for most of the race” – Mart 718 Comments Feedback “Loved every meeting this year, the meeting were always as fast as possible and was some great banter” - Dougieford “great first year and hope the same for next year” – Green “less bloody moaning in the server for gods sake it gets sooooo boring!!!” – Dave488 “Decent season, much prefer the Shale to tarmac and hope tarmac physics don’t take another step back for next season.” – Leek “I joined at the second half of the season and it was all very enjoyable! The admin have done a brilliant job to keep the racing fair and run well on race nights. Feedback will be for admin to keep it up, Keep the serious head on and we should be in for another good season.” – Jack249 “Keep up the good work, very enjoyable season and in general well run meetings/league.” – DanSkin “Would like to see more shale meetings, seems to be much more tarmac. Would like to see driving standards improved which can be done with the strict use of the wheel.” – Southy277 “well run mod all i can say really, top job admins” – Craig122 “Admin have done a sterling job this season, even though they have had a lot of criticism from certain drivers. Having raced most of this season, there is not a lot more they can actually do to improve the mod, its more down to the drivers to accept it for what it is and make the most of it. A lot of the time the racing was fantastic in 2011, other times it was very roundy roundy. Admin – hats off to you – it’s been informative, up to date and very well organised. Thank you for putting on a great show. I hope you will all stay for 2012.” – Mav641 “Great 1st season, really enjoyed most of it.” – Dodge560 “Great year, thanks to all admin for their work to keep me busy on a Monday night!” – Si31 “Great work from all admins and I wouldn’t change I thing, love racing.” – Leech774 “Thanks Admin for the season and there has been some cracking racing all year, Here to the same next year!” – TomD “Not taken part in many meetings but really enjoyed the ones I did” – Mart718 AIMS FOR 2012 “Win more races and become red or better top” - Dougieford “To win a championship” – Green115 “to get to be more consistent with results, on both tar and shale 9maybe dreaming there thou” – Dave488 “Don't set targets anymore, less pressure and more enjoyment that way” – Leek “Get myself back to Red Grade and achieve my first shale final victory in UKDirt.” – Jack249 “Keep a fancy roof colour on the car... Won't be able to race every meeting so challenging for silver is out of the question. Looking further ahead with (hopefully) a World Final at Barford, it would be nice to get on the grid and perform well at my "local" track.” – DanSkin236 “Gain Red grade and get top 3 in a championship” Southy277 “Race more often and get better” – Craig122 “My personal aims for 2012 will be to continue to hold my blue roof, and go one step further than 2011. Whether that means being on the front row of the WOS, or winning 5 races, or even winning a final. Whatever it is, I just hope to enjoy it and do the best that I am able.” – Mav641 “Try and find a little more consistency in lap times, progress on my achievements from this year” – Dodge560 “Win Stuff, if I race” – Ryano “To keep a red top and win a couple of finals!” – Si31 “Win a championship as have been getting quicker but never any luck in a championship.” – Leech774 “To retain my Current Titles!” – TomD “Not to get pissed off with the game, and race a bit more” – Budge313 “Add a British or Euro title” – Drumbstick “To be competitive at blue. Gives me some chances of winning” - Samwit “Do more meetings and try to beat Tom finally lol” – Mike315 “Main aim is to try ad reach Blue Grade and stay there, maybe pick up a minor title on the way” – Mart 718 HOW WAS 2011 FOR YOU How was 2011 For You: “Was great going from white through to blue top” - Dougieford “im happy with 4th in points but the championship races was shocking with luck” – Green115 “to be honest I think it’s the worst year results and enjoyment wise I think I have had since i joined ukdirt in 2007, i don’t think the racing has got worse i just dont seem to enjoy it as I did” - Dave488 “Was ok, very on and off season for me, tended to enjoy the Shale meetings alot more than Tarmac. Hope to see alot more Shale meetings for 2012” – Leek “From when I joined halfway through the season it was very enjoyable. Enjoyed racing with a lot of you and looking forward to it all again next year!” Jack249 “Honestly, a lot more than I expected. It has been a pleasure racing from the back of the grid for most of the year, I particularly enjoyed stringing together 3 final wins on the trot at the start of September, but was bitterly disappointed not to be able to race the World Final.” DanSkin236 “2011 was great for me. I past my aims and reached red for a short period. I had a good run in the WQR and great race in the World Final until I got tangled with a spun car.” Southy277 “got from white to blue so well chuffed il take that in first season racing rfactor” – Craig122 “Some drivers I took out won’t agree, but I feel that I came on leaps and bounds in 2011. I started driving with my head and picking up places, and points. I particularly was happy with how my shale racing improved, so much so that I was on the second row of the WOS, a personal best for me. I qualified for the British Championship despite only racing 3 of the 5 races and thus continued my run of every British Championship Final since 2003. Overall pretty satisfied with the season!” – Mav641 “Really pleased with the first season, only completed half of the season and finished in top 10 of national points and mainly all racing was done from red grade too.” Dodge560 “Learning curve, quite a steep one too, I'm no good at racing where the cars go left I've found!” – Ryano “was a good year, won NOY and whites and yellows, managed to win the Consi semi final, 5th in european and Golden Helmet!” – Si31 “Not having any luck in the big races but overall was a great season for me !” – Leech774 “Excellent, My best year ever in F2's. I just felt so good on all tracks!” – TomD “Frustrating” – Drumbstick “It was mixed. I wasn't very consistent until I was at yellow. That’s why I lost the NoY” – Samwit954 “didn’t race much, but it was good” – Jase756 “Mixed year, I have had some brilliant battles good races but also sometimes lost interest in the season.” – Mike315 “Steady, Bit of a learning curve ready for 2012” – Mart 718 PERSON TO BEAT IN 2012 TomD#112 “He keeps getting in my way lol” “It’s always going to be the same – Tom, Dan and Drumb if they do a full year, maybe Green added in if he settles in more” “The guy is becoming unstoppable!”
