Johno3 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) Next Thursday sees the third One Night Double Headers. Thus far, we have had a shale spectacular, a Dutch double header, and now we are going to have the 2009 SCOTTISH CHAMPIONSHIP DOUBLE HEADER. The Meetings - KNOCKHILL (Start time: 8pm) The 2009 SCOTTISH CHAMPIONSHIP - COWDENBEATH (Startime: 9:30pm) World Championship Qualifying Round 9 The tracks - KNOCKHILL This is the only track on the fixture list that does not have the traditional 4 corners. Instead, it has 2 corners, and one very tight hairpin, making it a very unique track on the calendar. Add to that the fact that there is no fence on the outside on the track, with this instead being replaced by gravel traps and grass, and you can see that this makes for a very interesting meeting. Last year, Knockhill produced a classic meeting that was very hard fought right through the grid, with the eventual winner of the title, The Green Genie (298), coming from the blue grade. - COWDENBEATH Although this does have the traditional 4 corners of an F1 race track, there is no doubt in anyone’s mind that this is a unique venue. The track is so tight that it is very hard to pass, and is sometimes known as the track with one line. In real life, it is very scary because of how close you get to the wall on the outside, on most of the lap, and this has been replicated very nicely in the online version. Last year, the track was not around, but it was used in the Winter Series, and produced some very interesting racing. Action came from all through the field, and the reds really struggled to make their way through the field. There is no doubt that this is a good opportunity for some of the lower grade drivers to score some healthy points as they look for a good spot on the semi final grid. The Championship Race The championship race itself will be run as a normal meeting final at the Knockhill meeting. The top 20 drivers from the heats and consolation (if required) will be put onto the grid, gridded using grades within grades rule. The race will last over 20 laps, and the winner of the raced will become the 2009 SCOTTISH CHAMPION. The World Championship Qualifying Points Chart Kev updated his site this week, and after a hard fought meeting at Belle Vue the current points chart looks as follows (top 20 only – A full list can be found on Kev 149.com): 1 136 Kruiz 247 2 112 Tom D 166 3 3 Johno 166 4 137 MoR 161 5 16 JK 145 6 288 Ironmac 144 7 363 razza 137 8 8 tosh874 120 9 531 Lee 109 10 315 Mike 100 11 291 Marten 71 12 561 Murf 68 13 233 Grasser 67 14 216 speedtech 65 15 290 Dazza 60 16 151 dode 56 17 488 dave 55 18 2 Michael 54 19 11 chevy 47 20 188 Aub 46 Biggest mover from the Belle Vue meeting was MOR (137) who now finds himself currently in a front row slot for a semi final. KRUIZ (136) still currently holds a very good lead, and is unlikely to be caught as the meetings run down. IRONMAC (288) was another big mover and now finds himself in 6th pace in the chart, with a massive opportunity to get even higher as he will be starting at the yellow grade for this meeting. One man that appears to be in free fall in this chart is TOSH (8). After a bad meeting at Buxton, he was not very well and dint race at Belle Vue and now find himself in 8th place. Starting from red will be hard for anyone, but Tosh is at his home venue and thus this could well spur him on to get a good points haul. Elsewhere, DAVE (488) had a cracking meeting at Buxton, and after scoring quite well in the winter series at Cowdenbeath, he will no doubt be looking to try and score more points and cement his place inside the top 20. MICHAEL (2) could well race and thus continue his progress in the chart. Looking outside the top 20, and it is possible that JIMMY (259) and TRAV (365) could find themselves in the top 20 after Cowdenbeath. Both drivers are in the lower grades, and are currently going well, so therefore they are a good bet to get into the top 20. One thing to note is that only 20 cars will be on the grid for the meeting final, due to the tight nature of the track. The Booking List As it stands, the booking list for KNOCKHILL is the only one that is open, and that is because you can book in on the UK Dirt Website, and at the time of writing this, and with a week left to go, there is currently 12 cars booked in. There is no doubt that this booking list will increase as the week goes on, but it is good to see that we already have two Scottish drivers in the field in the form of WALKER (363) and TOSH (8). Both drivers will be looking for a really good double header at their home venue. Bookings for COWDENBEATH will now take place at the bottom of this thread. If you would like to book in for this meeting, then add your name and your grade below. I will try and keep the booking list up to date throughout the week. Finally There is no doubt that this double header is going to be heard work, but if you want 2 meetings that are not for the faint hearted, then these are definitely the meetings to attend. The racing in real life in Scotland is sensational, and I am sure that our version of the Scottish Weekend will not disappoint. So what are you waiting for, get yourself booked in....... UK Dirt Website for KNOCKHILL and on THIS THREAD for COWDENBEATH. Cheers Johno Edited May 28, 2009 by Johno3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
