Johno3 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Posted March 6, 2011 (edited) COVENTRY - WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP QUALIFYING ROUND 4 THURSDAY 10TH MARCH - START TIME: 8:30pm This Thursday sees the mighty UK Dirt F1's return to the scene of best ever UK Dirt F1 World Final. In September 2010, the race started with no fewer than 15 drivers fighting for the lead in the early laps and finished with 3 drivers in with a shout going into the last bend. When the chequered flag dropped it was TomD (1) who took the flag and with it the all important gold roof. Coventry was the venue and this is where the F1's will do battle for those all important World Championship Qualifying Points. Last week saw the first meeting of the new season and with it a first time final winner in Dode (151). Dode was not the only driver to impress however, as Southy (277) was to finish as the top points scorer after winning a heat, finishing second in the final and taking the flag in the Grand National. It was very pleasing to see that the big guns did not have it all their own way with all the wins going the way of yellow and blue grade drivers. That was tarmac though and it will be interesting to see how they get on this week on the shale of the league premier venue. Looking briefly at the World Championship Qualifying list, which is still very much in its infancy, and we see that MoR (137) is currently top of the chart from current World Champion TomD. Harman (262) is another driver to have made a good start and Southy’s point haul from last week sees him in the top five. As I mentioned though, the chart is very much in its infancy and one good meeting could see a driver make a significant move towards the top of the chart. This Thursday also sees the second round of the Whites and Yellows Championship. Although there were only a few cars on the grid, this was one of the best races of the night, if not the best. Spike JNR (172) and Southy (277) were hard at it with Big Al (515) not too far behind ready to pounce if anyone made a mistake. In the end, Spike JNR took the win on the final bend, with Southy finishing second and Big Al third. This means that once again there is something for everyone at another classic UK Dirt F1 meeting. Practise will be made available on the Wednesday night. This meeting will also be under lights. So what are you waiting for? Everything is set for another classic meeting. All you need to do is get yourself booked in! Cheers Johno Edited March 6, 2011 by Johno3
