RESULTS: Coventry (11/05/2011)

[Johno3]

Hello All,

 

First of all, thanks to everyone that raced tonight. Satrted off a little chaoic from my point of view but it soon got settled down and the racing became very hard fought.

 

Congratulations to Aub on winning the meeting final. MoR finished the night as top points scorer.

 

Just before we get to the results, it was fantastic to have a fewnew faces in the server. I think they will become welcome additions to the league should they wish to join. I would also like to say that it was great to see some old faces back too. I sure hope tat they will be returning tomorrow for the UK Open.

Enjoyed tonight's meeting, it was hard stockcar racing in every race from where I was (and a tad choatic at times in the final!) which is how it should be imo.

 

Well done to Aub for the Final win and to Bully Jnr for his first win!

 

Cheers

A small selection of pictures taken from last night's meeting...

 

 

Blues & Reds race winner - Grasser (233)

 

 

Drumbstick (41) took wins in Heats 1 and 4, seen here challenging Mav (525) and Heat 2 winner SpikeJnr (172)

 

 

It was all-action at the end of Heat 4 as six Red/SS drivers all steamed into the last bend in with a shot at 3rd place

 

 

Rolling lap of the evening's main event, the Grand Final

 

 

Chaos early in the Grand Final caused by a track blockage down the home straight, decimated the chances of many

 

 

Matty (300) gets airbourne into turn1, at the the wheel of a car rumoured to have been purchased from Aub (188)...

 

 

After a heavy-duty race Aub (188) makes his move on lap 18 of the Final, edging leader Tom D (1) out towards a stricken car

 

 

 

 

 

[Aub]

well i had a nightmare sort of the first 2 heats i didnt even finish and got a 3rd in my last heat and that means im gonna have to work bloody hard tonight to make the uk open grid.

 

the final was awesome i was up to 2nd by about lap 3 then me tom and mor had a fantastic race and i made a perfect move on tom for the win.

 

im going to make a video of the final from my pov in car followed by watching it from the track camera's. if johno or someone could send me a copy of the final grid that would be much appreciated.

Tom D has nowhere to go as Harmen's (262) car blocks his path



The World Champ manages to scramble around the outside, but not before Aub is away down the back straight and into a race-winning lead



Early stages of the Grand National



Spike Jnr and Mav Jnr (285) enter turn 3, while their fathers can be seen not far behind in a tussle of their own



Hooty (256) made his first appearance of 2011



Bully Jnr (84) had enjoyed a good spell leading the Final but led all the way to the chequered in the GN, his first UK-Dirt F1 league win
