Thanks for the meeting. Set myself an aim of 10 points from my first meeting as red and past that so i'm happy.

Was doing well in the final and was hopeing for a good top 10 finish but clipped a beam and spun but continued with some good pace even though I had a shaking steering wheel due to damage.

 

WD all race winners.

[Mav]

I didn't expect to score any points in the next five meetings after being upgraded to blue, but I have!!!

Really chuffed to have had two top ten finishes, disappointed with the final to be 18th, but on the whole I'm happy with 5 points

 

Tarmac next week - maybe a different story!!!

[Matty300]

A great meeting, well run, good, hard, fast racing & a real collectors item seeing Al taking the B final in style with a flawless drive.Well done mate, superb stuff!

[jakie33]

wd done to all the winners great result to big al on his win in the b final 9I(I THINK HE MAY OF JUMPED THE START LOL) joke would of be nice to do better but not found my groove yet having a few issues with set ups i ll have to ask big al for a few tips well done all !!!

[DanSkin]

Very smoothly run meeting I thought, top job fasttrack. Well done to Harmen for picking up 2 heats, the final and top scoring - could be a very profitable month from yellow!

 

For me the racing was difficult, I'm not a big fan of the track because of the evil logs on the infield which people always seems to end up bouncing off... normally to the detriment of other cars around them! Overall though, very enjoyable evening, people seem to have really gotten into the swing of things and we're getting some very fair and competitive racing. Particular respect is due to some of the newly promoted drivers who have leapt up the grades - putting in solid performances still.

 

Some pictures from the final again... unfortunately, again, BigAl won't feature in these... but Matty has been so kind as to provide his own beautiful shot of our B-Final winner!

Makes a change to see me in a photo where I am going the right way!!!

 

Thought you would have posted my spin at Birmingham the other week, right in front of the whole pack!

 

Great pictures tho - keep them coming

[southy277]

Nice photo of me clipping the beam which sent me spinning - Nice one Dan.

at Matty's picture, now on my desktop m8 Very proud!!!

 

Thanks for the comments lads

 

I really enjoyed this track, when you get a good rhythm going round it, it felt a bit like the Stoke track on HEAT but without the bumps (and older drivers will know I liked that track )

 

Obviously it was a big help to be back down to white, and the first couple of laps were generally going well which meant I got away ok. I was very relieved to finally get off the mark for the season, with a couple of top 10's.

 

In my other heat, I made the break and was putting in some good laps, so seemed to have a good lead. I started to see Steppy in my mirrors and could see he was getting a fair bit closer, I think I lost some concentration through thinking about him (even though he kindly said he was going to let me win if he could ) and managed to bring the back end round too far coming off the 4th bend, and ended up on the kerb facing the beams. Took me a while to rejoin safely and just out of the top 10.

 

The B final was a bit down on numbers, but when I got into the lead I wasn't going to mess about and blow the chance of an ultra rare win - not sure if I have EVER won a B final, must have been a long time ago on HEAT if I did, but I was nearly always in the fence in those as they were brilliant fun so I probably didn't.

 

All I can remember about the GN was Samwit making a perfect pass on me at the end to snatch 10th place.

 

With the meeting all finished before 10pm, and a good atmosphere in Chat again, this was a great meeting, thanks all
