Cheers for both meetings admins!

Quality nights racing at both tracks! Seemed to go well in heats but then run out of luck in the finals, hitting spun cars and getting spun myself.

Wd to all winners! :appl:

Couldn't agree more Stumpy. Two great meetings to watch! Big thanks to TomTom and Simon for the meetings, and ofcourse super stewards Dode and Stumpy! From a personal point of view my racing was rubbish and I spent more time facing the wrong way than I did racing but hey, that's Stockcar racing! I'd like to take a leaf out of Mavs book and give a special shout out to PaulE who managed to get right up there in tonight's points off white grade. This was his 4th meeting, so for a complete novice that's a brilliant achievement.

 

See you all next week for some proper racing! Bring on Mildo!!

Once I had installed the track and managed ten minutes of practice, I found that if I did a clean lap I was quick enough to compete.

The meeting seemed an age to get started, not sure why or even if it was a long time, my tiredness was kicking in badly!

 

Heat 1 and I had a decent start and managed to hold my place to the end, securing a 5th place.

Happy with that, and was hopeful to kick on from there.

Heat 2 and although I was up to 5th again I was tagged and was out of the running.

Sat in 11th I was chasing after Heatrick #342, but every time I got close enough to strike I made a mistake and dropped back.

Last but one lap and Danskin #236 had spun and was re-joining the raceway right in front of us, so I though this was my chance.

I kept my foot in and hoped to push Dan into Heatrick and I would take them both knowing I only had another bend to survive after that.

Best laid plans and all that! Dan slung his car in and where his back bumper was I now found his back wheel. I careered into it forcing Dan fencewards missing Heatrick altogether and in doing so fenced Dan.

It wasn't what I intended at all. I crossed the line in 10th, but not happy with the situation at all. I apologised to Dan saying "That's why I don't use the bumper" and Dan was ok with it, but truthfully I wasn't.

 

That put a downer on the final, the most important race of the night.

I had a good start, hung in there and even managed to make a break for it. Sat in a decent position I was hopeful of a good finish.

However, for the first time tonight, I got too close to a tyre and just glanced it causing me to spin, loosing out on the position I had and having now to contend with the leaders wanting to lap me.

Seeing that was PaulE #394, I didn't want to get in his way and was all but ready to pull over and let him through, but then he made a mistake and dropped back.

I tried to get away but the leaders caught me in the final few laps so I moved over effectively ending my chance to catch others.

Extremely disappointed to have finished 15th, when it could have been so much better.

 

To be honest, my enthusiasm for the Grand National was zero.

I was disappointed, knackered and somewhat bored after racing the same kind of track all night long, with the same result. Jnr didn't even bother with his GN :(

Although it was the last race, I don't remember much about it, just that I circulated after being taken out, and was pleased to see the flag so it had come to an end.

So disappointing results from two meetings, but still glad to have taken part :)

 

Well Done to HHunter #52, I said he would win from yellow!

Now he starts alongside me, but I guess I won't see him for dust like I don't the other blues!

What chance HHunter wins another final before the re-gradings, therefore getting to red, then being upgraded to Superstar due to his position in the grading table - Wouldn't that be unique "White top to Superstar" in one grading period yet been each grade in between!

 

Finally I too would like to congratulate PaulE #394, great results tonight - Well Done :king:

Thanks again Mav! I was down to 10th in the opening laps and I thought the race had gone for me but I was quick enough to win so I just kept pushing and luck came my way! Very good of you to move over in the final stages to let me through. I'm sure winning will get harder and harder as I move up the grades but I will see how I go.
