Congratulations to David Orbell for winning the First East of England 2wd Regional at MERCC on Sunday. I thought that despite the low turn out of entries it was a really good days racing and everyone I spoke to seemed to enjoy being back on the regional scene after the winter break. The weather helped loads as it was a nice warm day and MERCC has done a superb job with laying out a technical but flowing track.
I personally thought that the 3 rounds of qualifying and 3 leg finals for everyone put a bit more pressure on doing a decent qualifying run each time out, while the three leg finals gave drivers the chance to be a bit ambitious in a leg knowing that they had another chance.
All in all a good days racing and hope to see some more faces at the first 4wd regional at Coastals track in Ipswich.
