Some great photos there.

I had a great time on Sunday. Nice to see old faces and meet new.

For my first time driving an rc car for 10 years, and 16 since driving an offroad car in a race I had some targets that I gradually changed throughout the day.

1st one was to not break it and finish all the races. (which I managed apart from popping a balljoint in practice)

This then moved on to not being marshalled in any of the heats (which I managed)

Then after Rnd 2 sitting 9th, My aim was to make the A. (Just scraped in after rd 3)

Then my target was not to finish last, which I managed (just)

Understandably off the pace despite consistent lap times. A bit much to expect it to be on the pace and I knew where I was too slow and although it felt quick enough I was being passed easily on the straight. Also as the track got faster I didnt.................

Much to improve for next time and for the full season next yr.

BTW for an oldie like me I love the personal transponders and the lipos and brushless remove so much of the guesswork.....Great stuff.

Cheers.
David
