Well 17 racing last night with 9TC’s & 8 buggies.
1 new face on the track in Ellis Carr driving not too bad for his first time - making an effort to keep out of the way of the faster buggy lads - hopefully we’ll see him back again.
Just a reminder on the subject of being lapped guys - a few comments about the buggy heat last night as it was a bit busy with 8 racing.
The numbers weren’t the problem, people being lapped and trying to race the leaders was the problem. If you’re being lapped let the lead cars through by running wide on a corner, this costs both cars the least time. Please don’t try to race cars lapping you or try to re-pass them on the straight or at the next corner - especially in the buggy class where getting it wrong is far more likely to result in breaking something.
Anyway, on a positive note, good turn out again with equal nimbers in classes and I’m expecting numbers to increase with the dark nights and bad weather coming so it’s likely at this rate we’ll be back to racing 4 heats for the first time since I can’t remember.
See you all next Monday
