Hi all,

Last Weekend(Saturday 28th July), we saw ROUND 8 of Hinckleys 2012 OffRoad Club Championships.

On Arrival, we were fortunate yet again to have another Warm Dry Day, with some decent Sunny periods, giving a great Start to the Club Meeting!

All Racers & HRCCC Members that Attended, were very lucky for this particular Meeting, as Dedicated OffRoad Hinckley Club Driver Craig Nutting had already Cut all the Grass & virtually Layed out the Whole Track by himself, before everyone had Arrived! Thanks again for this Craig, you did a Fantastic job!

Considering the Big 'Oople Weekend Event' was on, taking a Number of usual Weekly Hinckley Club Racers, we still had a Good Turnout of Drivers, giving 3 Full Heats & allowing alittle extra Time for everyone to have '2 Legged' Finals, as well as the usual 4 Qualifying Rounds - 6 Races for the the usual Price of 5!!

Andrew Slingsby was the New Recruit for running Race Control, with some extra Support from Craig Nutting & Eric Wilcock when Required! Excellent Job Guys, as the Meeting ran extremely smoothly allday!

The Track itself, was Faster & more Flowing than the Previous week, making the Racing Closer & more Competitive. The Corner Table Top Ramp & Straight Table Top were Included in the Circuit, but Craig had come up with a New Idea of using 2 of our Smaller Jumps, Seperated by 4 Railway Sleepers, kind of making a Table Top/Rumble Strip............I have to say it worked great & there was Positive Feedback from all Racers!

HERE ARE SOME PHOTOS OF THE TRACK, FROM LAST WEEKENDS(Saturday 28TH JULY) CLUB MEETING :

Next Club Meeting : SATURDAY 4TH AUGUST
