Hi all,

Yesterday(Saturday 18th August), we saw ROUND 11 of Hinckleys 2012 OffRoad Club Championships.

A small Bunch of us got down to the Venue nice & early to get all the Grass Cut ready for another Fantastic Days Racing!

By the time that was done, a decent Group of Racers had turned up, to Help get the Markings out & Setup another extremely Large Track very Quickly!
The Track itself, had an a really long Back Straight, allowing for some awesome Overtaking Manovres, a selection of Sweeping corners & some Technical Chicanes to mix things up abit! As well as are usual assortment of Jumps, Straight Table Top & Corner Table Top Ramp, we made a New Obstacle out of a couple of extra Jumps & 4 Railway Sleeps, giving a Table Top-Rumble Strip effect! We also made onother kind of Straight Rumble Strip, out of some Sheets of Board, which also seemed to work well!

We had the usual Format of 4 Qualifying Rds, with your Best 2 to Count, but added 2 Legs to each Final again, making it evenmore Competitive & great Value for Money!

Thanks to everyone who Helped Pack the Track away so Quickly this week........& to a Combination of Andy Slingsby, Mark Stevens & Craig Nutting, who Setup/Ran Race Control during the Meeting!
