Hi,
Last Saturday(1st June), we saw ROUND 5 of Hinckleys 2013 OffRoad Club Championships!
Main HRCCC OffRoad Organiser Mark Stevens was at the Site extremely early, to get the Grass cut & Venue Prepared for another Fantastic days Racing in some awesome Hot Sunny Weather again!
Dedicated Buggy Driver Steve Haskins then headed a small Group of Members/Racers, to Help get all the Hoses & other Equipment out of the Container, to Setup Race Control & Assemble another Great Track!
By this time, the Racers were Arriving in their Droves, Setting up quite a Large Pitting Area & creating a great Atmosphere for all the Drivers!

The Turnout managed to Create 5 Full Heats(4x 2WD Buggy & 1x 4WD Buggy), making the Racing extremely Close & Competitive allday.
The Track itself, was very Fast & Flowing, incorporating a selection of High-Speed Chicanes(Steves Favourite! ), a Long Back-Straight for some Overtaking & a slightly Tricky Table-Top section. New for this week was the inclusion of 'Grippy Stuff' on both the Table Ramps & Jumps, giving everyone plenty of Traction/Grip!

Usual Format again.i.e 4 Qualifying Rounds with your Best 2 to Count, Followed by Finals for each, making another amazing days OffRoad Racing at HINCKLEY RADIO CONTROL CAR CLUB!
