I have never done so much racing at one meeting in my life!

4 heats of qualifying 5 mins each (Although I missed one heat and only did 4 mins in another!)

C Final - 10 mins

B final 15 mins

A Final 20 mins

I think I will now have a quiet sit down!!!

The car handled the very bumpy track really well, crime fighters were good if a little understeery but car was fairly easy to drive.

The engine played up a bit in that it would'nt run to well from first being started, it stalled when I tried to apply power.

I ran heat one, but the transponder did'nt count properly

Heat two was going well until the steering servo stripped the horn.

Heat three good run

Heat four non start cause Tricky found that my fuel pipe to the tank was loose and not pressurising and I had lost 4 wheel drive

So Tricky, had a look at my car and helped set the engine up.

So, C final, win that.

B Final, win that - got cramp in my thumb and had to get Stu to switch the car off!

A final - I think I came 4th or 5th and had to get a chap to fill my car up as Stu was marshalling

20 mins and only two pit stops - RUNNING ON FUMES!!

Story of my life now though, I think the clutch is slipping.

One clutch slips the other car wont let the clutch go!!!
