Well just got back from Tivvy after a 480 mile round trip and it was worth all the effort what a fantastic meeting. Well done to Jackie and her crew for a seemless meeting(apart from comp glitch which was no ones fault). The track was massive and really good to drive, weather was very nice.
Congrats to Darren and Lee for their wins. My racing this weekend was mixed 2wd on sat I was not happy with ended up in the K final and didnt finish it battery problem. Today in 4wd I was well happy finished up in the J final doesn't sound any better but my overall performance was better I improved by five seconds every round and ended up with 10 laps in 322. The times were so close today that show the quality of drivers in the british championship. Only a month till the next round will have to start on my cars and change all the setting back to how they were.(and get all my tyres before the event next time).

717 mile round trip... 7 hours down, 6 hours back... YAAAWN.

Good meeting though, bit disappointed with 2wd but 4wd was awesome, until my irritating glitches in the final. Good crack

Can't believe the way I was racing in that final- I was all over the place! Stu Evans screamed with laughter when I rolled it trying to stay ahead of him, git.I never got the hang of that tabletop and I was really slow through there.

Great result for Bloomers and even more so for Lee with a car he's not raced before.

You'd have got home a little earlier if "H" had used his right foot a bit more.

I suppose that goes for most people we passed on our 2 hour trip back to Telford.

Maybe he could have got another 10mph out of it but then is 125 going to far?

Yeah I had problems up that top bit, I just couldn't see it properly or figure out a fast way.. I did well in qualifying just by being consistent. but for the final I needed to be quick thru there and I wasn't..
Missed my practice when the brushless fell apart, thats mi excuse.

I'll get you next time STU!

Haha, you WOULD say that!

That was a class race, apart from that one corner each lap!

Looking forward to Kiddy now, more good weather would be nice too!

Not advisable to EAT as you are about to start a race.
