Your new incoming committee consists of the following.
President - Brandon Elliott
Secretary/Treasurer- Damien Mosey
General Comittee- Jason Mosey
Scott Bourke
Dave Iversen
Please feel free to approach any of us if you have any questions.
Now on to the racing.
The track took a heap of water and a bit more after the 1st, and the heats where a mixed bag for everyone, slippery and treacherous.
8th scale saw Damien, Brad and Greg, battle it out for the 7 mins with Damien coming out on top for that one.
2wd- heat1 - bit of a stacked field, mixed efra and Baja, jason Mosey flew out the gate with his efra 2wd, with a lights to Flag win, Paul did much the same with Baja
4wd - sc/ buggy combined -
Most of the usual suspects in this one, except for Brandon Elliott rolled out with his MCD for some practice for upcoming Nationals . The pace was quick Paul Savage was on fire with his buggy, but not quite quick enough to catch Brandon.
Andrew showed consistency in Short Course to take that one .
Heat 2 looked very similar, only exception was Paul Savage took the win in Buggy due to a dnf from Brandon.
Finals time !!
8th scale - 3 of the usual suspects took off out front Damien, Brad and Greg, Damien took an early lead, Brad was on a charge though, strategy was the game here and Greg's plan was just be consistent laps and he would be right there at the end, an early crash from Damien saw Brad take the lead, enough to give him enough time for a pit stop and go on a rampage, too quick for Damien, who had another crash which gave 2nd to Greg for a short period and eventually swapping back.
1st - Brad Squiers
2nd - Damien Mosey
3rd - Greg Young
2wd combined
Similar to the heats, Jason shot off to an early lead, with his Efra 2wd, whilst the Baja boys duked it out for the 15 minutes, Nigel & Paul traded positions to the end and Dave played the waiting game, one mistake from the first 2 and he would be there, unfortunately for him the mistake never came and Paul managed to hold the lead in the End from Nigel.
2wd efra -
1st - Jason Mosey
2wd Baja
1st - Paul Savage
2nd - Nigel Dunn
3rd - Dave Iversen
4wd sc & buggy
This was set to be a cracker, did the trucks have anything for the buggies, did it matter, of course it did, pride was at stake here.
Both buggies up the front at the start, and a gaggle of trucks hunting them Brandon and Paul took a commanding lead early in the race within a race, Andrew led the trucks from the start, Brandon stretched his lead over Paul until Paul broke, Andrew held the lead in truck the entire race with solid drives from Adrian for 2nd and Shane with a solid 3rd place with his new truck.
All in all a solid day of racing, all drivers should be commended for their etiquette, couldnt ask for any better driving standards.
See you all in 3 weeks for the next one.
