[Top Down]

August 5th report:

Two new people, Ben and yet another Mark, turned up and really enjoyed racing on the big track. Very friendly. We're hoping they will join.

1st support race, Club Slot.it Nissan GT1's, with reduced voltage it gave the new comers a chance to learn the track, with the experienced club driver, David, coming home 1st.

          

2nd support race, Scalextric Mk1 Escorts, slightly modified 1970’s cars running very well with door handles touching lap after lap, David coming home in 1st place.

At one point David and Vic' were side by side at the corner after the drivers station when David's car went up on 2 wheels for a few inches before dropping back into the slot to carry on racing. Great fun but no photo.

          

   

Main race, Owner/Driver Saloon cars, attracted a very varied field but with them all being limited to 20k motors & 11 volts racing was very close, with Vic coming home in 1st place.

          

          

          

          

(Brian has generously donated many track sections to the club, which will be used to lengthen the main straight to over 32 feet.)

Next race night: Sept 2nd. 

Main race: Owner/driver Rally cars (motor max 21,00rpm and inline chassis.) 
Support race: Club Peugeot 206s.
