April 13th race day - back to regular numbers
          
The April meeting saw the much delayed return of club stalwart Shaun. Finally recovered from his hip replacement he was raring to go racing. He joined eleven other racers to make up the now regular dozen to hit the track on a club night.

Support race: Club Sideways Grp 5's:

 

The long track was set up for racing in the reverse direction (right to left off the start line), the Support Race for the club's Sideways Grp 5 cars being the first class to be run. After some close racing Mark R took the top step of the podium, with Ben in second place and Shaun, quickly back on the pace, coming straight in at third. His faster lap time broke the tie with David, the pair finishing with identical lap scores of 76.700.

          

Main race: Owner/driver Saloon cars.

          

 

The Main Race was for owner/driver Saloon cars, with eleven taking to the track as Alan sat this one out. Many new cars made an appearance with the Slot.Its performing particularly well, coming home in first and second place. 

          

         

          

Fresh from his second place in the Club Class `new boy Ben’ finally delivered his first win, 0.6 laps ahead of `old hand’ Bill. (For those of a certain age, nice to see the flowerpot men racing head to head.)  

   

   

Next meeting is on May Sat 25th with Rally cars as the main class, support tbc
