Chuffed to bits!

Very Happy

Well done SteveB, in the 2WD. Long may our reign at the top continue. Shocked

I say long, 6 days, then back to the grind stone for the hope of replication Wink

10 Club champs down Exclamation

I feel it all gets a little serious from here on in Very Happy

. I am looking forward to the stratospheric dummies, the flying toys, the banter and the racing more than ever. Looking forward to the EWS meet next week and the £850 worth of prizes available, especially the £280 prize for the "Most Orange Coated Atomic Shell" which I feel a good chance of winning.

(P.S. - Thank you Paul for the front bumper! Wink

)

Advisory: The post deliberately ignores the fact that John grand slammed maximum points in the 4WD class.

Hi All, Good to get back to the track again.

The new Atomic cars are hot and i think/hope with time so will our results improve.

Sorry that we will not be there next Sunday , but have a good day and hope the weathers good for you.

Next time out the NBC regional so hope to see some of you there then.
Regards, Paul .

A big well done to SteveB for today. The power his Kyosho was putting down coming out of that last corner was evil. It took a rew races to get the swing of the new track, but a good one at the end of the day if a little hard to see the far corners.

LBC · 2005-06 CLUB CHAMPION, 2008 2WD CHAMPION

Well, I didn't feel a bit like racing yesterday, which reflected in my driving: pants! My apologies to Spike and the umpteen others I collided with. Hopefully normal service will be resumed asap!
A big well done to Ben H and Steve B. Really good to see different people winning the "A" Finals, and for both the first of many no doubt.
As Ben said, this is where it all starts to hot up, with dropped scores coming into play, and everyone starts to concertina. It's gonna be pretty tight, especially the 2wd where Matt, with some good performances lately, has put himself back in the frame; and Juddy was unlucky not to get a maximum 30 yesterday!
I agree with Matt about the far hairpins, they're a job to sight, but unfortunately the rest of the infield is so rough and unusable at the mo.
I'll have to bring them in a bit, and put another kink in just before going on to the straight section.
Sorry for the Results delay- the scorechart's in the back of Ben's wagon!

The new track was great - well done to those who put the effort in.

The Losi held together for a whole meeting - no complaints yet - just got to go a bit faster after snatching defeat from the jaws of victory on the last lap in three races Embarassed

Well done to the A final winners, especially Steve B starting from 6th on the grid to win the 2wd. I fear he's been toying with us for the last few weeks like John M did the first few meetings!

John Myall · 2007-08 CLUB CHAMP; 2007-08 4WD CHAMPION

I thought the track was great, no need to change anything I feel, well done to the chaps who put the time in to build it Cool

Well done to Steve B and Ben H on being first time A Final winners, great to see new people winning the final, even if Ben's came at my expence Confused

but fair play, he drove better then I did, I tried to drive a little more calmly then normal, but the car didn't like that, started to grip roll in places it hadn't even thought about all day Surprised

Can't make the EWS Classic next week, so might see a few of you at the NBC Regional, but good luck to the LBC'ers at the LBC v Coastal race Smile

Looking forward to the next Club Champs meet sometime next month.

It was good to get back on track this week for me, my heart has'nt been in it the last few weeks.

Well done to Ben and Steve, and thanks to Jim and the Steves for laying such a good track for us!!
