Ok, so i have missed a few Race Results off here lately.
Here's the latest installement.
Going into Round 10 of 12 Rounds, so not long to go now.
We're now into Drop scores and because of a few Racers not bieng there for all rounds so far i am TOP !!!!
So, i made a few adjustments to the car, things i had read about various other TC's. Not too sure how it's going to go, but hey, it's worth a Try.
Practice, and the car felt Good ! The Track was a Real Wierd one, but with the changes i had made, i just seemed to hook upto it an d really like it.
Heat 1,
Get off as car 2, and at about Lap 5 take the lead... Never to look back !! It is soooo nice.. I lap the field and come off really chuffed.
Heat 2,
Off as car 1, and it's still Sweet, i put on the Old Tyres just to see, not bad, seems very close yo how it was before.. God i love this Track !!
Dissapear into the distance and lap the whole field again !! Then at about 2/3 stage it starts to feal like it's dumping !! (IB4200's Remember !!) But then it Rockets up the straight. Let Ben, i had just lapped go through, it just seems Dodgy around the bends. Mmm. With in a few laps Ben is now Fighting for the Lead !!!!
Finish 2nd.. Pull the car in and have a quick look to see if anythings wrong but seems ok.
After Marshelling i come back and have a look at the car. Ah ha !!!! The Rear Diff Screw/Bolt has sheard !!! So i had only Front Wheel Drive !!! Now the Handling makes sense !!!
So a quick think, cause i aint got a spare.....
Ha.. take the Front Diff out and put in the Rear.. Then put the One-Way in the Front. Not a fan really, so this should be interesting.
Heat 3,
Off in 1st place, the car is Different !!! Not totally uncontrolable, but is a bit more of a handful !!
Oh well, get on with it. In the end i have to relinquish the lead and i just hope i can stay in touch.
Finish 3rd... And lose Top Spot !!!
Heat 4,
So into the last one and i had a clean up of the not too used One-Way and a general check to see all was ok. Seems to be.
Off we go in 2nd...
Not oo bad, it is Quick, but sooo on the edge with that One-Way in. It's a Fight basically between 3 of us. This goes on the Whole Race and it is Enjoyable but Intense !!! I lose 1st, then 2nd... But then regain, this is how it goes for the 5 minutes !!!!
Eventually Ben and Niel have a coming together, then a couple of mistakes by the pair of them as there trying to catch me back up. I cross the Line....
0.41 secs in front of Ben and Niel is another 1 sec off !!! Pretty Damn Close !!!
So.... Thats it....
My FIRST RACE WIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a night. Thats it for this year now, next Friday is FUN Night !!!
Checked the Standings and....
Neil - 787 Points
Me - 783 Points
Ben - 779 Points
So, Two Rounds left and all to play for. Hopefully i can secure 2nd Place. I will be Well Chuffed with that.
I'll let you know how the last 2 Races go and where i finish in the League.
