Race Night 9/5/12

First of all  a big welcome to  our newest  member Steve. He  is our 9th member of  our  club. He hasn't raced for 30 odd years, so  is a bit rusty. By the  end of the night he was  getting things together, so no  doubt once he has blown  the cobwebs  off he will be  right up there.
With  the club  getting bigger we  have to  fit more races in, so it  is very  important that we get the  racing started by 7, otherwise the racing finishes quite late.
Daniel  was away for the  night so there was 8 drivers  lined  up on the starting grid for the  nights racing.
In qualifying Darren got off to a flying start by doing a 16.7 closely followed by Dan with a 16.5 with Trevor not that far behind with a 16.3. Stu didn't quite make it into the 16's, but came very close by doing a 15.9. Peter was nipping at his heals with a 15.7. Barry found it hard going with couple of off's and ended with a 14.7. Steve was straight into it by posting a 14.0 and Tony did well to do a 12.1
By the end of the 1st round Trevor was on top of the ladder board with a 146.5 with Darren 2 laps behind with 144.5  . Dan did a 143.2 which gave him 4.3 laps  lead over Peter who did a 138.9 .  Then it was Barry with a 137.7 followed by a gap of 2.9 to Stu's 134.8 .  Steve did well by doing a 126.6 which gave him a lead of 17.5 over Tony's 109.1
The 2nd round saw Peter come out tops with a 145.4 which was one lap  better  than  Darren's 144.4 . Trevor was 0.6 behind him with a 143.8 which gave him a 1.9 lap buffer to Dan who did a 141.9 .  The next two were close together with Barry doing a 138 dead which was 1.4 laps better than Stu's 136.6  . Steve was only 4.5 laps behind with a 132.1  . Tony found some extra pace by doing a 114.6
In the 3rd and final round there was only 4.1 laps separating the top 4 guys. Trevor again took it out with a 145.2 which was only 0.9 better than Darren's 144.3 . Dan who did a 142.9  was 1.5 laps better than Peter's 141.4 .  Next it was Steve with a 134.3 which was 4.6 laps better than Stu who did a 129.7 when a wheel came off. Tony did his best run of the night, but was 14.6 laps behind with115.1
So when the tyre dust settled down and everything added up the results are as follows;
Trevor     451.8  (+0)
Darren     449.9  (+1.9)
Dan         444.5   (+5.4)
Peter        441.4   (+3.1)
Barry        426.6   (+14.8)
Stu            417.0   (+9.6)
Steve        407.0    (+10)
Tony         350.9    (56.1)

Next weeks racing will be at the Scantlebury track. With a mixture of 1/24th LMP and Sedan 1/32 cars, it should be a great nights racing. So oil up your cars, dust them off and I will see you there.  Trevor
