Race Night 24/10/12
With 3 of the guys away for the nationals and 2 no shows, that left 4 guys to battle it out for the nights racing. We ran 2 cars over all 3 lanes and we managed to get away with 2 marshals with only a couple of track calls when the cars couldn't be put on quickly.
Peter had a fantastic run with no offs all night and came away the clear winner.
The handicap system worked well with only a hand full of laps covering the the 4 places. The full results are as below.
There will be no racing this week, with the following week to be held at Stu's.

Race Night Results 17/10/12 Stu's Track
I wasn't there, but Peter was kind enough to email me the results. With 8 drivers and a handicapped system it was anyone's guess who was going to take away the nights spoils.
It was great night of racing by all accounts with some close racing with Stu and Dan going for it side by side, lap after lap.
The 1st heat saw Stu in front by a coat of paint with 189.64 Peter was 1 lap plus a couple of sections behind with 188.24 with about the same gap to Dan with 187.12 Next was Barry with 176.52 which was good enough to hold out a fast charging Stev who ended up with 175.85 Darren was hanging onto his tail with a 173.68 Daniel, who did a 160.72 did well to pull a bit of a gap to Tony who did a 140.08
The 2nd heat, Stu showed the way by doing the best 3x3 of the night with a impressive 190.12 Dan was next with 187.36 which was just good enough to get ahead of Peter who did 186.72 Barry drove well to come in next with 175.52 and Stev started to blow off the cobwebs off and came in next with a 174.12
Darren found it hard going, but recovered well and finished with 166.36 Despite finding another gear and doing his best 3x3 of the night Tony couldn't get there. Daniel kept his head and came out in front with a 155.44 V's Tony's 148.44
The 3rd round again it saw Stu out in front, this making it a hat trick by doing a 186. It was then a bit of a gap to the next place which was Peter 180.76 and so close, but 0.8 of a section short was Barry with a 180.68 Darren filled the next place with a 172.4, followed closely by Stev with 170.28 Dan was on track to post a good number, but a problem in the final race cost him dearly and brought his total down to 169.04
Next was Daniel with 159.12 which was a comfortable lead over Tony who had troubles in the 2nd to last race and could only post 11 laps, this bring his total down to 118.28
With the handicap added into the totals the results are as below - handicap in ( )
Darren 582.44 (70)
Stu 574.76 (9)
Stev 570.24 (50)
Barry 568.72 (36)

Race Results 10/10/12 Kinloch Track
It was great to finally have all 9 of us turn up to race. It's been awhile, but we got though the nights racing pretty quick. With a light spray of goo on a rubbered up track it was pretty much go from the very start.
In the 1st heat, Peter showed how it was done by doing a 131.15 with Dan close behind with a 130.95 . It was tight between the next 3 with Stu just getting there with a 127.7, Trevor with a 127.4 and Darren with 126.9 . It was also pretty close to the next 4 with Barry coming out tops by doing a 120.9 chased by Stev's 115.25 . Daniel with a 107.25 just got ahead of Tony who did a 104.7 .
The 2nd round saw a change of positions with Peter doing the chasing this time round. Dan drove well and did his best 3x3 of the night and finished off on 133.3 . Just over 1 lap back was Peter on 132.1 . Next was Trevor with 129.7, then Darren with 125.1 Barry did his best of the night and ended up with 123.8
Stu was off the pace and got 118.5 which was good enough to put him ahead of Stev on 112.7 . By doing a 106.8, Tony got one over Daniel who ended up with 105.5
The 3rd and final race, 5 people did their best set of 3x3 of the night. Peter started things off by doing the best 3x3 of the night and ended up on 135.15 . Stu, who also did his best, got back onto the pace and ended with 133.15 . Dan was next with a respectable 132. Trevor couln't get into the 130's and ended up with 129.35 Darren found things a bit tough and stayed in the mid 120's with a 125.55 . Barry was ready to grab another spot, but with a 122.35 fell a little short. Stev found another gear and pulled off his best set of the night and ended with 119.05 . Daniel and Tony also did their best set. Daniel who did a 116.3 was on fire and pulled a 10 lap gap over Tony who did 107.65 .
With the handicaps worked into the totals it saw that being consent was the way to go and Tony went away with the trophy in hand. It was a well deserved win and I'm sure it won't be the last.
417.15 Tony
407.40 Peter
396.25 Dan
394.35 Stu
394.05 Barry
391.55 Darren
386.45 Trev
381.95 Stev
379.05 Daniel
With around 40 laps between 1st and 9th I will adjust the handicaps a little bit the next time we race here.
In the 1st heat, Peter showed how it was done by doing a 131.15 with Dan close behind with a 130.95 . It was tight between the next 3 with Stu just getting there with a 127.7, Trevor with a 127.4 and Darren with 126.9 .

This weeks handicaps
I think I have them right, but time will tell. I went off everyone's best 3x3 laps from last week and used Dan's best as a bench mark with the exception of mine since I have home track advantage. The handicaps are the total for the nights racing. If you think any are wrong, just let me know before the racing starts and I will adjust them.
0 Dan
0 Trev
9 Peter
14 Darren
15 Stu
27 Barry
50 Daniel
98 Tony
Also just a reminder that we will be using the NASCAR bodies for this weeks racing at the Kinloch track.

Race night results 3/10/12
It was the first nights racing at the Kinloch track after about a 8 week break. I glued up the track the night before and it seemed very sticky, but by the time race night came along all the goo was gone from the race line. It wasn't until the last lot of heat racing when the tyre rubber on the track offered some type of grip.
The top order was separated by about 2 laps with Dan leading the way in the 1st round with a 123.30 followed by Darren's 121.60 . Next was Peter with 119.35 then Trevor with 117.70 Stu was next with 115.35 There was about a 4 lap gap to Barry with 111.80 followed by Daniel on 107.80 Rounding things off was Tony with a 93.40
Peter put up a good fight in the 2nd round, but couldn't quite get there and fell 3 sections short. Again Dan came out in front with a 125.25 with Peter close behind with a 125.10 The next 2 places were also close with Trevor just getting there with a 123.45 with V's Darren's 123.05 Next was consent Barry with a 118.95 followed by Daniel with a 110.75 Next was Tony with a 93.05 with Stu having a bad run to finish off things with 92.85
In the 3rd and final round the track had some rubber down on it and it showed with 5 drivers posting their best laps of the night, (the other 3 doing theirs in the 2nd round)
Dan made it a hat trick with a 128.00 which was also the best 3x3 of the night. Next was Trevor with a 125.60 The next 3 were very close with Darren coming out in front with a 123.10 chased hard by Peter with a 122.85 and Stu was ready to pounce with a 122.55 Barry came in next with a 118.90 followed by Daniel 109.05 and Tony had a great run with a 94.75
Once everything was added up, the finishing order went like this;
376.55 Dan
367.75 Darren
367.30 Peter
366.75 Trevor
349.65 Barry
330.75 Stu
327.60 Daniel
