Roy B replied to nic's topic in Essential Information
GN Notes: 44 leads away. 555, 515, 16 and 84 delay each other coming to the green. Tom threads the needle and piledrives 515 into turn 1. Caution for a stranded 217. The restart has 515 directly behind 84. Some proper Shootout action at last. 515 gives 84 a big'un into turn 3. Next lap around 84 repays it with such force that both cars cannon into the fence together. Spectacular stuff! 20 and 55 crash out in turn 3 at the same time. Caution to remove the stranded cars. The restart sees the 84 set off with a misaligned rear left wheel. Entering turn 3 the car does a full 360 and ends up on the edge of the pitch. H62 clouts the turn 3 fence and stops. 515 clips the car next time round. Caution to remove the car. H575 heads 16 and 515 for the restart. Entering turn 1 410 gives H575 a big hit which sends Yorens up the fence. 16 leads at halfway. 410 passes 515. 212 spins 20 out on the back straight. 16 pulls off. 410 next to pull off after a close dice with 515. Next Frank has 418 bearing down on him but makes it across the line for the victory. That's it folks. Back from King's Lynn 👍 -

Final Focus: 424 leads away. 212 belts up the inside down the back straight on the opener and hits an infield tyre. 217, 5 and 555 hit the turn 4 fence and remain stuck there locked together. Next lap round 515 helps a drifting 84 into the three parked cars. With a badly rearranged front end on the car Tom straightlines it into the turn 1 fence. 211 comes to grief in turn 3 and gets collected by 191. Caution to remove the multitude of stranded cars from all parts of the track. 238 heads the restart. 55 is the first red to show. 515 side-swipes 410 on the exit of turn 2 which sees Jelle whack the back straight fence. 55 fires 446 into the turn 4 fence. 259 clips the stricken car. Caution to retrieve Joe's car which has a small engine fire. 55 heads the restart. 16 pushes 515 wide in turn 4 for the position. 212 with 515 behind drifts wide in turn 4. FWJ goes through for the place. 55 is away up front with 18 maintaining the gap in 2nd. Caution to move 410 to safety. 55, 18 and 16 are the top three on the restart. 16 takes some good speed into turn 3 and passes 18. 515 loses time with a drift wide in turn 2. At the other end of the track 216 hits the turn 3 fence hard. He bounces out into the path of a fast moving 18 who ends up on his bonnet. A big impact for sure. 515 then clips the cars and a caution is called. All ok. The stage is set for a 55 v 16 showdown over the remaining 5 laps. 515 suffers a flat right rear soon after the green. Craig absolutely leathers it and pulls clear of Mat. The 20 car also with a flat right rear is circulating slowly and gets in the path of 55 who loses time. Next lap around Liam holds both 55 and 16 up but is dealt with by a double hit from the lead duo. The final couple of laps sees the places remain static. -

Consolation Catch Up: 78 makes the grid after only having a one Ministox race time frame to change the front axle. Every credit to Team Wainman. 44 leads away. 68 and 548 slide into each other on the roller. The field slip and slide on the very wet track with most bouncing off the fence at various points. 18, 249, 364 and 24 end up in a heap in turn 1. 335, 418 + one other 'brown' unidentifiable car crash out together in turn 3 and slide towards the rugby pitch. H575 drifts onto the pitch and leaves a nice groove in the turf. Caution for a stranded 78 in turn 3. 5 and 55 head the restart. 55 takes the lead from Charlie and both pull clear. A wayward 424 delays 55 down the homestraight and into turn 1. Craig gets sent onto the outside line which sees the 5 car pounce and move into the lead. With 2 to go the 55 car is back on the 5's rear bumper and pressures the World Champ into turn 3. Charlie takes a bit too much speed in and clouts the fence on the entrance to the home straight. Craig is through and into the lead without making any contact. -

Caution to get him to safety. 424 heads the restart. 55 sends the two F2 boys - 68 and 95 - into the turn 3 fence. Next lap 364 and 68 hit the turn 1 fence and remain there. 55 leads with 84 a fair distance back. 216, 191, 410 and 424 try to go four abreast down the back straight.

H62 and 5 clash on the exit of turn 4 and get stuck up against the fence. 95 collides with the pair. 446 has a dig at the rear end of the 84 car. As the rain falls 55 spins it in turn 3 which sees 84 through for the lead. 127 slips and slides his way around the wet shale in his big block tar car. A lap down 55 plays a rear gunner close behind 84. Coming to the flag Craig half spins exiting turn 4 which slows up the 2nd placed 217 car. -

Coming to the green 53 hits an infield marker tyre on the exit of turn 4 which sees the following cars take different lines in avoidance. 249, 335 and 418 tangle together on the home straight which causes 555 to half spin in turn 1.

GN Notes: 489 leads away. From the get go the 84 car is on a mission and despatches those in front with a forceful and immediate hit. 16 slows going through turn 2 which delays 20 and 259 who nearly tangle in avoidance. 175 is in the middle of a 3 abreast trip down the back straight and loses time. 84 fires 73 into turn 3 which sends Chris on a trip over the front of the car ahead of him. 129 spins out on the exit of turn 4 and the car stalls leaving him facing the oncoming traffic. Caution flag to move the car to safety. 84 is soon up to 2nd behind 381 and takes the lead in turn 4 with a big hit to the left rear corner. The contact sends Tyrone sideways but he holds the hit well. A further race suspension follows with 543 stuck in the turn 2 fence on two wheels with 343 going in with him. 84 heads the restart and takes off to the race win. The distinctive engine note from the car reverberating around the raceway. 259 puts a monster hit in on 501 and 515 entering turn 3. Frank catches Paul back up and re-passes. On the last lap 25 launches H229 into 551 going through turn 3. Courtney ends up stuck up the fence. 259 lines up 515 for a last bender but doesn't follow it through and slows it down entering the turn. That's all folks. Back from Bradford 👍

Final Focus: 87 leads away. 283 and 501 lock together and head for the infield exiting turn 4 on lap 1. 242 spins it on the exit of turn 4 and creates a chicane for those following onto the home straight. 84 is rapidly coming through the field. 300 and 327 who are stopped in turns 1 & 2 bring out the caution flags. 36 leads the restart. 5 fires 259 and 498 into the turn 3 fence on the resumption. Exiting turn 2 on the following lap 20 locks together with 5 and they career across the track towards the infield. 73 lets rip with a big'un on 132 and 489 going into turn 3.

Final Focus: 132 leads away. The early laps are a feast of hard hitting action from the star men. 22 kicks it off with a set to with 212 in turn 3, followed by 464 v 543.

Another fine battle then ensues between 515 and 84 with some class hits. 120, 295 crash out in turn 2 with 87 colliding with the back end of the Goodwin car. 48 has kept out of trouble and moved to the front with 25 and 8 completing the top 3.
-
Consolation Catch Up: 128 leads away. A turn 2 track blockage with nearly the whole field piling up brings out an early red flag, and the requirement for a full restart. The race restarts with some big hits going back and forth between 551 and 48. 191 joins in with even harder hits. The 2 car snooker balls a trio of cars into turn 3 which leaves 172 and 327 stuck in the fence bringing out the caution. 484 heads the restart and is off like a rocket. 555 and 20 have it with some big hits between them for a couple of laps. 346, H124 and 48 subject 484 to a combined assault on his lead position. Wim Peeters comes out on top and sets sail for the win. 129 becomes stranded in turn 3 bringing out the yellows. A Netherlands duo now head the field with H229 in 2nd. 551 fends off attacks from 211 and 191. 20 gains the upper hand over JJ with another big hit in the closing laps. 555 puts a monster hit in on 191 entering turn 3 on the last lap. As they enter the home straight on the run to the flag Josh drifts it to the inside which forces the 555 car towards the kerb slowing his progress enough for 191 to keep the place.
