Hi Guys!
I have to say, what a great Meeting at Broxtowe Club Today!
We were fortunate enough, to finally be blessed with some nice Dry Sunny Weather allday, allowing us to get some Fantastic Racing in!
It was also good to see a decent Bunch of Hinckley Club Members/Racers Attending, or should I say, taking over the Pitting Area!
The Track itself, was of a similar Size & Style to the Kidderminster Venue(one of the Rds in our Regional Championships), but incorporating Astro-Turf throughout the Circuit!
This Size & Layout meant that it was pretty Tight & Technical, so very Tricky to extract a Clean Run over the 5 minute period.
Eventhough the Track was bone Dry & allowed us to use the usual Yellow MiniSpike Tyres allday, it was quite awkward to get the right Balance of the Car for each Run, as the Grip changed so much between Rounds.......Track Temperature & Sand lifting out of the AstroTurf in places etc etc!
All the People there were Friendly, the Racing was very Competitive & Clean, as well as we all had a good laugh!
