I thought that big slightly ill-behaved Vette was proper fun to slide around in,but it was clear Bob had this one in the bank easily building his lead,it wasnt until very late on i noticed i was somehow in first,but not really my win there on pace...
Race two in the mighty Skyline from pole,but i quietly knew i wouldnt be arriving at T1 in the lead if Carlos hooked his Vette up properly,which he duly did
....the chase was on but where the Skyline had the advantages there was not really much i could do with it,despite the thing being so good at the final turns letting me close in,but the Vette pulled away so impressive down that straight,i was getting ready for the long haul and pounce when the Vette tyres go bad,which mine oh so certainly did in race one,but i got an early break at the final turn when Carlos went off,now i could fully use the twisty bit in the middle and pull away,lost concentration at T4(tight downhill left) and spun her around in true Lenno 911 fashion,recovered in time to just see a little swarm bearing down on me as we arrived to T5(uphill tight right),i think Carlos was going for the lead taking move and it went a bit wrong with us both off,i stayed calm and objective and pushed like buggery-oh for the rest of the race,excellent duels with Tom and finally with Bob for the lead,again the Skyline being so ferocious at thos final turns helped get the job done
.
Well done us few who were there,what we lacked in numbers we made up for with enthusiasim and some close racing
Many Thanks Thommo & Carlos &
