Re:2008 Round Three Midford Combe - 2008/08/21 18:07 Thanks for all the updates Alan. The practice times make very interesting reading and it's hard to predict a winner. Stating the obvious I guess it will be the car that's most driveable rather than the quickest over a single lap.
I can't wait for the race weekend and thanks to Gary for making such a long journey to assist with the event, that's dedication to the hobby for you. Maybe next year Gary will build a car for himself and join in the fun. (I tried to convince him to do so at the last Wolves event).

Re:2008 Round Three Midford Combe - 2008/08/21 19:18 Thanks for posting the qualifying times Alan I don't think anyone would have put money on my car nipping in front of Graham's - least of all me! Fingers crossed for the race.

By all means send the snaps (or just links to them if you like) - happy to post on your behalf.

Re:2008 Round Three Midford Combe - 2008/08/22 00:27 Fantastic stuff Alan! What a competitive group of cars. The first 10 are within roughly .2 of a second of each other! Looking forward to the race this weekend.

Re:2008 Round Three Midford Combe - 2008/08/22 16:53 Thanks John for posting the pics for me.

I've taken individual hi-res shots of the cars which I'm putting on my website this evening. I'll post a link when they are complete.

Regards

Alan

PS Track lightly cleaned, (we don't want to get rid of that rubber do we.... ), controller repaired...(don't ask)...all now ready for Race Day tomorrow.

Re:2008 Round Three Midford Combe - 2008/08/22 20:47 Alan,

Great pictures. I especially liked Dave's over steering BRM. I'm looking forward to seeing the results of Saturday's race. Just for the record, my Lola's country of origin is the USA.

Cheers,

Jim
