Had a good days racing today. Started off alittle wet but turned out dry in the end. I even had a round with sticks and won the fourth round:eh?: . The final was very interesting like always for Bury Metro. Also it was a great result for Kyosho and the RB5 as this car has still not had the respect it deserves! I just hope things will change for next year.

Yeah, from all the drivers I'd like to thank the people who make it happen, Roger, Eric, and the rest of the club people who really do the work (you know who you are) for a good series.

Just as an aside, anyone who has competed in the series who wants to go to the EOS finals needs to contact me ASAP. A signed entry form needs to be with me this week as I'll be taking the entries to Stotfold for submitting.

Anyone who later decides they want to go will be in the hands of the 'Reserve-list-lottery"!

Today I was pitting the the cabin with Damo and Stu Evans and it was very interesting to say at least. They showed me that they love the hobby and they dont get bothered if the day doesnt go so well. They dont even change the set ups on there cars where ever they go. I cant understand this part as I change my car every run to make it better for the conditions of the day and track. I even had a conversation with Damo about too much grip on the front end of his car and I said cut some spikes off the outer edge of his tyres but I got it in the neck. Thats money that is' he said. Just found it hard to believe really as I am totally different. Thanks very much guys for having a very different experience.:D

Yeah good laugh - Enjoyed the North West series as it's a nice chilled affair on a couple of great tracks. I'm really pleased that after throwing the regional win away at least twice on the last laps this year I finally won one - I was thinking I was jinxed. :confused:
