It was great being back at my old stomping ground, this time with cars that were actually properly screwed together and a modicum more skill than when I last raced there!
Credit goes to all who travelled a fair distance (complete with their AMB system - CVMCC members now covet radio-based timing tech!) to get there, notably Mick, Derek and William (whom I last saw supposedly following me to the Valley Hotel, instead following Ed towards the M1...), Ed, Pierce (who did very well to get his B4 round a 2wd unfriendly surface), and the organisers, Stephen (his brainchild), Henry, Jim and Fiona, and all the other CVMCC members who supported the event. Kudos to Aaron for being so darn talented and winning the 4wd title, and to Will, who would have put his CR2 on the podium if he'd run it in 4WD - astonishing!
One thing I note from the 2wd podium - definitely no shortage of hair there...
