F345's - Silverstone - Regional Championships
BIG, BIG thanks to ALL the South East Region drivers that attended this past weekends F345 Regional Championship at Silverstone RCMCC
 Hope you all had a good time and enjoyed the event, for some this was their first (but hopefully not their last!) experience of a 'National' type event. As at the Junior/Veteran/BF2C event a couple of weekends ago, a superb 'team' effort by all the drivers, mechanics, supports and helpers, with several very notable performances with SE drivers making Finals all the way up to the A Final for the first time in several years As well as individual 2 and 4WD Championships over the weekend there is a two-day Regional Championship, a points competition based on each days best performing F3, F4 & F5 drivers and I'm very pleased to tell you that the South East finished in a fantastic runners-up position to the mighty(!) Mid West Region, our best Regional performance in very many years. Thanks to all, here's to next year (I've warned the Mid West Rep. about next year!) and once again here's hoping you all had a good time. NB - Big thanks to both the BRCA and Silverstone RCMCC for laying on such a good event, as others have said the track is now SOOO much better than it was in it's former life and even the weather was very kind, that is unless you were a camper on Friday night  !

Was a thoroughly enjoyable weekend. Track was vastly improved from my last visit.
The south east team had a great atmosphere which made it all the more fun. Huge thanks must go to Steve for coordinating it all, and also for his work throughout the year. Also big thanks to Mike Williams for all his help over the weekend and the loan of various option parts to try. Really improved my car each round, just a shame my driving didn't really do it justice. oh, and thanks to Welliott (as he is now known!) for giving me a lift! And nice one on a cracking drive under pressure in the final (trophy hunter!). Bring on next year as i think i still qualify in one of the categories! ;-)

Steve, did you find out the overall points by any chance? Just wondered how close things were. Presuming mid-west walked it by some margin. Just wondered how close we scraped 2nd!!

ha ha! yes, Friday was damn cold.
We also went the M40 route - Error!! I seem to remember when i did regionals there a couple of years back that is was a couple of minutes to the M40, but the sat nav took us 12-13 miles down the road to join it? Maybe i'm just losing my memory in my old age as Alec suggested!

Big thanks to SE crew for the warm welcome for SteveB, Mac and myself.
Also big thanks to Mike Williams, Dave Poulter and co etc. for the pointers, thoughts etc. Yes I know Poulter thinks we're mad with the staggered ribs. I will be trying the over drive with the staggered ribs at some point. Gutted I broke both cars in the finals, 4WD particularly as I'd started to improve - 2WD, well let's just forget that one.Yup when we arrived Saturday morning I thought how cold when I saw the temp on the car!

As you rightly suggest we were some distance from the ever mighty Mid West but don't know how far in front of third we were. To be perfectly honest don't really care! One point would have been enough for me Well done once again to EVERYBODY involved, excellent team effort by all
