I just re-counted. Whether I stacked them in 4's, 5's, 8's or 10's, those round golden nuggets are definitely £80 and that's definitely an F3.

Please note, in the event of revocation from superior powers - NO REFUNDS!

Well done fella!

Lol the guy in my race seemed to find somewhere and that was always into the back of my car putting me into last place lol

But in all seriousness, I had a great day although I will be the first to say I suck on astroturf but would love another chance to maybe not suck as badly he he.

Really? You hardly ever race and you managed to win your final over 3 legs! You don't suck, you are just out of practice!

Fair comment, I'll take a look at it tomorrow evening if I go to the track, and address it as required. I liked the bump during quali, it makes you cut in to the corner late, and if you do hit it it upsets the car nicely, but obviously an issue for finals.

I agree with you as well. How about a compromise, a pneumatic lump. (That is in no way connected to the third channel )

barry you may struggle to get the bump down I thumped hell out of it when we extended the track think only way is to lift track and remove some mud and relay.

Default I thought TC drivers moaned!

Great Series guys and well done to all the tracks and reps that help run the series over the year

After an upsetting start to the year for me and my lad due to very poor attitudes from some racers we stuck at it and the series was really turned around for us! Ignoring most of the comments as I think nearly all has been said I do agree that tougher penalties should be enforced during the race day, ( I.e stop and go's) some of the driving standards witness this year has been terrible and I think this would soon be stamped out, with regards to things said on the rostrum you only have to ask a couple of people to 'leave for the day' before again everything goes quiet!

Someone said it a few posts back this is toy cars! We all want to win but most including myself have to except that we are there to make up the numbers enjoy the day, relax and have fun!

This was my first year at the EOE and there are many memories i will want to forget but we will be back next year

Cheers guys!!
