2wd Qualifying Round 1.
As we settled down into our undercover pitting area, the changing conditions outside for once didn't make any impact on the racing. We quickly adapted to the idea of racing indoors during the outdoor season however on the track some drivers were struggling to adapt to the freshly laid astroturf. One driver described the surface as being so grippy that even the marshalls were grip rolling. One certainty however is that on a track like this there can be no home advantage - the surface and layout being completely new to everyone present.

2wd Qualifying Round 2

The second qualifying round had gone to Paul Bradby initially, however his glory was short lived as his 14 lap time was incorrect due to a 15-second start lap which had occured when Bradby triggered the loop on his late journey to the start line. Instead it was Kevin Lee from Inside line racing who took the round nearly two seconds ahead of Darren Bloomfields round 1 TQ time.

2wd Qualifying Round 3.

The track certainly hasn't been agreeing with last weekends oOple Invernational winner Neil Cragg, who sits 2nd overall in the championship currently but would have to TQ and win both here at Silverstone and at the final round in Kidderminster later this month, if he was to be in with a chance of knocking leader Lee Martin out of the top spot. Neil looks as though he'd be far more comfortable driving around the dirt surface in the pits.

In qualifying round three Elliott Boots quite literally stormed out of nowhere to take the round win, just a fraction of a second away from a 14 lap time.

The track.
The Silverstone crew have planned a national meeting quite unlike one we have seen before. Usually the off-road nationals held during the outdoor season are at outdoor venues on tracks with which we are familiar, however although we have raced previously at an outdoor track in Silverstone, this years national was announced to be on an indoor track. In fact few details were available of this track which no-one had seen or heard off and rumours of its existence circulated in the months running up to this weekends national.

The dirt surface of the equastarian centre was too soft to use as a track surface, so the team used primarily an astroturf surface set out with some constructed jumps and features. The grass-turfed corner, tabletop jump and carpetted areas added variety into the mix of surfaces at this venue.

The rostrum was professionally constructed	Race control has been built from breezeblocks and finely finished with cherrywood.

	Matt Owen of Silverstone club explained the sequence of events which lead to us racing at this venue. Matt: We had an outdoor track which we put a lot of effort into but unfortunately we couldn't deal with the landlord. Matt loves to be photo'd We found this place when we were looking for a venue to host the Petit RC earlier this year. We basically said it's not big enough, and they showed us the bigger room next door (this equestarian). It was too cold at that time of year to hold the petit race, but over a couple of beers we decided to apply to hold a national event here. We'd hosted some good events over the past couple of years which had been successful, so we went with the concept and applied for a national without having a track yet prepared. With our experience putting on the previous events the team felt confident that the national would be a success. We had to swap dates with Kiddy because there was already an event planned here for that date, so we booked for this weekend but then found out that the local hotels were booked up due to another event being held nearby. The site propietor said this was no problem as there are dorms available on-site, which racers were able to book for a competitive fee. There were some concerns about people getting upset about a national event being held at a track which technically didn't exist, but we went with the concept and our experience and here we are today. We hope that we haven't offended anyone in the process and that everyone enjoys the race we've organised. The club usually run Tuesday evening races in the hall next door, which this weekend is being used for a weights competition. The club nights have proved to be a great success and we look forward to seeing this popularity increase over the coming months.

A final leg 1

Elliott Boots lead them off from the pole position and was instantly away - with Bloomfield and Kev Lee in tow. For the first couple of laps things kept fairly close up front with Bloomfield pushing hard to stay with Elliott.

Elliott Boots was on a mission and was now pulling away from the rest - whilst everyone else looked to be driving on the edge, Elliott seemed in full control and didn't ease off as he took the jumps with perfect precision.

A mistake from Bloomfield allowed Kev Lee to close in and after looking for a way past jumped big to the corner tabletop and the pair went side by side. The inevitable collision occured and it was Kev who came off worse - and instead of gaining second he was now on his roof dropping down the order.

Elliott came through for the 14th lap on his own - a victory lap as it were - so far ahead was he by now. Bloomfield came in second after the battle with Kev Lee earlier didn't slow him too much, 4 seconds off the 14 lapper.

A final leg 2

Pole man Elliott 'DiCaprio' Boots leads them round the first corner - my goodness he was quick.

Elliott lead the race away and held an extending lead for the first few laps before a grip roll error saw him drop down into 2nd place. Kev Lee took up the lead but Elliott was hot on his gearbox, pushing for an error.

2nd 3rd & 4th - try to keep up with Elliott - lap one!	After an error - Kev Lee took over the lead from his Kyosho team mate.

Kev raced hard but couldn't make it pay, and a sneaky underpass from Elliott saw Kev drop down into 2nd place. Elliott was away, gaining time lap by lap to build up a 7+ second lead. Kevin was pushing hard to catch up but some grippy errors saw him struggle to keep up.

2nd 3rd & 4th - try to keep up with Elliott - lap one!	After an error - Kev Lee took over the lead from his Kyosho team mate.

Kev jumps high - Elliott goes low	After several laps Elliott finally got his chance - taking the inside over the grass and took the inside round the tabletop for the lead.

No-one could challenge Elliott and as he chucked in another 14 lap time - even faster than round one - he crossed the finish line to take the 2nd leg and with it, his first 10th National win. Kevin followed through in 2nd place to make it a Kyosho DB1 1-2 in leg and Tom Cockerill slid his Schumacher Cougar SV2 into the third spot.

A Final Leg 3

Elliott stormed off from the start line and was never seen again, he was well away. The battle was for 2nd place - any one of 7 drivers in this race could make it onto the podium from the last leg, so the pressure was on. Lee Martin and Kev Lee pressured Darren Bloomfield for 2nd place, Lee made an error and dropped back which left Darren in Kevs hands. Kev was pushing hard and looked every possible way to make a pass. The two cars were close but professional, a brief connection between the two saw both cars on their lids but Darren came away in 2nd place and Kev never quite caught up to him.

With Neil Cragg missing out on taking TQ at this meeting, Lee Martin was the 'Champion Elect' whatever that means - basically unless Lee punches a referee at the last round of the championship then no one can now challenge his points lead. Neil Cragg had to TQ and win here today to even stand a chance. The BRCA don't want it to be announced that Lee has taken the 2012 2WD series until it's actually official after the series is completed - so for now we shall refer to him as 'champion elect'

But between you and me - Lee has won the 2012 2WD BRCA Championship. (Allegedly)

Sunday August 5th - 4wd

After a comfortable night in the on-site dorms and an early start to work on the previous days report, we rolled up at the track just as drivers briefing was dispersing. We caught up with some of the drivers to capture their response.

Drivers Briefing:

Anonymous: I really wish microphones would be used at drivers briefing, surely the whole point of a drivers briefing is to inform everyone at the venue of details of the event, do's and dont's, safety etc. It's good to get everyone there in one place but you still miss things that are said. The microphone is there to be used; please use it. This would be better for everyone, for instance non racers in the pits who may need first aid! :)
This was sent in by an anonymous racer who wished not to be named and as professionals we cannot reveal his, her, or their identity.

Weird!	Special Friends. Joe is increasingly man-friendly

Jim can't believe what Damo keeps inside his shorts.	Special Friends.

Qualifying Round 1

Neil Cragg took round one despite a good effort by Ellis Stafford to challenge Neil's time. Previous days winner Elliott Boots was looking fast but took the front of his car off in a grip-roll incident and that was the end of his round one.

Danny McGee took the second round - storming it with the first 16 lap run of the day. Most drivers were running narrow front (2WD) tyres on the front - but with Danny TQ'ing with the standard wide Schumachers up front, some were reconsidering their options.

Lee Martin made it a Tamiya 1 - 2 in round but things were tight at the top and there was nothing between most of the top ten.

Extra Curricular Activities

Throughout the weekend here at Moulton College, R/C racing wasn't the only competition on the agenda. In the stables next door we discovered some very strong people lifting extremely heavy weights. Referee Dave Kirkham kindly explained a little about their activities. The weights are scored in three categories - deadweights (pictured), squats, and benchpress. We don't know what squats are but that's probably for the best, and when we discovered that benchpress were part of the competition we had to take it an oOple step further. Powerlifting winner Ben Banks kindly stepped into our aromatic equestarian for a few minutes to lift the lightest (but most wriggly) weight of the event.

Dave Kirkham posed for this photo just to shut us up.	The judging panel nearing the end of the event.

A Final Leg 1.

Poleman Neil Cragg lead the guys around with Lee Martin hot on his heels. Neil held the lead for a few laps but a grip roll saw Lee Martin move into 1st place. Neil didn't drop back though and was hassling Lee for the lead. The chase stepped up as the two lead cars drove almost side by side down the straight, and Neil pulled the perfect move coming around the slabbed corner, moving smoothly into 1st place. Lee prepared to hammer back onto his line but couldn't quite pull it off.

Paul knew he was clearly the quickest guy in the final and cooly sat in 2nd place for 4min 30sec, taunting the leader. Mathew wasn't able to hero the triple jump and on the last lap as he went single-single-single, eyeball Paul monstered over.

A final leg 2

The second leg of the A kicked off with Cragg and Lee Martin pulling a small gap back to Danny McGee in third. Danny put in some hot laps to catch the leading pair and it was now a three-way battle up front with Cragg still in charge.

Coming over the 'triple tabletop jump thing' Cragg caught the side slightly which flipped him and dropped in right down the order as the Marshall did his best to right the TQ man. Lee was now leading but McGee was on a mission and closing right up on the back of Lee's car as the pair circulated for several laps. Coming round the corner onto the main stright Lee went wide and Danny made the most of the opportunity to take the inside line and go out wide on the exit. Lee looked to try and take a much tighter line onto the straight but it didn't pay off as Lee clipped the pipe and rolled.

Kyosho UK's Mick Craddock came to help prepare Elliott's Kyosho 8th buggy for the Euros in Austria which start the day after this meeting finishes! Good luck in Austria Elliott.

A final leg 3.

Lee kept close to Neil from the start line, Nathan waters was soon up to 3rd place. Top two pulled away slightly. Neils lead was just a fraction of a second, the two cars barely visibly seperated on the track. Lee was pushing harder in the last minute of the race, he pushed too hard and rolled coming onto the triple jump. Lee was back on his wheels quick but Cragg now had some breathing space. Lee charged hard to catch up, and closed the gap once again. As the pair rode the single jump beneath the rostrum Lee went for a jump-past but made contact with Cragg. This didn't pay off for Lee and he was unable to make it through. If Lee had managed to pass Neil in this manoevure he would have been penalised due to the contact on over-jumping, however if he'd jumped past without contact it would have been an acceptable move.

Close battles throughout.	Lee and Neil enjoyed the close competition

The error didn't stop Lee from trying again however and Lee attempted a smooth move coming over the triple jump. This time he tumbled into the track marker and needed guiance from a marshall to get back onto the racing line. Neil now had the track to himself to cruise down the straight to take the 3rd leg and overall win at the event.

As far as we are aware, Neil would have to TQ and win the 6th round of the 4wd national series just to be able to share the trophy with 'Champion Elect' Lee Martin.

Lee Martin 2nd - Neil Cragg TQ & 1st - Danny McGee 3rd

This win keeps the 'dream' alive for Cragg - taking the TQ and Win here still gives him a chance to claim something from this season - although the best he could do would be to go equal on points with series leader Lee Martin, effectively tying the championship and being joint champions of the 4WD series. The final round at Kidderminster should be an interesting one that's for sure!
