was a good day really good turn out I had an nightmare not finishing one heat because the sxx finally died. Did not do to bad tho in the final doing 16 laps with a 10.5 motor out of the truggy and considering I had a 40 sec first lap due to being wiped out

Just shows that running race control is a little more difficult than just sitting at a computer!

Rog is however looking a lot better than this morning thankfully.

Turns out half the problem was we shouldn't have been using that PC in the first place - we have a new one that everything is set up for but Rob and I didn't know that and picked up the wrong one......

We are going to have a little meeting next week for those not doing the Southport Regional, which I'll run but Rog will supervise, so I can get some more practise in. Learning how it all works with 62 people, no printer and already running late isn't the best idea!

Was a very good day, shame I left my front end outside the race control fence. Problems aside the solutions were workable and everyone should have been happy.
