The FORCC crew were out and about again this weekend, for the 1st Round of 2WD and 2nd Round of 4WD of the Southeast Region BRCA 1/10th Off Road at Eden Park Raceway
In what may go down as the longest day of racing ever, our gang quickly got to grips with the track which was tricky in places with some tight turns, moguls and low grip on cobbled / concrete sections.
The dry conditions unfortunately made way for rain late in the afternoon just as the finals got underway. It made for some squirrely moments as cars began to pirouette down the straight and one false move meant losing track position.
A shout out to Callum for a blinding run in his final, what a great drive! Dave A for being the No.1 stand-in marshal (and for providing the Cornettos); Lloyd for not bricking it when in the lead (for once); Lochlain for some skilled driving in the wet and George for getting on the podium in his first ever wet race.
Commiserations need to go out to Shane – after some superb driving put him in the A, a re-jig of how the results were counted by race control meant that the overall qualifying positions were republished, bumping him into the B. The rain then came and well….. you can guess the rest. Let’s hope Rnd 2 is kinder!
Final Results 2WD:
A: Kyle 1st, James 6th
B: Callum 1st, Shane 5th, Dave A 7th
D: Lloyd 1st
E: Lochlain 1st, Dave W 5th, Jo 8th
F: George 3rd
4WD:
B: Lochlain 2nd
C: Dave W 2nd
A special thanks to Ed Kerry for helping George out at the end IYKYK 😉
