Supporting the FORCC Winter Series

Another great turnout for the FORCC Winter Series  with 39 entires across the 3 classes 😍.  Today was Round 5 of 6. The track was quite technical in places and people are still getting to grips with the new ramps and their slippery surface. As usual there were battles throughout the field and although I might be a little biased, I’m going to say that the cream of the crop was the 4WD A Final which saw nose to tail racing between Matthew, Dave, Mark and myself in all 3 legs. Ultimately Mark came out on top after the 3 legs so congratulations to him but I don’t begrudge him the victory since… Oh who am I kidding…

Congratulations Mark…

Thanks to Nes and the girls for excellent bacon rolls and Jacket potatoes once again. They were awesome 😊.

I took delivery of the brand new Schumacher Cougar KD on Friday and thought it would be rude not to give it a little track time today.

Schumacher Cougar KD

Given that it is not really intended for dry high grip tracks I wasn’t really sure what to expect but boy does it generate rear end grip… I only used it in practice today but with a little fettling of the weight distribution the car felt really good so it will be back on Wednesday to stretch its legs in race conditions… 😀
