Nice shots Martyn, didn't realise there was a zoo in the area of the track. By the way how is your arched bridge maid of , it looks like an inverted tyre.

Hey Craigo, it's a jungle out there. Camelback is a safari park.

 

The bridge is constructed using 12mm MDF with lots of slots routed in the underside. It took Rusell Powell several goes to get it spot on. During a lap, you cross it twice in one direction and once in the other.

 

we ran it in the direction that is slightly easier, as it's a proxy. during SRGB rounds, we run it in the slightly tougher direction, as the drivers should have a good feel for their own cars.

In my defence, both me and Dai did pretty badly on the stage I drove, and Keith and Phil are fairly honest blokes, Tey'll tell you I didnt get any special treatment. I don't think O've ever been so subdued winning anything before!

Well done on running (and surviving) the round Snurfy and crew. Massive undertaking.

 

Big congrats on the podium also Snurf. And to Dai and Beowulf as well.

 

Seems my Lancer is doing a good job of proving last year as the fluke I suspected it to be. But still fabulous to see photos on those great Welsh tracks.

 

Got a sneaking suspicion that someone is going to be mighty excited to see the militant badger in fifth spot. :)

 

Great round guys.

Computers. They'll never catch on.

In the sub competitions the Australian's ruined their perfect run to date. Manufacturers saw the French come to the front once again.

 

I also fixed an issue with R3 results where kalphellp was incorrectly allocated position 27 instead of 26.

Quite a few points clusters there. Will be interesting to see how they break up in the next round.

Forming a good idea of what my entry is like, now that car is fully run in. Competitive on fast open stretches, not a lot of drivetrain brakes, moderate in the twisties- perhaps Subi is a bit long. Nice result in last stage, just missed the chocolates.

Seems at each turn, when the dust settles, there is D.Dimas close by, normally just in front. :)

 

Well done on this marathon, Martyn; lots of laps, lots o' pikkies, lots o' pints - Trojan effort. Congrats also on your success, and Dai's.

Am happy so far. Keep Phil driving , from 16th to 8th and 4th over all , crappppp , I'm head for the top before the last stage . This may come tumbling down . Phil just keep driving , Martyn keep doing the gardening ^_^:lol: . Young Ben (Little Beowulf :P ) and grandpa(Devious Dave) will be happy with the results at this point . Thanks again Martyn and crew , looking to the next and final stage with anticipation and a bit of worry.

Cheers Craig

 

Dont worry Craig, if Keiths driving the next stage you'll be sure of a fair result, he was leading a couple of classes in SRGB 2013.....

 

Meanwhile enough chat about Sheep and Camels, it's the guys who do the milking for genuine Welsh Dragon butter you ned to look out for.........
