HSC 2016 Retro Series Rnd 9 - Flat Track - 08/10/2016
Posted: Tue Oct 18, 2016 12:17 pm
Back from a holiday in Noosa I was more than keen to get my trigger finger in action again and the first opportunity was the 9th round of the HSC Retro Series to be held on the Flat track.
A bit of a disappointing turn up with a few of the regulars being otherwise occupied but some good racing nonetheless on a well prepared track - a big thanks to James.
With 6 starters 2 heats of Coupes and F1's was the format and this is how it unfolded.
Coupes Heat 1
All the way win for me with my new car (see http://forum.ascra.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1249) whilst a close battle between Neil and Joe saw Neil prevail with a new personal best on this track. Joe struggled a bit and later found he had broken a solder joint on his car which was obviously not that helpful for his campaign.
Coupes Heat 2
All the way victory for Darryl here with Brad and James swapping the runner-up position when James relinquished 2nd spot whilst on the dreaded Purple and Black lanes.
Final Coupe Placings
Mark 180
Darryl 175
Brad 169
James 163
Neil 160
Joe 158
Darryl, Mark and Brad (L-R)
F1 Heat 1
Another win for me with Joe prevailing over Neil in his all the way 2nd spot.
F1 Heat 2
Darryl and James slugged it out on the same laps for the first 4 brackets until Darryl pulled clear followed by James and Brad.
Final F1 Placings
Mark 178
Darryl 173
James 168
Brad 163
Joe 159
Neil 155
