Hi All

Five starters for this round of Coupes and F1 on the big track.

Having Greg Erskine back from illness marshaling and James marshaling and on the clicker we set off to have a good time.

Well everybody held down the same place from the start to the 7th bracket when I then surrendered my 1 lap lead to Gregg who took full advantage of my poor run on White to nail me.

Joe was out early with big trouble and Stoo seemed to be having a less than ideal time.

My only consolation (if you can call it that) is that Gregg was using Matthew F's car which I had built some time ago and now is still undefeated on this track.

Darryl, Gregg and Stoo all had their moments in the sun and mixed it up a bit for the podium before finishing in that order with only a lap separating Darryl and Gregg.

I held down 4th all the way while Joe topped off a truly awful night for him by destroying again.
