P.O.R.C Race 9th September 2007

This track was the best course yet! It had everything… including some real speed over a descent time. The race was timed by a proper timing system.

The conditions were hot and dry so no complaints there! This track took both a high level of strength and technical ability to do well in. Line choice was kept to inside lines on every corner but not all were obvious.

Racing was good… just under 100 people turned up to race! After first runs Oli Burton and myself were the only ones on 46 seconds. The same was to be said after 2nd runs but everyone was creeping up as limits were broken. After a break between race runs all was to be done on 3rd and final runs.

On the final runs there were many faster runs being posted and now Ross Hamond had the fastest time on a low 46 second run. Oli Burton and Sam Shucksmith were also on low 46 second runs and I had a middle 46 run. I was 2nd with Alistair Gubins closely behind with a 47.

More tracks like that please!
