Lower entry than expected but the weather and work has to be held responsible for most of the absentees.

The wind speed (20mph on the edge) always seem more on this hill than the times show, it flew more like 10 mph on a reasonably good slope.

Conditions were warm to start but as the front approached the temperature dropped, the air became damp and it was not a day to expect fast times.

8 rounds were flown, packing up just as the first drizzle appeared.

Congrats to Martin Gibbs who came from nowhere and took the FTD in round 6 with 49.86 secs.

Both Dave and Ron would have surpassed this time if we had not suffered from the dreaded stall/ flick thumb.

Again well done Martin, now string some good times together.

Scores as follows

1st   Ron Russell         Viking            6848

2nd   Ron Russell        Furio              6535.64

8th   Alistair S              Race M 2      5830.15 

Foamies were not raced, with only 4 models turning up and the early wind direction giving us a 50 metre long slope we decided against it.

Next time though.
