Too late on Sunday night; I'll write some blurb tomorrow! What a great weekend of racing. I had the video camera on the car in both races; click to see the stills.

Qualifying
Learnt the circuit

Race 1
Three abreast for the first three corners (click here to see the video of this first lap).  Stayed on the road and learnt from Madgwick how he stays ahead of someone a bit faster. Spun on the last corner trying a last lunge on Madge, let Burnham and Marshall get by, Drat. Finished 14th

Race 2
Stayed on the road. Deployed the lessons learnt from Madgwick on Chris Bailey. Had fun. Finished 11th.
