Good Evening lads, i know you are all anticipating a great race with pictures and reports etc. And i promise they will be coming.
Unfortunately i am down on day 3 of a nasty bout of influenza more commonly known as the flu.
Once i am back on my feet i will try and get this round underway and reported on.
Hopefully you can bear with me , as i am not a pretty site at the mo ent.
All the best
Bob

Hi Lads.
More bad news I'm afraid. One of our members has taken seriously ill and is having surgery tomorrow . Due to his circumstances it means another member will be picking up his workload which eliminates 2 of our drivers.
Now being the last race on the schedule, we have a couple of choices.
Lets get Christmas behind us , finish the series here and mail the cars back to Allan.
Or if you prefer i can simply send the cars back to Allan now and you can consider the series done. I will leave it to the consensus. So please let me know what you wish to do.
All the best
Bob

I am more than happy to be given the added time and get this done.
Carmans situation was totally unexpected and we are a tight little group that look after each other on and off track, so its important to us that we look after our brother at this time .
Thanks Mike

Well lads i thank you for your patience. The seasonal crush is behind us, my driver numbers are up with Carman recovering nicely after his visit to the Hospital.
I have taken today to clean and check the track and timing system out, all works top notch.
Tomorrow i will be running the qualifications , so keep your eyes on this thread.
As for the actual race line up, i will judge the groupings by qualifications with the exception of a poor handling car with one fast lap.
I have found in these proxies a bad fast car can spoil a race for the other 2 cars in its group.
Anyway Panamericanna will be ran and the cars posted back to Allan for their final trip home.
Good luck to all and yes i will check each car before qualy for any issues.
All the best from Canfield Green

A little oil on my axle bushings if allowed would be great. Thank you and your team for hosting and good luck to all the builders.

Great news Bob, give that American Iron sled of mine (no.14) one last run and hope it stays in one piece after trying to break at the end of those long Canfield strats!
