Charity Event at Kames 13 Nov 2010

With Gales and Heavy rain into Friday evening, expectations were not high for a dry Saturday. However, the morning dawned, cool, bright and clear. The atmosphere on arrival was very laid back. Nobody seemed to be getting het up regarding getting things going.
My goal for the day was to break the 100 second barrier.
First practise run was okay with a time of 104 secs, second practise run improved at 100.8 secs - getting close to target. It was fun watching some of the rally cars competing who were driving most corners sideways, or if they got it wrong, going for a spin (there were quite a few !)
After lunch, 1st timed run, which is the video below
My fastest time of the day - 98.3secs, so target achieved., You might catch the cry of success at the end of the video. The final timed run of the day didn't see any improvement - 99.1secs, but I knew it was a bit ragged.
However, the shock of the day was I won my class !!
So, a great day, dry weather, but very cold, and a good turnout to support John Frew's Charities.
Can't wait for next year.
Now it's rebuilt time. So future posts for work being carried out on the car.
