I can’t claim today’s spiffing result was due to genius wheel-smithing or Adrian Newey like setup. I hit the weather jackpot in round 1 which flattered my overall performance quite a bit. But having stood out in the pissing rain for 20…
After the last, rather disasterous outing at Tivvy, A bit of a confidence builder was what I wanted out of my club championship visit to the old home track. I was up for being the race director as well as driving, so…
