A bit of sun boosted the entries nicely today. But even with 21 2wd buggies, the racing was really quite tight and competitive all day. Without much morning dew, the B7 was the obvious choice. Practice told me I had a responsive,…
Nice to get back to competition after my winter between jobs moment. It was bleeding freezing down Accomodation road, and weeks worth of rain fall made the surface like driving of a freshly buttered ice ring for much of the day, but…
