The prize is,as usual, a bottle of wine and somecleaning products.

It was held in aseeded knock out elimination formatsimilar to Drag Racing events. Firstheats were the best of three runs. Afterthe first heats it was sudden deathknockout elimination runs.Two series were run on the night withAndy Peters, using Darren Hodgson’sMGB, winning the first series and ScottMcGarry winning the second in his selfengineered MGB.After the series was run Darren’s MGBwas used as a benchmark vehicle forfurther R & D on other units. It seemedthat a lot of data was collected.I unfortunately missed Helen & BrynBaverstock’s Natter Night which wasattended by many members and someof his relatives from England (out hereto surprise him for his 70 th birthdayparty).
