charlesx Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Thanks Teamredracing for the good and speedy round. Sounds like this track did not like the Subarus. That's racing. Congrats to the podiumites. Regards Chas Le Breton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamredracing Posted January 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Pics Here. Unfortunately Chas's Suby had a classic ninco hop when the thottle applied . This wasn't a hill jump. Next the Historics. Cheers Craig Quote Craig "You can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

kalbfellp Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) IMO that is the appeal of this event,so many different tracks, surfaces and conditions. Much like the WRC itself! Now to add some snow to one of the tracks! Edited January 20, 2016 by kalbfellp Quote Phil https://www.hobartminiaturecarclub.com/ Email Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teamredracing Posted January 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) Ok gentlemen , heres the last stage for for Minto Rally Park. Or will it ????. Historics Stage 1 Congrats to : OTFS , Peter Gunn and CharlesX . The one that surprised me here was Chas's Scalex version . Really nice car to drive was a force against the MSC's . Top 4 cars all in the 20's in lap time. Stage 2 Congrats to : OTFS , CharlesX and Gas41t. 2 Stages and a new contender for a podium this time. Rossko's Ford had a blinder in this one. Those Scalex Fords still pushing. Again we had 7 cars in the 20's. Track was well and truley rubbered by that time. Overall Results Congrats to : OTFS , CharlesX and Peter Gunn All up the cars went well . Even those down from the pointy end . To get 23's around my track isnt a bad time. The Escort of Boss302 even managed a fast time of 23.012 but the raised braid section was its achilles heel.The 2 Fiats ( Corey and Mitchell ) weren't fast but managed average times of 24's . Anyway had fun with this proxy , the cars I find on my track are getting better and as Phil stated it is good with the difference of tracks, track surfaces and the conditions . Got to say mine will put up different times in warmer months to the colder. For some unknown reason we've found starting fairly early in the morning will give different times by the afternoon. Anyway thanks again to Gaz for the pics and marshalling. Can always count on you Gaz to be there. Really appreciate it Cheers Craig Edited January 21, 2016 by teamredracing Quote Craig "You can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time”.

gazza Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 You sure know how to borrow a car Mel!

teamredracing Posted January 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Just watching that vid. Its weird watching yourself and knowing where the you started to loose a bit of momentum from trying not to come off through those 11 laps and have a clean vid. If you listen hard , around the 2.00 min mark at the roller door end of the track , down in the gully I actually hit the wall without coming off . I then had to get the momentum up again and concerntrate to get back on track. The esses down the bottom of the track , before the start / finish is another section of the track where you have to get that rhythm to get you a good time. It only takes a little mishap to put you off and screw you times up. That whole middle section is where the raised braid is and will be taken up and the slot recessed and rebraided .

miveson Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Series results updated.... Our series leader and runner up both had shockers compared to previous rounds. The biggest mover and shaker is OTFS who rockets up a massive 4 places Mitchell let the side down with a placing that didn't replicate the lovely sequence from rounds 1-3, however Boss continued his wonderful sequence of results. Betting has been suspended on a finishing place of 15 for Round 5. To offer some encouragement my mini from last year finished dead last each and every round and by a considerable margin and you are already doing better than the mini ever did. The overseas entrants Charles, Peter Gunn and Phil are all biting at the heels of the leaders.
