Hi Guys. Sticking with the new race report format introduced last event (essentially just giving the statistics without a lot of talk), I'm just mentioning a few things about last night's event.
First of all it was great to have been able to introduce Peter de Montbrun - Mr. Scalextric of T&T - to FRC. Peter paid us a short visit and was able to test a few of my cars along with one of the FRC Porche Cup machines and seemed to quite like our facility. So Peter, you're always welcome at FRC and I look forward to seeing you in a competing role in the future.
Secondly, it was great to have a turnout of ten drivers, something that produced a lot of competitive fun with the added bonus of marshals.
Lastly, I thought I would mention that in the second LMP race Ramesh fell fowl of our stop-and-go penalty rule which demotes a driver to last place if he fails (or runs out of time) to do a penalty before the end of a race. Ramesh actually crossed the line first, however the penalty placed him last and moved everyone one place up from where they actually finished. Hard luck Ramesh, but I'm sure you won't make that error again.
Those points being made, its your chance to use your own words to paint a picture of the evening by commenting below.
The results
Congratulations to the winners.
Next event's classes: Ferrari Team Challenge - 6 races @ 30 laps, Rally Car - three 5-lap stages per car (1 car at a time). The FTC class is a big challenge and is open to everyone as the cars are supplied by FRC. Its the only FRC class where the team is bigger than the individual. Likewise, our Rally Car class is unique in that drivers do the stages one at a time, however you've got to bring your own cars. Don't forget to see the updated fastest times for the FRC classes to know what the benchmarks are for your cars. Also of interest are the updated class average qualifying times.
See you on the circuit...

but never the less, I still had a BLAST with the night of FRC's Fastest Classes
