Moora- another great night.

Hi all,

Well Saturday night saw the limited club running it's only meeting at Moora this season.
We had 11 cars in total, 8 limiteds, 2 320's, and an open turn up, not a bad effort for the wheat belt track and a stinking hot day.

The track was a mud bath for engine starts, but by the first heat it was a hooked up race track and the pace was on early.

It was an all in heat race, and from the outset Mick Doble in the Fred Flinstone special was on a mission, he was fast from the green flag but had trouble holding off the modern day machines.
We had a couple of cars join the club during the night which was fantastic and it looks like next season we will grow in numbers again.

There was no real incidents all night, even though the racing was fast and furious, there was no quarter given and every pass was earned.

The feature race was the best race for passing we have seen this season, Mick (Fred Flinstone) Doble and Tim King swapped the lead several times each lap for the first 4 or 5 laps, when the dust had settled the Flinstone mobile had smoked the tyre and had to hold on just to finish, the final results being;
Tim King first
Mick McGuiness second
Anthony King third

Points for the night were;
Anthony King first.

Highlights for the night were;
Fred Flinstone, he was really on the pace all night and went home unbent, you have gotta be happy with that. Small motor, 1990's chassis and some of the oldest bits I have seen since the super mod days.
Tim and Anthony King look like they are ready for another State Title shootout.
Aaron Isuguchi was quick but still has to find the way around cars.
Mick McGuiness was fast in the feature.
Damien Joyce was getting the handle on it and he was so fast sometimes you were sure there were 2 of him out there.

Lowlights;
Gavin had some engine issues and missed every race, he already has his 358 in ready for Bunbury even after driving home and not arriving until midday Sunday, not a bad effort considering I am writing this Sunday evening.
The long drive home straight after the race.

So folks one last thing, don't forget to nominate online for Kwinana on the 12 March, it has to be in by this Wednesday evening.

Catch you

Crabby
