Narrogin wrap up.

Hi all

Well another meeting run and won, bit disappointing with the car count, only seven cars turned out, but it has been a long season and only one week since the state title.

Narrogin turned on a nice surface and as usual the guys were quick.

Shane Maskel took out the points on the night with Annette Crabbe taking out second.

Maskie was quick all night and was hard done by in the feature, having to start half a lap behind.
Annette was quick and had the most car speed but could not work out the tricky Narrogin turns, Shane on the other hand had them sussed and put the move on everyone in the turns.
Thanks to Grant Chisolm for turning up and having a run, since bining the JEI and hopping into a Maxim he has gone ahead in leaps and bounds, sounds familiar doesn't it.
Gavin Davis had a night to forget as did I, we both had problems, mine early and Gavin's late.
Into the feature and we finally had the 77 sorted and ready, Ed and Mick put a good setup into the car and we started off pole as the lowest point scorer of the night, we did not start a heat, Annette and Grant Chisolm were off 50m and Maskie was off 100 m.

I had to get some pride back so set about my mission to run Maskie down, with 2 to go I had Maskie and Annette in my sights, Maskie slipped by Annette leaving me to wonder how I was going to get by, but they pulled the white and the race only went 10 laps.
Would have been a great race if Maskie and I went off the same spot, but after my horror night I was just glad to get a run.

Thanks to Narrogin for another great night, we just enjoy getting out there and trying to work that track out, it is fast but tricky.

Well a couple of weeks off to get prepared for the big Easter meet in Geraldton, have not been back to Geraldton since the 2008/2009 season when we had a year there to forget, Gavin tipped the car over there for me and then the next meeting I had a mishap and tipped it over again, used several spares from Gavin and Norbert and got the car going for the next night and overheated, surely this time around we will get it right.

Be nice to give Mick a run on his home track, if we beat him in a heat we know we will have finally made it.

Catch you

Crabby.
