Bunbury This Weekend

Well most of us will be heading to Bunbury for the first opportunity to get some season points this Saturday night.
Shane Webster will be having his first run for the season and will be keen to test out the car since the rebuild.
Crabby will be running Annettes car again with Glen's motor so hope it all goes well as he needs a good meeting to get his mojo back before the title.
I expect all the usual Bunbury crew of the Davis's,Maskie,Ackers and Aldo will all be there and i'm sure Todd will be trying to pick up where he left off last time we were there.
Good luck to everyone thats going and don't forget to let Martin know you are.
I'll be thinking of you all while i'm at work and i wil see you all on the 4th at the next Fast Friday.

Weekend Wrap Up

Fast Friday 1
Well we didn't get a great turn out but still had some good racing.
Shane Maskell was quick and looks like he's a bit faster than last time we seen him.
Chris Dicker had his first run with the Limiteds and had a good night until i ran over his right rear in the feature.
Unfortunately Crabby's well documented engine woes continued with what we think is another melt down.Much to Annette's dismay.
I had a good night running the freshened motor winning both heats and the feature which included the 360's. A good night for the new sponsor to come down.
Chris Ackland was running the 360 for the night and was his usual smooth self.
So results overall were Chris Dicker third Shane Maskell second and Mike Armstrong first.
Bunbury Night 2
Compared to the night before we had one to forget only making one heat which we won.We broke a torque ball in hotlaps and missed the first heat. We made the second heat and picked up where we left off at Kwinana only to ,what we think,was to blow the diff towards the end of the third heat. That was enough for us so we packed it away.
Todd Davis was really fast in the new car and is going to be hard to beat especially at Bunbury.
Gavin Davis had engine dramas as well and packed it away early.
Chris Dicker was looking a little bit quicker after his first run last night. He's gradually getting faster and smoother as he get more laps under his belt.
Chris Ackland was not as fast as he usually is but no doubt has plans for the big nights later in the season.
Shane Maskell was quick again as well as Ian Dhu.
Aldo Vepoali is still finding his feet but will no doubt get quicker as he gets more laps.
So overall results were Chris Ackland third Shane Maskell second and Todd Davis first.
Well hope everyone has a good run at Bunbury next meeting and i'll see you all at Kwinana next time.
Catch Ya Mike
