Margaret River- Another great success for the Limited Club.

Hi all,

Well the Limiteds travelled to Margaret River and put on another great show.
The 320's had 4 cars and there was 1 360.
We really appreciate the help we get from these guys to promote the sport of Sprintcar Racing by ensuring we get larger fields and put on a first rate show, so a big thanks to all you guys that came along, we hope you had a great time.

There was no major damage in any of the heats, we had a couple tag the wall but with no major components being damaged.

The track had a couple of dry spots and did rut up a bit by heat 2, but overall it really was a great track and the Margaret River club should be proud of their efforts to get the track so racy.

For the first time in my racing career we had a 4 wide salute, I was out of position 3 and keen to get the feature underway, but during the salute a small excursion into a puddle caused some drama with the 77 machine and into the infield we went to watch the feature.

The feature was underway and Michael Armstrong got the jump, however Ben Ellement set about going to the front and putting on a driving clinic, I would doubt even an open would have been quicker around the track.
Chris Ackland also was quick and Todd Davis came through the field with a great drive after being all adrift in the heats.
Gavin Davis also was quick in the feature until a small hose failure brought his night to the end.

The night had no low lights, it was just a great meeting with everyone performing well.
Gibbo had a night with a few engine dramas and we hope his luck picks up as he heads into the business end of the 320 season, time he had that number 1 stickered on his tail tank if you ask me, I was looking forward to actually having a good run with him, he has shown a clean pair of heels to me a few times and I was looking for some payback.

Highlights
Great track and a club that really appreciated the show we put on.
Darren Higgins took some advice before the feature and came out looking like a winner, just unlucky his front end felt unstable and he pulled in 3/4 of the way through.
Shane Webster had some good pace but lacked enough unleaded to finish the race.
The team 88 turned up with some great posters and hats and looked fabulous manning the bench in the local pub.
Martin Laughton, Lillian and Peter Morton organized another great meeting and worked tirelessly to ensure it was a success.

The only bad part of the night was the verbal crap after racing was complete, by a couple of members who think they can abuse officials, kind of makes the hard work of these officials not worth it, when they are gone so will our club be, think about that for a while before next meeting.

So folks it's off to Bunbury for World Series, we are racing on the Saturday night, heats will be split in 2 and we are guaranteed a 20 lap feature, so come on down and support our club the Bunbury car club, and the Krikke Boys promotion team.

Bad luck to Mick Doble who had a big dump at Geraldton, word is he has a new car almost ready.
By the way Mick, your parts are here this weekend, give me a call and let me know how you want them delivered.

Catch you all

Crabby.
