Results forthcoming, as I just got the little ones down for a nap

[tannat]

Showing the form at Silverstone he exhibited in the last TRD1 BTCC, Team EGG driver Luffield took the checker a comfortable 7+ seconds on his nearest rival. 2nd and 3rd were the Alfa duo of Peter Vuko and Jon Brown, separated by just over 3 seconds. Less than 4 seconds adrift of the latter Alfa came the second Team EGG entry of Tannat, followed by the returning Vauxhall of racer69, the MG of BM, and the Vauxhall of Chris Finch....

REALLY tight race, guys, and a healthy grid. Hope it continues til the end.

We've all done a good bit of offline racing on the forum, but the story of this race is in the fast lap times. Potentially, I think there could have been 5 different winners here, but as JonBrown stated above, consistency is of great importance..

GOOD RACE GANG!

7--ChrisFinch------Vauxhall----------27:23.64------1:18.66

I posted the incorrect fast lap time for Chris Finch. His fast lap for this venue was 1:16.36...

But this does provide me with the opportunity to point out he dropped his fast lap time over 2 seconds from the rain round held here earlier in the season using full setups.

Nice run, Chris

[Peter Vuko]

Well done Luffield! I lapped mainly in the 13's but there were laps where I lapsed ino the 14's. A good close race.

5--Racer69-------Vauxhall----------25:52.71-------1:13.71

All good, except a drove a Peugeot in this race

[chrisfinch]

Thanks tannat.

Well, obviously I'm hoping BM decides not to take part at Brands Hatch, so i can go for 4th in the championship

[BM]

I dont think that'll be happening mate!
