Mixed w/end for us really. Had a 1st and 2nd place with the Bernard Thuner entered Lola T70 Mk 3 but our other T70 was only a reserve so dispite qualy-ing 5th we had to start from the back of the grid for race 1 66th on the grid and were behind the 2 mini marcos'. they were lapping a minute down on the pace car so by the time we crossed the line to start were nearly a lap down. Managed to finish 6th hough
Then for race 2, we were on the front row as they use your fastest lap time for grid posn. On the out lap the battery packed up and we lost all power. 3rd Varley we've had let us down now, and as it meant starting from the back again for race 3 the drivers decided to scratch their entry. So we had a wander around and left the 2 youngsters on the team to run the other car in the last race. Chased the 917 all the way to the finish line. Oh well, I'm happy as I built the engines in both cars and they came away in one piece, so a result for me.
Saw an HB in the car displays on the Crashbox and Kickstart stand form here in Devon.
Glad you had a good time. There were som awesome cars to see. We had the Howmet Turbine car in our group and it was quite scary to watch.
Roll on 2010.
