BCL REGIONAL - Ledbury - great weather & good racing- 11 May 2009
Ledbury hosted the BCL/Border regional on Sunday 10th May and the weather was perfect for good racing. The overnight campers had a bonfire and Bar BQ and folks drifted off after midnight as a few hardly souls chatting till 1.00am. For the racing the Ledbury club used both their tracks the 1/8 dirt circuit and the 1/10 grass track so both sets of drivers had the tracks appropiate to their class.
With four rounds and finals the meeting finished around 5.00pm which was much delaid due to 1/8 track timing being plagued by not picking up some transponders but this problem did not effect the 1/10 class so a problematic loop wire was the possible cause. With three rallyX heats, one truggy and the 1/10 class ran a mixed truck heat along with separate 2wd and 4wd classes.
Apart from early 1/8 timing hiccup this was an enjoyable meeting run under a bright blue sky. Points will appear on Border League section on Race Chat see FORUM and pictures upload on link BCL LEDBURY IMAGES
