May 6th
A
series of hitches in the opening division meant our estimated division start time
of 10:00 was actually 11:00. This delay coupled with a grey overcast sky
and a blustery wind made for a long morning. The racing however was
exciting with good changeovers once Stan had got used to handling Breeze.
Racing against the Sheffield Speeders in the second race of the day was
made all the better because John and Millie were racing against Linda and her
Jack Russell. Terrier against terrier, excellent stuff. The late
start however meant we finished just in time for lunch. Today the Hillam
Hot Dogs had hotdogs courtesy of Phil.
We also had the usual array of sandwiches, salads, quiches and cakes all washed
down with some of John's wines. After a suitable period of time we were in
for starters. Foster and Finnegan were joined by Rocky from the Crazies
and Murphy from the GoFours, Laura had also brought Poppy along to give her a
taste of racing. Although Poppy did well initially she soon thought
looking for Dad was a better game. Hey ho, we've all been there in some
form or other, we've no doubt Poppy will make the grade and join us at some
point in Division. The afternoon division racing was just as good as the
mornings racing and we finished the day with a respectable third. Results
