This beats the hell out of the recent 69X romp at Montjuic.
After being kamikazed by Jethro, my BRM was a little wobbly but I soon adapted. I chased Sinister Clive for the longest time but couldn't make inroads. Robert was next down and closing but once on my tail, couldn't seem to administer the coup de grace. As RF notes above, his engine was a bit off-song. As the finish neared, I had hopes of a P6 placing but the H-16 gave it up on the pit straight with but a handful of laps to run. At least it was a short walk back to the pits.
