UKGPL Season 17 (2009) Clubmans Cup - Spa (1967) - Mar 1

[Michael Turner]

An enjoyable race - at least for the first few laps - with a reasonable qualifying postion and some respectable lap times. But a couple of spins, a SnG, a blown engine and (to cap it all) a disco due to a temperemental router (or maybe throttling by Pipex/Tiscali )put paid to any hopes of a points haul. Good practice for next Sunday though.
Congrats to Burt on a fine start to the season.

Great race at Spa, was bit annoyed my only qualifiying 4th with a 3:24 some good 6-7secs off my personal best being in 3:17s
Get good start make 1 place up on grid, then somehow, Tim loses it at Masta, and im up to 2nd.
Chasing Bernie was hard, and he was pulling away soo much, only till few laps later I find him in the pits for some reason and pass him on straight.
Then about 2 laps later, he passes me going down the long right hander on back straight, I decided to let him through, so I let off the throttle, only for him to veer off the track and into the hedge!

I then start my last lap, only for a off track incident/spin with 4 corners to go, Jack is close behind me and luckily I have my car infront of him to get my 1st win of the season!
Rolll on next race, and what a great start this is!

Bernie's inconsistancy cost him with lot of errors.
Pity for Bernie, could have had 1-2 I reckon for Soggies.
