After a break of 3 weeks we finally came back together on the track we all took

our first LFS steps. ..Blackwood !!

Horsepower deliverer at service was the XFG..a front wheel driven little car.
Not so difficult to drive and so we had a  lot of beautiful battles.

The starting grid look like this :

1. Jyuetsch        
2. Rasta
3. Wellington
4. Hanziboy
5. Mumhra
6. UNICramer
7. Gnomie
8. SLO_Scatter
9. SLO_Knuckles

 

Hanziboy started off badly with a jump start and had to take a stop and Go penalty.
With all the drivers being very close on laps times, it  was almost impossible to
make up for that error.

The rest had a perfect start and were very close to each other during the race.
We had some very close but beautiful fair fights !!!

Rasta also in front had a gear problem and damaged his engine during
down shifting and lost a lot of horsepower. And was pray for the rest in the field
finally he had to give up.

Meanwhile Jyuetsch was unbeatable in front was was driving a way from the rest of the
field.. with Wellington, Mumhra, Cramer and Gnomie.
2 of them were in fuel problem :  Gnomie and Mumhra.
Mumhra decided to go easy on the revs and  lost a place to Cramer..
To make things worse they all had a collision at the end of the straight line.
Wellington, Cramer and Mumhra..which costs him even more fuel..

Gnomie decided to make a pitstop but makes an error in exiting the pitlane.
he crosses the pit exit lines taking some track hardware with him.  He get's the
standard 20 seconds penalty.

Meanwhile Flying boy Jyuetsch had all the bad luck of the day when he had to
give up due to some electrical problems.

Because of the collision mentioned before Gnomie was able to get back at Cramer.
Both very close to each other on the picture.
But this is without Gnomie's Penalty putting him in 3rd place.

Hanziboy was only able to come back at Knuckles and Scatter but with the technical
problems of Jyuetsch and rasta he made up four places ending 5th.

Scatter and Knuckles both drove a very stable race. ending 6th and 7th.
Mumhra made it to the finish line with only some fuel damps left in the tank.

Wellington driving a very strong race finishes 4th.
