Diesel Goodyear Last Weekend . Apptitude to edit pictures is negllegable , unfortunately . Lot of random shots - Camera Speed makes catching a catch impossable apart from By Chance .
Dismal result for Moir , First Race was first run for that ETA , Second was a bit better , but a cut off off second stop , where I woke Up & BELTED the PROP , rather than flicking it , got a Two Hit Start .
Think cooking up required the fourth restart , of the TWO Compulsary in 100 Laps . Not to worry , was gliding well and the Roy Summersby was bring it in quick and consistant , albeit from 1 1/4 lap out
with no elevator ' speed brake ' efforts . after Compressing the outer L.E. a just discernable amount , used a stand in the path , two hand , inner & outer ' apprehrenshion ',
with no alternative the automatic catches caught it .
Need to do a few sessions on set up , new tanks now o.k. with the filler fed thru to inner fuselage side . Wouldnt lean off with it parrallel to outer side . SMR cut off is reliable , but will introduce a tad more ' down ' before it hits .
a little visitor at dawn , at the camp spot . ;D

Potter Linwood sneak through . Owen Owen pinged twice overspeed / penaltry . ROTHWELL Nolan ditto , plus a 25 sec. plus ( was that 45 ) pantomime over ' Open The Needle ' - Oh , is THAT what he's said - Im too Busy Flick'n .
Maybe the Barometer Leaned it off . The Cool of the early mornings not toatally dispersed pre 11 AM , But by 1 pm , you can see , shade will avoid sunburn & dehydration . And its NOT Spring YET , Winters Wenting ,
but up in the mountains its alternately Not Too cool , Coool , and ' I thought it WASNT Cold - BRRRRR Frost etc . Last Year Oct was scorching , then back to the not warm at all for months .
200 Laps , 5 stops ( or was it more with the penalties ) and not a battery in sight .
