The first event on the list has been and gone

 

7Oaks MC was running its now traditional bank holiday weekend sprint, and with the Rover back from being fixed after the Charity Stages it seemed like a good chance to have a shakedown before the rallies start in earnest...

 

The day went well, i ran the car for most of the day in 'Enduro Spec' i.e. running two spare wheels, tools, spare parts etc..... however as things were close at the top of the class i took it all out for the final run. However the rain gods intervened and it rained a bit on my final run, although i was faster, it wasn't quite enough. I missed out on the class win by 0.25secs.

 

Results are now out, and are available here http://www.sevenoaksmotorclub.com/results/7%20Oaks%20NW%2029th%20August%20Results.pdf

 

I ran the video camera on-board for one of the runs and this will be uploaded on YouTube soon on the MattEndeanRallying account.
