Sunday 27^th July being the fifth weekend of the month enabled us to sneak in another club meeting for the month prior to the venue closing for Word Championships in mid-August, which saw 53 entries attending.

With the lighting and power upgrade works commencing during the week, the track was slippery with little preparation making it a good test of man and machine.
