returned to planet Earth enabling him to resume the rest of the pattern. Darien played super-safe and made sure he gave the cones a wide berth on his first run. Tim came back with another FTD, but it was all over, and he found himself back in fourth, where he had started. Meanwhile, Justin was on fire and Peter Pan hit a cone resulting in the narrowest of margins of just four hundredths of a second keeping Justin from overtaking him. In other news, Peter Mayer, who had hit a cone in Atom and slipped 0.2 sec behind Norm, came back to pip him for eighth by just 0.1 second. Other commendable performances were noted: Mark Clayton drove his old Targa 911 to a blemish free and very consistent day, held back I suspect by having the lowest powered Porsche out there. Thomas Pan, on his first-time driving a motorkhana, made no errors all day and actually beat the old man on Atom. Jane Brookshaw also drove a blemish free day and finished it off with a really competitive time on the last run. It was great to see a previous champion in Dave Gilbert back again. A potential 7th eluded him after a WD on the first run of the day. He, along with others, will ‘read em and weep’, but will no doubt be back for another crack next time, when we’d love to see such a great turn out again.

Big thanks to Ray Pryor for peerless timing, Ray Clements for the photographic record and Darien Herreen for making sure we all had a great day, helping anyone in need with advice and navigating, as well as the pre-event organisation and part-time officiating. And thanks to everyone for entering!
