Small turnouts this week, but we had enough volunteer marshals to avoid running crash-and-burn on the Hillclimb.
Bottom line is that PA Watson swept the day with one car, running a GTP body on the same car he whipped us with in LMP. One gets the idea that he's pretty good at this! Complete results and tech data are at the bottom of the post.
LMP
JT Teflos TQ'ed with an LMP track record of 3.210.
PA took the win by 11 over JT, with Jerry Straznicky in third. Overall the local racers whipped up on the three out-of-towners, as we had our usual difficulties getting timing down on the tricky Hillclimb. My motor croaked and put me out of my misery with 2.5 heats left, but wouldn't have made much difference in the standings if had had kept going.
Jerry Straznicky's PA-painted Kelly Eagle took LMP concours.
Pro GTP
PA swapped his old OS Bentley body onto the LMP car he just beat us with, TQ'ed with a new track record, and beat Jerry by five laps for the win. Wade Vrtis completed the podium in third while the rest of us, let's say, didn't do too hot.
Jerry had a real nice PA-painted Bentley that took concours.
PA's ancient Bentley post-race. We shoulda black-flagged it.
Final results and tech data:
