Croft racing this weekend With pics
The Northern sports & Saloons, plus the NW version, the Performance & economy chip tuning sports & saloons will be racing Saturday and
Sunday.
Pete will be racing his Civic in the NSSCC race on Sunday only I told a few folks at Cadwell on Monday he was racing Saturday. Got the final
instructions through this morning. He's qualifying late on Saturday, and racing 16-30 Sunday.

It's supposed to rain Saturday night / Sunday morning, hopefully will be dry for his race. You could get wet playing golf, but you'll be
used to that wont you.

Well, you could allways do both. You can go to Cadwell on Saturday, (Say hello to my bro, Rich D in Locost No 25) then Croft on Sunday. Sorted!

Pete had a bit of a so so qually session. Not one clear lap, but looking at his vid, he could probably only have mooved up a couple of places.
Once again they've grouped all the classes together, so he's starting 17th on the grid, 3rd in class D.
A few pics from the racing / quallifying today. Chris Maries' MK briefly led the race but dropped to 2nd.

Thanks. There are a bunch of MK bods camping at the circuit tonight, methinks they're in for a soggy one.

Not the best of races for Pete, he was holding a very lonely 3rd position in class D when one of the front runners engine packed in. So 2nd in class
D, but slightly off the pace.
NW race was a battle between the Locosaki and MK, ended up with the MK burried in the tyre wall.
Some pics.

Chris was OK, he was joking on with the marshalls. Not sure where Danny finished, but I saw him battle his way past the RX7. Must have finished
well up.
