At the Track ...LATEST UPDATE from the OUTREACH 500 Team - 11th November, 2008 40TH ANNIVERSARY RACE MEET The 8th November dawned cloudy but that didn’t dampen Kev and Ian’s enthusiasm as they loaded up the 500 and headed off for Darlington. This weekend was the 40th Anniversary Race Meet at Darlington so it was a very special day for the locals and visitors. It was also a day race so by 2.00 everything was ready to go. The 500s came out 5th and were represented by 2 groups. Kev raced in 1B, 2B, 3B and the combined final. Heat 1 Started 4th........finished 3rd Due to a bingle involving Kev and 2 other drivers, Kev had a damaged rear wheel but he was able to complete the race; although later inspection showed that the whole wheel needed to be replaced. Heat 2 Started 4th........finished 3rd Kev was racing well. At one point he ducked skilfully through a gap between 2 cars to improve his position in the field.......very impressive! (Brenda and I thought so anyway!) Heat 3 Started 4th ........finished 7th This was a mixed field with some from the previous A group mixed with some from the previous B group. A great race ~ No problems. No dints in Kev’s car!!! Final Started 6th........finished 9th The finals went for 21 laps. Kev was going well and had made up 3 places when the race was stopped about half way through. When it re-started he couldn’t rekindle his momentum and finally dropped a few spots back. But it was still a great effort! Overall, this first race-day of the calendar was extremely enjoyable. The car looked fantastic and went brilliantly. Don’t forget to say ‘Hi’ to Kev and Ian if you’re able to get to the track sometime to support them. God bless, Marg
