2016 - 4th Special Evening: December 29th - Goodwood themed Special Night (same as 3rd evening) "just 4 fun", does NOT count towards the yearly championship. Report: Turnout was much better this time, with 10 members keen to race. Using our formula of highest placed championship position paired with lowest, and so on, the 5 teams were set as follows; Peter & Tim (P/T) Keith & Dave (K/D) Jim & Sandy (J/S) Wes & Chris (W/C) Steve & Will (S/W) Peter preferred not to use the white lane, because of potential damage caused by running the barrier, so we set up for 18 minute stints on the other 5 lanes. Thankfully Peter's team were on Black lane first and he showed us all what he was prepared to let the black car suffer when "running the barrier"! This meant that fastest lap was set on the black lane in every session. Session 1 Black lane - P/T 85.8 laps (Fastest lap 10.98, Peter) Blue lane - W/C 88 laps Green lane - J/S 87.1 laps Red lane - S/W 86.8 laps Yellow lane - K/D 82.1 laps Session 2 Black lane - S/W 93.3 laps (Fastest lap 10.88, Will) (180.1) Blue lane - J/S 90.2 laps (177.3) Green lane - K/D 86.8 laps (168.9) Red lane - W/C 90.6 laps (178.6) Yellow lane - P/T 86.3 laps (172.1) Session 3 Black lane - W/C 97.5 laps (Fastest lap 10.34, Chris) (276.1) Blue lane - K/D 92.5 laps (261.4) Green lane - P/T 91.5 laps (263.6) Red lane - J/S 92.7 laps (270) Yellow lane - S/W 93.2 laps (273.3) Session 4 Black lane - J/S 96.5 laps (Fastest lap 9.98, Jim) (366.5) Blue lane - P/T 96.1 laps (359.7) Green lane - S/W 96.8 laps (370.1) Red lane - K/D 90.3 laps (351.7) Yellow lane - W/C 98.8 laps (374.9) Session 5 Black lane - K/D 95.7 laps (Fastest lap 9.96, Keith) (447.4) Blue lane - S/W 100.7 laps (470.8) Green lane - W/C 104 laps (478.9) Red lane - P/T 96 laps (455.7) Yellow lane - J/S 100.2 laps (466.7) So the final result meant that the Hayling Hoonigans pairing of Wes & Chris have a 100% win- ning record at our Special nights when teamed together. Well done to Steve and Will for a steady run throughout the evening bagging them second place, particularly as this was Steve's first experience of playing "magic cranes"! Final result was Wes & Chris 478.9 laps Steve & Will 470.8 laps Jim & Sandy 466.7 laps Peter & Tim 454.7 laps Keith & Dave 447.4 laps Thanks once again to Peter for supplying the cars which, apart from one detached wheel insert and one detached fog light, put up with the abuse admirably. 2016 Series 8 see more . 17th & 24th November, 1st, 8th, 15th & 22nd December.
