Round 1 TRAC
April the 21st was the first round of the SICC held by Trac at Torbay.
Many thanks to Trac for being brave enough to take on the very first round of a completely new series and a huge thanks to the drivers for having the faith to put their support behind what is a completely new thing.
Everything ran really well with no problems at all so now hopefully my sleepless nights will stop.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the day and a lot of friendly chat and laughing as well as some close racing was seen all day.

Driver of the day
Driver of the day went to SHMCC's Steve Tilbury who had the day from hell from the moment he unpacked
His brushless esc went up in smoke when he turned it on for round 1 but instead of calling it a day he proceeded to change the car to brushed and redo everything in time to make round 3.
All through the time of changing the car over he was still smiling and doing so volunteer marshalling even with his car in bits on the pit table which is what the series is all about fun and friendly
