good luck all!

ps. what car are adz and chris in? I heard the GTR had 'issues'

[Bec]

It did - all is good now though.

Keep your fingers crossed its a drama free weekend

We've had word they were running a little late this morning, so we dont think they've started as yet.

EDIT*** - they've started!! Let the games begin.

1st run - Newton didnt hit any cones

[R32Big_boy]

Poite is already faster than jeff in jeff's N1. GO TEAM POITE!

[Ant97GTR]

Great work pete.....and lol at Snowie and Blaise doing exactly the same time at the cafe

[ferni]

Looks like both chris and snowy and co-drivers are doing well, up the pointy end in all events, no mistakes yet, looking pretty close between these 2 - hopefully they can keep up the consistency!

Fark collecting points and going for one trophy Sunday night. Go for gold on every event and see how many event wins you can get. So silly to worry about the event over three days when you can bag 4-5 trophies on Friday and Saturday. Hit the pub Saturday night, have a blast then sit back with interest to see who wins the overall title.

[Mavric]

Top effort to Chris, Newton, Snowy and Blaise for being Team hit NO cones..

Its an awesome effort considering they changed the event sched and changed it to 3 rounds not 2.

[G.I. Jew]

A bit late but good luck & safe driving, fellas!

Good efforts Norton!

[Russman]

Any updates?

I find the live updates thing annoying. I saw that newton was fastest for the winton sprints by a fair bit. See some of you tomorrow.

[Roy]

White car first Friday night, Blue car 3rd i believe. All very tight and the weather mixing it up and making it very tough

[CAJFLY]

who is goin to shearform and Bombardier

[Russman]

Good driving out there guys. Good luck with all the results.

So we just got home after a big three days at Dutton. Final Results wont be available until we go to the presentations tonight.

But here is a quick overview...

Day 1

Wet Conditions (Evo Weather!), extra events added into the schedule.

Finished like this:

Thomson Newton Team 1st Outright

Newton 1st Co Driver Outright

Thomson Top 5 Driver Outright

Pete Blythe 1st easily in Rookie class and in the Top 10 Teams Overall With Jeff Beable.

Snowman and Paris also finished top 10 in Teams Overall.

Day 2

Mainly Wet conditions

Finished like this:

Thomson Newton Team 2nd Outright

Newton 1st Co Driver Outright

Thomson Top 5 Driver Outright

Peter Blythe Still 1st Rookie easily... Top results Pete! You ROSK

Snowman and Paris 4th Team Outright.

Day 3

Some wet but mainly dry conditions.

Results to come tonight,

We are guestimating that Thomson Newton will finish in 2nd or 3rd place outright team.

Snowman and Paris may have come up and will probably claim either 2nd or 3rd.

Beumont and Gazzard will win in their cheater evo.

Peter Blythe had mechanical problems and only finished three of the six events (drive shaft) today. He may still claim the Rookie outright trophy.

Well done boys, you all drove sooo well and you have made SAU proud!! Not many errors at all.

Some highlights:

No Cones Norton

McNortons Drive Thru

Freezing Weather

Night Super Stage with free Cheeseburgers and coffeess... Thanks to Rachels great idea!!

I had to tow a smashed Evo 7 home from Winton, the poor guy had a big hit in the wet.

Bec and Bris staying out till 5am Saturday morning (lucky you wearn't driving this year Brisby!!)

That's all for now, off to presentations....

Well Done again guys!!

[saff_cossie]

Having read most of the results on the website, all I can say is well done to all! All produced outstanding results, great work

Maybe the SAU Juniors have beaten the SAU Seniors this year

[Al]

WOW! What an awesome day. Even the cold wet weather couldn't dampen the great efforts of all involved.

Well done guys, great job!!

[R32Big_boy]

I'll have some photos by the end of the week. I have close to 5,000 to go through. I should be able to get a few done tonight that i'll post up.
