We finish up today for the 2018 season with a friendly race day at Navan with a number of spot prizes for those in attendance. The day was dry but the track was wet after heavy overnight rain, this lead to tricky conditions on track with traction levels low all day.

In Nitro 1st was Derek, 2nd Jimmy and 3rd Sean.

Well done to everyone who took part in Round 3 of the Championship over the weekend. Despite the delay in starting we got everything run even if it was a little dark by the end ( pitch black, 🔦🔦 ). In Nitro great win by Bradley who was flying in his JQ, Derek came in 2nd in the Tekno and Barkley despite having a issue with the car brought his Agama home in 3rd. Ebuggy was a floodlight race and we were treated to a great battle between two of the Tekno drivers for 1st + 2nd nose to tail for the 10mins but it was Derek who took it after a last lap pass on Colin in near darkness.
JQ driver Crtis Hughes drove a great race again this wekend finishing up in 3rd and showing hes no slouch when it comes to Ebuggy and 1/8th racing.
No Podium picture as it was to dark, results and timings are available through the link above.
Thanks again and cya all in 2 weeks for Round 4.
