DAVE DUTCH TAKES HIS FOURTH OVERALL WIN

A long awaited return to an old venue for the IOW Car Club. So there was much excitement for the drivers as new venues are in short supply these days, unlike the rain which was the forecast for the day. Luckily it stayed away in the morning so this meant that once again the drivers were trying to get the best times they could in the early runs because once the rain arrived the run times were not going to get any quicker.

RUN 1 .. First to set the pace was John Dutch in his mini with a time of  59.48 sec, closely followed by Dave Dutch on a 59.93 sec, then Andy Williams on 61.21 sec, Chris Greenen on 62.21 sec , Daniel Kozakewycz on 63.15 sec , Toby Allen on 63.71 sec .

RUN 2 ..  Saw many more drivers picking up the pace and as a result the leader boards was changing. This time Dave Dutch put in a time of 57.89 sec and then Dave Goodwin on a 59.33 sec , followed by Chris Greenen on a 60.03 sec , then Andy Greenen on 61.67 sec , Ricky Sheppard on 61.92 sec , Vicky Cox on 62.13 sec .

RUN 3 .. Once again saw Dave Dutch setting a new pace of 55.98 sec for all others to follow, John Dutch gave chase with a 57.89 sec , followed by Dave Goodwin on 58.41 sec , Toby Allen on 58.93 sec , Andy Greenen on 59.71 sec , Dan Morgan on 59.88 sec ..

RUN 4 .. Saw Dave Dutch set a new FTD time of 55.27 sec, hot on his heels was Toby Allen on a 56.75 sec then Dave Goodwin on 57.34 sec , John Dutch on 58.55 sec , Dean Long on 58.83 sec and finally an outstanding drive by Kevin Richardson with a time of  59.24 sec , to give him his best overall position of the season so far..

RUN 5 .. Saw heavy rain arrive with strong winds , resulting in the track flooded and  track markers and timing equipment blown over leading to the top ten on the leader board calling that it for the day knowing that there was little chance their position would change..

Congratulations to Dave on a great drive and his Fourth Overall win

of the 2013 Season

John Dutch Wins Final Round of the

 IOWCC Unsealed Surface Championship

 The weather forecast was for rain by midday and with heavy rain over night the grass field was very wet and slippery. It was most likely that the best times were going to be achieved in the first two or three runs if the rain was to arrive at midday and arrive it did ..

First to set the pace was two new day members Chris Bloomfield and Kevin Dance in there purpose built off road buggy and they were eight seconds ahead of the following bunch of drivers of Andy Williams, Dan Morgan, John Dutch, Marion Saunders..

By Run 3 and still no rain it was John Dutch setting the pace for the men and Marion Saunders for the Women in there classic Minis, both seemed to be in their element in the wet and slippery conditions..

The women drivers were having a good day as not only Marion was doing well but Jemma Western was also putting in some outstanding drives, both achieving their best results this year, 6^th overall and 8^th overall respectively..

By Run 4 the rain arrived and the course was turned into a mud bath and like driving on ice making it almost impossible for any one to push John Dutch off the top of the leader board and that turned out to be the case and giving John his first win of the 2013 campaign and securing him the class 5 championship title .

Congratulations to John on a great drive and his win

Ryan Munt Take IOWCC Unsealed Surface Championship Title

 The track although looking a bit small to many on first viewing , turned out to be a great little track with fast and slower sections in it, a good mix. The weather forecast was hot and sunny and it was needed as the grass field was wet and slippery for the first two runs but as the grass came off the surface and the sun dried it out the grip levels came up and the run times came down…

  RUN 1... First to set the pace was John Dutch posting a time of 66:24 seconds closely followed by Wayne Hole with a time of 68:53 seconds and then Steve Brett with a time of 69:60 seconds , Darren Taylor with a 70:37 seconds , Danny Grist with a 70:52 seconds .

RUN 2..  Saw Andy Williams posting a blistering time of 60:94 seconds followed by Danny Grist on a 62:37 sec , then Wayne Hole with a time of 64:95 seconds , Darren Taylor with a 65:70 seconds , James Robbins with a 66:00 seconds .

RUN 3.. The track grip was now getting much better and the times were coming down fast and getting closer with Darren Taylor and Dan Morgan setting a new equal joint fastest time of 57:01 seconds with John Dutch close behind on a 58:17 seconds then Brian Robbins with a 58:50 seconds , Steve Brett with a 58:63 seconds

RUN 4..  Saw Ryan Munt come from nowhere to set a new fastest time of 53:83 seconds in his 4WD Subaru, followed by James Robbins with a 55:14 seconds , then  Andy Williams with a 55:32 , then Dan Morgan with a 55:38 seconds , then Chris Wilson with a 55:54 seconds..

RUN 5..  Saw Ryan Munt set a new fastest time that looked like a time that no one else would be able to get close to as the following five drivers were all getting in the 54 seconds band , Darren Taylor 54:27 sec , James Robbins 54:42 sec , Chris Wilson 54:64 sec , John Dutch 54:82 sec , Wayne Hole 54:91 seconds.

RUN 6.. THE final chance for everyone to get there fastest time and knock Ryan off the top of the leader board, Chris Wilson got close with a 53:55 sec , Darren Taylor with a 54:23 sec , Wayne Hole 54:46 sec , Brian Robbins 54:65 sec , John Dutch 54:71 seconds..

Congratulations to Ryan on a great drive and his win

ATHERFIELD

ROUND 10   USS   15-9-2013 

Ryan Munt takes His Fourth (USS) win

A long awaited venue for many as it gave an opportunity for a large open track layout to be set out and a great track it turned out to be. The weather forecast was cloudy with possible heavy showers, thankfully the showers stayed away until the event had finished.

RUN 1 First to set the pace was Darren Taylor posting a time of 1:02:16 closely followed by John Dutch on a 1:02:33 then Wayne Hole on a 1:06:07, Kevin Richardson on a 1:07:30 and Dan Morgan on a 1:07:31.

RUN 2..  Saw every one improving there time as the track was giving more grip with the grass coming off  the surface of the field, first to set this new pace was John Dutch on a 58.34 seconds followed by Dan Morgan on a 1:00:04 then Darren Taylor on a 1:00:06 then Terry Steele on a 1:00:76 then Wayne Hole on a 1:01:76 then Toby Allen on a 1:02:17 and finally Kevin Richardson on a 1:02:49

RUN 3.. The track grip was now getting much better and the times were getting closer but John Dutch was still setting the pace with a 58.34 seconds but hard on his heels was Terry Steele with a 58.50 seconds then Wayne Hole on a 59.34 seconds then Dan Morgan on a 59.54 seconds then Darren Taylor on a 59.79 seconds and finally Matt Price on a 59.97 seconds, the only six to be under the one minute barrier..

RUN 4.. Once again saw John Dutch set the pace with a time of 56.49 seconds but Dan Morgan was chasing hard with a time of 57.23 seconds closely followed my Andy Williams on a 57.90 seconds then Terry Steele on a 58.29 seconds, then Darren Taylor on a 58.49 seconds and finally Dean Long on a 58.88 seconds….

 RUN 5.. Saw Ryan Munt in his 4WD Subaru coming from nowhere to put in a stunning time of 56.27 seconds pushing John Dutch into second place overall, followed by Terry Steele with an improved time of 57.92 seconds then Dean Long on a 58.05 seconds then Wayne Hole on a 58.07 seconds and finally Darren Taylor on a 58.19 seconds…

RUN 6.. The final chance for everyone to get their fastest time and knock Ryan off the top of the leader board BUT no one could improve their times apart from Andy Williams with a 57.14 moving him into 3^rd place overall and  Darren Taylor with a time 57.96 seconds..

All a bit too close for Ryan but his RUN 5 time of 56.27 seconds was enough to push John Dutch off the top of the leader board by only 0.22 of a second and give him his fourth win of the 2013 season and with only two USS rounds to go it looks like John ( the 2012 champion) will be handing over the USS Title to Ryan at the end of the year…

 

Congratulations to Ryan on a great drive and his win
