Teddington Ted should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

A bit optimistic I thought scheduling a 40 min race to start at 5.45..some of the backmarkers were in no rush, so slow forming up on the grid with time running out as it was nearly 10 mins late. As Titch pointed out..'eating into their racing time'.
Not sure about the curfew or slow back markers on the grid (it didn't seem to me to be any slower a grid-up than usual) but I was very glad they threw the chequered flag when they did given the oil on the circuit and machinery in dangerous parts of the kitty litter.

A race of attrition but great fun.

A fantastic meeting.
