Albermahle Centralised Event - June 1st 2003

Report from Paul McPeake -

 

The weather was generally good - warm and sunny, with some wind, but not enough to prevent 3 up races.

The first round saw Wiseman/Bellamy make their F2C debut. With an old diesel converted combat glow from Merv Jones, a 20 year old donated model and a Taipan 7x6 prop they flew a sensible 3 stop race to record their first ever time. This round also saw the best time of the day, a 3.28.5 from Fitzgerald/Thomason.

Langworth/Broadhead had an unexpected stop in the first race and then ran-in but in the second round put in the second fastest time of the day with a 3.32.1.

Riley/Robinson had a few nasty moments with an evil handling model and retired after two races.
