ANOTHER JACK ATTACK AT SKEG
Paul Brown in face palm mode an apoplectic rage with holiday numpties, it must be time for the Skeggy Holiday Stunts and Shunts show season.
Heat 1 went the way of Mike Green (115) proving he is one of the top tarmac drivers at the moment. Heat 2 proved that the Fruit Salad is truly on the money at the moment as Dave Polley (38) took the win on his dearest's birthday...obviously no romantic meal for Liz then, unless KFC does candlelight specials...
Cue the final and it turned out to be a classic last bender especially for the Polley/Green spat that had been brewing for the last couple of meetings, as both heat winners went into the last corner. Yoink says Jack Aldridge (921) who stole it taking another Jak for company as Marshall (199) took second and Polley recovered for 3rd. Skeggy veteran/expert/stalwart Andrew Spence (557) took the national...
BARRY BLASTS TO LYNN WIN
The only meeting in England this weekend, was a super shale trip to King's Lynn. It was to be quite a challenging night for host promotion Trackstar. 58 F2's turned up to play, once again, limited, but considering the no shows on the F1, it might be them who have the restricted bookings next time, but then hell might freeze over and common sense might be posted on certain internet forums! Heat 1 went the way of the legend Sam Wagner (823) who berated my reporting of the shale meetings as wholly uinaccurate, So for wagner, an impressive win, seeing as halfway thru the race he pulled over to get some tinned tuna at tescos, solve World Peace, host the Eurovision Song Contest and buy sister Janice a new dress for her hard fought driving on the way home from Birstol... Heat 2 wnet the way of Paul Nicholson (198) who followed up by joining the illustrious Pringle club in the final...
The consolation saw a career first win for Stephen North (372) who sped away not to be caught. The final went the way of the top shale man in form. Barry Goldin (401) took his latest shale win in some aplomb. certainly one to watch come \Mildenhall for the semis as he is no mug on the tar either!
And the GN, well we know what happened there - see Points of Order
MOODIE HAS BAD LUCK AT COWDIE SHOCKER
For a few dark moments on Saturday night, it appeared that all was not alright with the Earth's orbit. The mere seismic nature of the Earth's existence after Gordon Moodie (7) failed to finish not 1 but 2 heats at Cowdenbeath. As Gregor Turner (391) and Robbie Dawson (854), men were sent to beacons to warn of approaching apocalypse, pestilence and famine such was the shock of the impending situation. However, crisis was averted as the silver haired silver top sped to his umpteenth final win of the season. Marc Fortune (64) took his first race win of the year with a win in the national, and the believers cried Hosanna!
TIME FOR PJs AS MOODIE TAKES CRIMOND QR

Up in the northern outpost, where its so far north, you see Norway, and even the local breed of cows wears a wooly jumper for a qualifier. Sadly, no Scottish qualifier week so the number of visitors was limited to just one - Paul Moss (979), who from Fowey, couldn't have been further from home. He was one of 19 competitors and with it the best attended meeting in Scotland so far in 2014. being a qualifier, Gordon Moodie (7) sorted out the gremlins in the system and sorted out the karma police and took a near faultless hattrick of wins, giving his first maximum qualifier for some time.
A GN win for Moss rounded out a great day for the Cornish youngster who's very entry into the race was thanks to the generosity of Dennis Middler (641) who lent the Cornish youngster his spare engine so he could compete! A career best haul of 36 points and a supersizing of his grade change to blue come June could be on the cards!
POINTS of ORDER
The King's Lynn GN. Lined up. Ready to go. Rolling lap goes. An untidy start saw Neil Darby (523) roll which saw and leaves those F2 fans a little cold, and unpopular decision with drivers and fans alike. Yes, there was a dangerous breakaway, not under the control of the officials of the course, but, stock car drivers are monkey see, monkey do merchants at the best of times, so whoever broke away obviously had his reasons, and the rest followed! Promoter and steward decided that instead of punishing or talking to the drivers on the track, decided abandonment was the best course of action. Whether they were up against time constraints or whether it was just a pechalent decision, the shale drivers have been done out of a F2 race and gives a further disadvantage to those in the unfair national points. However, it does benefit the dominator points, the exact reason why it was brought in! Sadly this wasn't the only point of moaning for Trackstar supremo Paul Butler, who felt he had to repsond to the loons on Stoxnet. Dion't poke the nutters! Yes it is disappointing when drivers don't turn up, but to publically name and shame, could and did end up with egg on their face! Trust me, these nutters on Stoxnet are slowly killing their own formula.
Not since the days of dear old Trevor Redmond on a Wednesday night Newton Abbot have I seen such an occurrence. TR would have the floodlights on a timer, and kill the lights if the 10:30 curfew was breached back in the day, leaving us GN less, often with cars racing!
Dale Moon (302) looks like he could be out for a period. The Ladies favourite fell over damaging him, proving he is only "Dangerous" to himself.
Still come what may....
