Great event guys, a “show” would be better description.

Silverfox

What a fantastic day of racing, and a real spectacle! Pilots started arriving between 12 and 1pm, just in time to help finish up the last sections of the track. High winds had made the setup tricky, and that wasn’t the last problem that the wind would cause that day!

Pilots soon started putting in their first laps in the gusty conditions, missing and hitting gates left, right and centre. Soon though we started to see fast times coming in, but with less than half of pilots putting in 3 laps in the first round, the conditions were tough.

As the sun was setting, the show really got started, as the SGDC track crew activated all the track lighting. As day turned to dusk the LEDs shone through giving pilots a taste of the evening to come. Everyone pushed to make their best Top 3 Consecutive times, and when the final qualifying round finished at 5:30, everyone took a break while the Race Directors battle software with pen and paper to work out the final qualifying positions.

Either due to heavy winds, or a new format, the final qualification table looked more like a random sort than a measure of skill. Notable anomalies include KPV and MrE in C-Main, with more consistent pilots taking their places in the upper finals.

As the final races started in full darkness, the radically different visibility caught pilots out, with only gates and the track line to guide them. All the quads were shining in bright multicolour LEDs – pilots had made a lot of effort to really deck out their quads and put on an awesome show for spectators. One pilot’s quad was even referred to as a “Pink Sun”.

Darkness and weather can never stop the best of the best though, as the finals were rounded out, familiar faces were smiling from the top podium. Congratulations to Knighthawk, King Joshy and Steath for 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively.

On behalf of the SGDC Committee we’d like to extend a huge thank you to everyone who turned out with their brilliant quads and blazing skills! Final result were as follows:
