    Quick report copied from my facebook:

    Where to begin! What a weekend popping our endurance cherry...

    Got there and set up thursday night and regrouped with the hottrax gang. Friday went out on the dunlops on our blades worried we'd be doing a clinsman at turn 1, first session out both felt squeemish as temperature was single figures, went out second session and pushed on and loved it. Wedgie in the 54s me in the 52s by close of play test day. Mint curry and a beer friday with the lads nice to meet some new faces.

    Saturday started with quali... I went out as the session started on the slicks and it started raining so wobbled round for two laps and came in, sent out the Wedgemeister on wet tyres and due to a throttle malfunction he has a spill on his way out of pitlane... broken collar bone and a bruise the size of a planet on his hip. Tough lad, wasn't making a fuss just pointed at his shoulder and said "thats fucked". Off he goes to hospital and in steps our third rider Jonboy McNally wuuuufffff

    Started the endurance dead last in 37th but got away pretty well. Came in when the rain started again and jonboy went out on the wets smashing some great times in and sneaking in a 51.9 wicked. We had some interesting pit stops one with no wheels which cost us some time but it was all a learning curve. I was happy when the end came and I swear the last 30 minutes was the longest ever, enjoyed taking the flag. All in all we made up 20 places overall and finished 17th, 4th in class.

    Thanks to everybody who helped out it really was a team effort.
    Rob Herbert Dave Wedge Brian Leek Kyle Consterdine Josh Singleton my pops, wedgie's uncle and mate and everyone else who chipped in.

    Thanks to all the sponsors who made it possible for us starting from our trip to spain in february:
    Fms Car & Truck ltd
    Reevu
    Opie Oils
    Autoreclaim

    Well done to TBL top display this weekend lads, leekys first time racing and he took some impressive chunks off his times. Well done to all the other racers.

    Excited for wedgie to get back in shape and experience the buzz.

    Endurance is mega!!! See you at cadders

    Action pics to follow when they're done
