Luke and I would like to extend our appreciation to Andrew and fellow Fraser Coast club members for a wonderful event in a setting that is our beloved Fraser coast. For anyone who races with a family, the Fraser coast track is without doubt THE BEST event to take mum, siblings, aunties and grandparents and enjoy the beauty of the bay, great eateries, wildlife, whales and know while we're racing our toy cars, they are chilling out on the water front enjoying the R&R... The accomodation on the esplanade at Bayshore was outstanding value and was hard to believe considering it was fully equipped with kitchen, laundry, two bedrooms and friendly management, we even had a fast WIFI connect and watched Kylie McBride do his thing at the off-road worlds. HOW GOOD IS THAT!!

We would also like to clarify our motives for attending the event and feel strongly about re-iterating our objectives. We will be attending the world 200mm IC titles in Thailand in a month and the opportunity to race on a smaller track and test our ability to adapt to new conditions and get up to speed quickly was one of the reasons we attended. Another was to return the countless times the Fraser coast boys have travelled down to Brisbane to participate with us and make our events bigger and better. We achieved our objectives, but we used up all our tyres.

We destroyed our first set of tyres in practice on Friday as our car was setup with a lot of camber for the SSF chassis geometry. This left us with two sets on Saturday, Luke's times were dropping and we took advantage of the 4 rounds and used up the remaining two sets to get as much good track-time
as possible. By the end of the day we'd made the A cut, and knowingly threw the correct race strategy out the window.

I feel very strongly about preserving racing etiquette and "stealing" an A final position from another driver does not sit well n our mode of racing. The MOD racing etiquette was the best I've witnessed in all my time racing so as a spectator it was great to watch, but there were regular drivers that were more deserving of an A Final and after strong discussions with Luke I managed to convince him that we'd met our objectives, had a wonderful day racing and enjoyed the whole trip. Sunday was going to be all downhill and would only blemish the great time we were having.

I officially withdrew Luke from the event as to create a position for someone else deserving of that place, we didn't impound our tyres, we told the top two drivers we were heading back and I'll leave that discussion to the powers that be...

In NO WAY should our actions be tainted with the notion of a disgruntled racer, we had the best time, Luke and I agree we made the correct decision and I trust that the 10th position be handed to the correct person.

Again, a big thanks to Andrew and the Fraser coast crew for the great event, without question anyone wanting to take the family away on an RC trip, HERVEY BAY IS THE PLACE TO BE.


Sincerely,

Harry & Luke

Those that ran in the event probably witnessed some of the best conditions in a picture perfect setting ever. Got to say its the first time the wife didn't want to come home from a Venue early. Congrats to the Fraser Boys for the big effort put into the facility. A special thnaks to the sports club cook who kept Elliot, me and the family well fed.
Apparently there are some really cool shops that the wife and daughter did not get to visit. So I've been told I have to got back soon. Thanks for the splendid weekend.

Well done to all the podium winners. And a good result from BRCCC drivers. Apparently I've been reminded that I owe Elliot a new TRF and a crack in 13.5

Cheers Brendan
