The Victor Meldrew

It's end of season in TTRS and what do we do? Prioritise age and infirmity over youth and good health. The Victor Meldrew race today at Brands Hatch had the most random handicapping system but I had the best race of the season today.

I qualified 4th in my group with a 58.3 - same as last week. Race 1 I was put on the front row of the grid next to a crazy Jaguar XJRS and we had a great battle for the first five laps. I couldn't get past and then we got stuck in crazy traffic and I had to avoid a couple of exuberant drivers. Finished 16th - very frantic. Best lap 58.9.

Race 2 and I was alongside the crazy Jaguar again. We proceeded to have the same battle with me trying to pass in a car that cornered better but was slower on the straights. I got him in traffic about halfway through and held off to the end. Best race I have ever had, and just right at 15 minutes. Best lap 58.8

All in all it was an excellent end to the season. All timings from the TSL timing site.

Here's the battle with the meaty Jag XJRS:
