Its all over, we came away with all our wings, chassis and driver intact
Dean finished 3rd in the C Main to transfer through to the back of the B Main. Dean needed to finish in the top 8 to go through to the A Main which is a big ask with some incredibly fast drivers also in the B Main.
As they were push starting the cars Dean pulled over to the side of the track as he thought his left front shock had come off, we started of the back and had climbed up to 14th place but the shock itself had actually broken internally and had stopped working all together and to add to Deans woes his last 10 tear offs on his helmet all ripped off in one go so he had no tear offs or vision for the last 10 laps and said he was driving with one hand wiping his helmet visor every corner.
However he still drove well and even though we didn't qualify for the A Main we still had a fantastic time tyring
Congratulations to our friend Jonathan Allard and his fantastic crew on winning this event, thanks to all the crews, drivers, teams, people, fans etc who welcomed us to all of these events.
Our computer has died so I cannot post any pictures until I get home
