Muchmore UK RugRacers 08/09: Round 5 race report

Muchmore UK Rugracers Round 5

97 Drivers braved the icy and snowy conditions to travel to Muchmore UK RugRacers round 5 and they welcomed by the popular layout from round 2 which everyone liked again with some technical yet flowing track.

All the front runners in each class were in attendance, so we were in for another close day of racing which we promptly saw in the pro-stock class and through out qualifying. Ricky Copsey took TQ just .15(!!) ahead of Adam Mackman's Schumacher MI 3.5 and 5th to 15th covered by just 5 seconds so every tenth of a second would count!

In modified we saw some very close racing in the finals and in Stock we saw a white wash at the front by Malcolm Hall looking untouchable all day with his Prince 13.5 and Nosram Stock Spec speed control.
