2006 Results:
Race 1 - Friday 12th May
Due to a timing clock hardware failure, we used our backup procedure.
Positions were unaffected: other than the man who ran with a ladies number, and came First Lady, thus completely fouling up not only the results, but also the presentations.
Thanks a lot mate.
