Practice started Monday with 4 and a bit rounds until the rain came. The track was damp to wet after a number of days of rain last week. Tuesday dawned dry and during the morning there were two rounds of timed and controlled practice, the second round being used to sort the grid for the first round of Heats (Best two consecutive laps).

From the start of the meeting it was eveident that the battle between Peter and Hubert (Hupo) at the warmup meeting in May was just part of a wider campaign. The only difference was that there were a few other parties to add some spice. Current World Champion Neil Cragg was more than happy to get a piece of the action, sharing heat 13 with Hupo. Also in 13 is young Jörn Neumann. I saw him race electric Off Road at the Petit RC Race in February and also Rallycross at the DXR at Easter.
