Thanks for the tip on beebs, it’s working now.

And yes on the weight penalty for Goff. Each race their are significant weight penalties for the positions achieved at the previous race.

And Tom Chilton maintains the reason why he’s so unlikable.

Well that was fun. Good win for Proctor. That incident with Moffat was fair, entirely 50/50.

Yep those brave enough to start on slicks made it interesting and had the pace as the track dried. A good race.

21 cars entered thus far for the years' STCC. I've already taken a day off work to go to the Karlskoga round in August.

However, out of those 21 cars, 11 are VW Golf's. Most others are Audis or Seats. Not a very diverse field....

Chilton did a good job to hold on to that.
