Team Final 2009
Over at ArenaOldSkoolRX it was a very hard hitting affair between PoshWash,Warriors,TaskForce & The Squad,It appeared team tatics came into play,but i presume all teams had a game plan of some sort,In the end after 25 laps of brutalness it was The Squad captained by Stig who came through for the win! The Squad usually known for their crashing pulled a suprise by also being 1st,2nd & 3rd!!! With PoshWash Kane taking 4th,Thanks to everybody for taking part & Well done Squad - Stig817,Luke298,Deano763 & Jaboy739
Also 817 & 298 earned themselves a place on the main CoC final grid for being part of the winning team.

CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS FINAL 2009
so with 817,298,139,125 & 199 all joining the pre qualified grid of 760-27-606-508-321-739-988 & 763 the stage was set!
Clutch start,Lee606 & Fred125 were on the front of the grid,with figure 8 champ Kane988 on row 2 in a very smart Mk1 and the rest of the field backed up behind,Start Marshall Jay called go to set everyone on their way,UK Dirt world champion Lakey508 ended up travelling a few car lengths and facing the wrong way on the infield thanks to stig817 putting the bumper in from the word go!
Up front 988 & 606 were having a cracking race swopping places every lap and putting the bumper in,
Further back Luke298 came out of nowhere to attack the big hearse of flying dutchman Haadee321 but he somehow escaped and caught World Champion Ryano760 instead planting his big caddy nose first in the fence,

Fred125 made up ground and was now pushing hard in 3rd,Luke298 seemed to have the devil in him after giving Slatter139 the turnaround treatment,606 & 988 were still rubbing doorhandles at the head of the field with Jaboy739 now moving up into 3rd place.Lakey508 was now flying in his crown,taking Birmingham in his stride and caught Haadees hearse against the armco lifting the rear of it off the ground,Lee606s challenge ended after driving up the back end of the 298 car,Deano 763 moving through with the front runners,Luke298,Still on oppo caught running mate Deano763 with a glancing head on which allowed kanes smart mk1 to just clip the back end and turn 763 around,while a few others piled in,Kezza199,Stig817,Luke298,Slatter139 were all now on oppo creating carnage on the bendfor any poor sod who attempted to get past,In the midst of all the chaos 763 & 988 were pushed back and Ryano760 had worked his way through the field and now into the lead,After a few laps of dodging oppo he eventually got caught and Jaboy739 came storming through the side,mullering the champ,

Deano763 found his footing and came back through with Fred hard on his heels with a recovered ryano in 3rd,The oppo bend was still in full swing and caught a few more victims in the last few laps and a few naughties saw Deano cross the line and take the title ahead of Leeds man Kane988 who drove a solid race for second,Jaboy739 in his smart Mk2 nabbed 3rd with the big Purple hearse of Haadee in 4th! UK Dirt man Lakey508 drove a consistant race for 5th,well done mate,and the oldest car in online racing history! the dinosaur crown of Slatter139 taking 6th



Yep! That was as bad as the damage got for Deano!

Meeting A Final
With a few people leaving we did an all in for the meeting final,which i was told after by our host that it was 26 cars racing together,The days of the big A Finals are back! Thanks Jay!
Again a clutch start set the field away and chaos reigned supreme! once the dust had cleared and a few scores were settled 25 laps later it was our ex double world champ Jay297 in his cool crown coupe that flew across the line for victory followed by speedyreedy632 in his smart Mk1 and Toward27 in his wild wild west mk2,

There was then a filler race on the Brum R track which Jaboy739 won before Allcomers at arenaoldskoolRX Which saw Deano763 romp home again amidst the carnage,


Dont ask me to pick a smart car because loads made the effort and looked fantastic!
