2019 Graded Meetings Results

Postby Jon#606 » Fri 25 Jan 2019, 11:48 pm

Round 1 (British Qualifier 1 / Welsh Championship)
A superb showing of fourteen drivers made the first graded meeting of the season one to remember at the classic Blackwood Car Park oval. Belgian driver #13 C-Day made his debut in the league this evening, while it was a long overdue return for Northern Irish driver and real life stockrod racer #910 Neil (formerly Niall) to LFS Bangers.

It was business as usual for the reigning World and Points champion as Rik's incredible consistency netted him top spot yet again, with two heat wins and an Allcomers combined with a superb set of 4 second places (including one in the Welsh Championship race) saw him score 71 points, 16 ahead of the next place in the table. Newly-crowned European Champion Cole came in second thanks to a heat win, the other two Allcomers and a pair of third places. Shane completed the top 3 with a heat win of his own along with two second places in the heats and a grinding tie in the DD with cousin Sam, but the night's big winner was Neil, who secured the Welsh Championship wildcard for the British Championship in May to guarantee his spot on the grid. There were also surprise wins for both Spook and Jon in the heats, with both performing incredibly well over the night; could this be a sign of things to come from two of the league's hardest triers?

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Three Allcomers were also held. Drivers in italics finished but did not score points. 5 points went to the DD winner; in the event of a tie, it would be 2 points each.

Round 2 (British Qualifier 2 / Scottish Championship)
An excellent turnout of fifteen drivers took the long trip up to Cowdenbeath for the second graded meeting of the season in a true stramash of a session which had all the top tier racing and wrecking action you'd expect from the ever dangerous Racewall.

Tonight was a demonstration that those who win titles in LFS Bangers keep wanting to win regardless as the top 3 were the 4 big title holders from 2018. For the second meeting in succession it was World & Points champ Rik coming out on top with 62 points, largely in part to back-to-back heat wins, two seconds and a third in the final. European champ Cole was second once again, but this time ended just 2 points behind #997 despite netting a heat win and the all car Allcomers. The "unretired" British champion Pepino secured his chance to defend his title by claiming the Scottish Championship wildcard race as well as the first heat of the evening to finish just a point behind #911 in third. Josh was the best of the rest, claiming two Allcomers races but failing to claim a heat, with Shane just behind who won a heat, an Allcomers and incredibly drew the DD with cousin Sam for the second graded meeting in a row! Michal completed the winners' list with the second heat of the night.

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Four Allcomers were also held. Drivers in italics finished but did not score points. 5 points went to the DD winner; in the event of a tie, it would be 2 points each.

Heat 1: Pepino, Rik, Shane, Stwarm, Josh, Michal, Sam M., Jam, Dean, Cole, Brett, Looney, Dumbo
Heat 2: Michal, Cole, Dean, Josh, Rik, Jam, Pepino, Shane, Brett, Sam M., Jon, Dumbo

Heat 6: Shane, Michal, Josh, Cole, Jam, Stwarm, Dean, Pepino, Sam M., Jon, Looney, Dumbo

Round 3 (British Qualifier 3 / Irish Championship)
Before I start the write-up, a slight apology; for some reason a few drivers tonight had internet issues which didn't appear to sort themselves out during the meeting. Whether this was to do with the individuals themselves or the update to version 0.6U, I'm not sure. But let's all try and get it sorted next week so no-one's races get ruined :)

A slightly lower but still very good showing of 13 drivers (12 eligible for points) crossed the Irish Sea to take to the Nutts Corner tarmac for the third graded meeting of the 2019 season. With Nutts Corner being a wide and open track with a spread out grid, this meant that the at times contact and combative racing was at a premium but when the hits went in and the battles for victory commenced, they were more than worth the wait. Continuing the theme of returning Team Klepdeksel drivers in recent weeks was 312 Mr. T-Bone, reappearing after a period away.

For the first time this season the 2 Litre Grades saw a round winner that was NOT Rik! In incredibly uncharacteristic fashion from the reigning World and Points champion, he failed to get a single points win, only claiming the second Allcomers. But it could have been so much different had he managed to win the DD. Alas, it wasn't to be as he was beaten in said DD by the winner of the night in former 2 Litre World champion Shane, who won 3 of the 6 heats on offer before claiming that crucial DD victory. The biggest winner of the evening however was former European champ Jam, who secured his spot on the British Championship grid with a hard fought win in the final over Rik, and also claimed a heat and 2 Allcomers, to finish joint third. The other driver in third was graded first timer Hunter, who had a solid showing with a heat win, a second and two thirds. Mr. T-Bone was also a surprise race winner, claiming the opening race of the evening and eventually finishing 6th overall. The sole Irishman in the field was current European champion Cole, who didn't get a win but had three thirds (including the final) and a second to end up 5th.

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Three Allcomers were also held. Drivers in italics finished but did not score points. 5 points went to the DD winner.

Heat 1: Mr. T-Bone, Hunter, Shane, Jam, Rik, Cole, Stwarm, Storm, Naglas, Sam M., Jon
Heat 2: Shane, Rik, Sam M., Mr. T-Bone, Hunter, Cole, Naglas, Storm, Stwarm, Jon, Looney, Jam
Heat 3: Hunter, Shane, Cole, Mr. T-Bone, Rik, Looney, Jam, Jon, Storm, Stwarm, Naglas
Heat 4: Shane, Cole, Hunter, Jam, Rik, Stwarm, Naglas, Jon, Mr. T-Bone, Looney, Storm, Sam M.
Heat 5: Shane, Jam, Cole, Rik, Hunter, Looney, Stwarm, Mr. T-Bone, Storm, Sam M.
Heat 6: Jam, Rik, Hunter, Mr. T-Bone, Naglas, Cole, Sam M., Shane, Stwarm, Storm, Looney, Jon

Final (Irish Championship): Jam, Rik, Cole, Shane, Mr. T-Bone, Hunter, Stwarm, Looney, Sam M., Storm, Jon

Allcomers 1: Jam, Sam M., Stwarm, Rik, Naglas, Hunter

Round 4 (British Qualifier 4 / English Championship)
The season's lowest turnout for a championship meeting saw just 8 drivers attend Ringwood Raceway for the 2 Litre English Championship which doubled up as the fourth qualifier for their British Championship in just over 2 weeks. This was also the first meeting in many years which did not have a single Dutch competitor involved, with just #404 Naglas from Lithuania the sole driver from mainland Europe racing. Despite the low numbers, this meeting had some excellent battles for position as well as some solid hits from all involved.

In what was a near-flawless performance, reigning European champion Cole locked down pole position for next month's big final with a win in every single points race, as well as the second Allcomers to win 8 of 9 races. The Northern Irishman claimed the final on the line from WCW teammate Looney who had led pretty much all the way in the English Championship race, but was pipped to the post; curiously, this means that all 4 qualifiers (Neil, Pepino, Jam & #911) won titles that weren't their own country's! The former Unlimited World & Points Champion wasn't left disappointed though as his haul of 70 points (including 5 second places) secured the final automatic points spot on the British grid. Sam M. was the only other point scoring winner in the DD, claiming third on the night as a result. Brett was the only other winner via last car running due to some questionable lag eliminating both Cole and #673 from the first Allcomers! :lol:

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Two Allcomers were also held. 5 points went to the DD winner.

Heat 1: Cole, Looney, Sam M., Jam, Jon, Brett
Heat 2: Cole, Looney, Sam M., Jam, Jon, Brett
Heat 3: Cole, Looney, Jon, Sam M., Naglas, Jam
Heat 4: Cole, Sam M., Looney, Jam, Spook, Jon, Brett
Heat 5: Cole, Sam M., Looney, Jam, Naglas
Heat 6: Cole, Looney, Jam, Spook, Sam M., Naglas, Brett

Final (English Championship): Cole, Looney, Sam M., Jon, Naglas, Brett, Jam

Allcomers 1: Brett (last car running)
Allcomers 2 (Unlims): Cole, Jam, Jon, Sam M.

DD: Sam M.

POINTS
1st: Cole - 80 points
2nd: Looney - 70 points
3rd: Sam M. - 68 points
4th: Jam - 49 points
5th: Jon - 39 points
6th: Brett - 32 points

Round 5 (World Qualifier 1)
Thirteen drivers attended the opening qualifying round for September's 2 Litre World Final at the deceptively dangerous Westhill Oval, known for its hidden posts and tight bends. The evening saw some superb wrecking and racing from all involved, with the meeting getting more crash-heavy as it went on, which everyone loves to see.

Already eager to secure pole for the showpiece occasion in 4 months' time was the reigning 2 Litre World Champion as Rik initially appeared to be attempting a maximum haul of 85 points thanks to 4 straight heat victories. This attempt was ended in the fifth race of the night as current Unlimited World Champion Miniman, incredibly making his first 2 Litre appearance of the season, got his sole win of the evening, but #997 stil managed a very impressive 68 points (17 off a maximum) thanks to his third in the final as well as the third Allcomers. Current European Champion Cole finished second 14 points back, largely due to his 4 second places (3 in a row and 1 in the final) as well as claiming the second Allcomers. Former Unlimited World Champ Looney was the highest points scorer not to win a race, with two seconds and a third taking him to third in the standings. Hunter & Sam M. surprisingly tied for fourth on 46 points, with Sam claiming a heat and the final whereas Hunter won the DD, which ended up as a Team Klepdeksel war with all 4 of its current members left at the end! Speaking of that Dutch team, Storm won the first Allcomers for them to complete the list of winners tonight.

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Three Allcomers were also held. Drivers in italics finished but did not score points. 5 points went to the DD winner.

Heat 1: Rik, Looney, Cole, Miniman, Mr. T-Bone, Stwarm, Hunter, Storm, Jam, Colin

Round 6 (World Qualifier 2)
A new season low of only seven drivers attended Ipswich for the second 2 Litre World Final qualifier and sixth graded round of the season. Drakey (previously Tubsy) and Ryano made their first appearances in the grades meetings this year after a while away. Despite the low numbers there was some excellent racing and wrecking going on; so much so that one heat only had 2 finishers! :o

Sam M. was the winner of the meeting thanks to his heat and final victories as well as four second places! Jam followed behind with three heat wins in succession, a rare DD win and the first Allcomers. Looney finished third thanks to his victory in heat 6 as well as the ramp race, with Ryano completing the winners' list to eventually finish in fourth.

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Two Allcomers were also held. 5 points went to the DD winner.

Heat 1: Sam M., Jam, Jon, Looney

Round 7 (World Qualifier 3)
A much improved turnout of 13 drivers (12 scored, 337 Spook was excluded from the points as he arrived after the final and did not win the DD) attended the unusual banked surface of Birmingham Wheels Raceway for round 7 of this season's graded championship. The meeting doubled up as the significant third and penultimate World Final qualifier, so it was good to see 217 Tilson and Irish Championship winner 910 Neil make their first WQ outings of the season tonight.

An incredible battle at the top saw the winner of the meeting decided in the DD as reigning European champion Cole bested his World Class Wreckers teammate Brett to win the meeting by 3 points! The Northern Irishman claimed two heats, the final and the first Allcomers alongside that vital DD to net 71 points, but a rare rodding performance from #786 saw him claim three heats and eventually end up on 68 points. Reigning World, Points and British champion (what a mouthful!) Rik was the only non-WCW winner in the heats, claiming heat 4 on his way to a haul of 62 points and third place on the night. Ryano was the only other winner in the last Allcomers race.

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Three Allcomers were also held. 5 points went to the DD winner.

Heat 1: Cole, Brett, Rik, Sam, Neil, Colin, Looney, Jon, Drakey
Heat 2: Brett, Cole, Looney, Rik, Colin, Jon, Neil, Drakey

Round 8 (World Qualifier 4)
A slightly lower but still adequate turnout of 10 drivers attended the historic Wimbledon Stadium for round 8 of this year's 2 Litre Grades championship. This meeting doubled up as the fourth and final 2 Litre World Qualifier and provided not just some quality racing action as drivers chased down the points for the all-important grid places, but some absolutely remarkable hits with assistance from those notorious posts.

It was a case of consistency rather than all out victory which decided tonight's winner as Ryano came out on top to secure his place on the grid for next month's 2 Litre World Final; despite winning four heats, Cole's failure to finish heat 6 and a lowly fifth place in the final saw him lose out to the man from the West Country who picked up a heat win alongside four second places, including the final. A late arrival stole the show though as Miniman, who only competed in the last 4 races of the night, was the driver who took out Cole in the aforementioned heat and went on to claim both the final and DD to get into the World Final top 10, having started the evening outside of the qualifying places. Sam's win in heat 6 was significant as it all but confirmed his pole position for the 2 Litre World Final. The sole Allcomers turned into a DD, which explains why Jon won it! :lol:

Top 10 scored in heats and final. An Allcomers was also held. 5 points went to the DD winner.

Heat 1: Cole, Ryano, Sam, Jon, Colin, Looney, Brett
Heat 2: Ryano, Cole, Looney, Sam, Colin, Jon, Brett, Jam
Heat 3: Cole, Ryano, Colin, Brett, Jon, Looney
Heat 4: Cole, Ryano, Colin, Sam, Jon, Brett, Looney
Heat 5: Cole, Looney, Colin, Ryano, Jon, Sam, Brett
Heat 6: Sam, Jon, Ryano, Colin, Miniman, Brett

Final: Miniman, Ryano, Jon, Colin, Cole, Sam, Brett

Allcomers: Jon, Miniman

DD: Miniman

POINTS
1st: Ryano - 70 points
2nd: Cole - 61 points
3rd: Colin - 57 points
4th: Jon - 55 points
5th: Sam - 47 points
6th: Brett - 37 points
7th=: Looney, Miniman - 31 points
9th: Jam - 3 points
10th: Spook - 0 points

Round 9 (European Qualifier 1)
A great turnout of 13 drivers at the quick Ter Apel (Short) Oval produced some superb racing and wrecking action for the ninth graded round of the season which doubled up as the first of three European Championship qualifiers. The night saw a league debutant in the form of Polish driver 777 Stan, who used his advantage of being a white grade to all but the fullest!

Unfortunately for Stan, he couldn't use that advantage completely as he finished 4 points behind the recently dethroned World Champion Rik. Despite claiming the last two heats and the final in a remarkable debut hat-trick, the Pole's failure to finish in the points in heat 3 - the only points race 997 won, also claiming an Allcomers - proved fatal as the Dutchman's triplet of second places (including the final) secured him yet another meeting victory. Stwarm also had the advantage of a low grade as the yellow top won two heats on his way to finishing third. Colin claimed the opening heat but couldn't get the consistency to mount a challenge on the top of the points table. Pennywise and Spook won an Allcomers each with Pepino rounding off the night with a DD victory that was capped by one of the smoothest winning hits seen on the latter Allcomers winner.

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Three Allcomers were also held. Drivers in italics finished but did not score points. 5 points went to the DD winner.

Heat 1: Colin, Stan, Cole, Rik, Pepino, Looney, Stwarm, Pennywise, Hunter, Sam, Spook, Jon, Jam
Heat 2: Stwarm, Rik, Jam, Spook, Looney, Pepino, Stan, Pennywise, Hunter, Cole, Sam, Colin

Heat 4: Stwarm, Stan, Rik, Jam, Hunter, Spook, Pepino, Jon, Pennywise, Cole
Heat 5: Stan, Rik, Stwarm, Jam, Pepino, Cole, Spook, Colin, Sam, Jon, Hunter, Pennywise, Looney
Heat 6: Stan, Jam, Stwarm, Spook, Hunter, Rik, Sam, Pennywise, Pepino

Final: Stan, Rik, Cole, Jam, Pepino, Hunter, Sam, Stwarm, Jon, Pennywise, Looney

Round 10 (European Qualifier 2)
A lower turnout of 9 drivers at the destructive Speedway Emmen saw some excellent racing and wrecking from all involved as round 10 of the 2 Litre Grades doubled up as the second qualifier for December's European Championship meeting at Warneton.

With current British champion Rik absent, the reigning European champion Cole surged back with a fine performance to take the meeting. The Northern Irishman won 3 heats, claimed second in two others and finished third in the final to claim the honours with a haul of 69 points. Following him 7 points back in second was Hunter, whose pair of heats contributed largely to his 62 point total. Poland's Stan proved his Ter Apel meeting was no fluke with a heat win, the final and two Allcomers to finish third. Sam claimed the first Allcomers and drew the DD with late arrival Colin, and Jon completed the winners' list with a hard fought victory in Allcomers 3.

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Four Allcomers were also held. 5 points went to the DD winner; in the event of a draw after 30 minutes, 2 points would be distributed to the remaining drivers.

Heat 1: Cole, Stan, Hunter, Looney, Stwarm, Sam, Jon, Jam
Heat 2: Stan, Cole, Stwarm, Hunter, Sam, Looney, Jon, Jam
Heat 3: Cole, Hunter, Stwarm, Sam, Jon, Stan, Looney, Jam
Heat 4: Cole, Stwarm, Hunter, Stan, Jon, Sam, Looney, Jam
Heat 5: Hunter, Cole, Stwarm, Jam, Jon, Sam, Looney

Re: 2019 Graded Meetings Results

Round 11 (European Qualifier 3)
The final LFS Bangers regular grade meeting saw 14 drivers attend the dangerous Boerhaar oval with its race wrecking ditches to chase the final points for December's European Championship at Warneton. A fifteenth driver, newcomer 675 Beatdrop, attempted to race but unfortunately his poor internet rendered him unable to do so.

It was a surprise winner of the final ever regular grade meeting with Dean coming out on top despite not winning a points race (he did win two Allcomers though). A second in both the final and a heat as well as back to back thirds secured him the win with 60 points, and he was followed by fellow Moat Mob member Shane, who won the final and probably would have won the meeting had he not failed to finish heat 6. Storm used his status as the lone white roof to finish third, picking up a heat along the way. Fellow Dutchmen Rik and Mr. T-Bone claimed two heats and the Allcomers and DD respectively.

There was also a title decided tonight, and that was the 2019 2 Litre Grades Points title. Only the most remarkable of results would have denied current European champion Cole the title, entering the meeting with a 104 point lead over Sam in second. Two heat wins gave him his second 2 Litre title following last year's win at Warneton, and everyone at LFS Bangers would like to congratulate him on taking the title with an absolutely dominant display over the 2 Litre Grades meetings; had he not had internet issues in the final meeting meaning he could only score 28 points, he surely would have surpassed 600 this evening to maintain his incredible average of over 60 points a meeting. He can still do it at the European Championship, but he has to retain his title to do so. It's a genuine shame he won't be able to wear the silver roof for many meetings.

Top 10 scored in heats and final. Three Allcomers were also held. Drivers in italics finished but did not score points. 5 points went to the DD winner.
