Civil War X Results

Postby Jon#606 » Fri 11 Jan 2019, 11:59 pm

Before I announce the results, please let me apologise for my "spaced out" mood during yesterday's meeting. I've been suffering from a cold all week and upon reflection I really shouldn't have taken part in the meeting, let alone ran it. The Light Brigade Final will stand despite the error of it being ran as a 12 lap race instead of a 15 lap race.

The tenth LFS Bangers Civil War saw 12 drivers deciding which army would win the war this year. The North were the holders, and the armies were as follows:

ARMIES Image

NORTH
90 Joey
474 Miniman
573 Shane
606 Jon
673 Sam M.
786 Brett
911 Cole


SOUTH
47 Michal
66 Colin
616 Jam
870 Looney
997 Rik


All races were for points, and only the Top 10 counted. Drivers who finished outside of the Top 10 are in italics. Points for each side after each race are listed after the race result. The DDs were limited to 10 minutes and in the event of no winner at 10 minutes, the most cars remaining won; 5 points were awarded in the event of a tie.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LIGHT BRIGADE
The smallest artillery took to the battlefield first, and despite slim North wins in the heats, the South claimed 4 of the top 5 places in the final and then won the DD to take a 22 point lead.

Heat 1: Miniman, Shane, Rik, Jam, Colin, Looney, Joey, Jon, Brett, Sam M. - N 29 - 26 S

Heat 2: Shane, Rik, Colin, Brett, Jam, Jon, Miniman, Sam M., Joey, Looney - N 31 - 24 S

Final:Rik, Shane, Michal, Jam, Colin, Cole, Jon, Sam M., Looney, Brett - N 44 - 66 S

DD: South - 10 points to South

FINAL LIGHT BRIGADE SCORE: N 104 - 126 S

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INFANTRY
The mid-range weaponry then entered the affray, and both heats were shared between the two sides, although the North had a two point lead. However, just as it was in the Light Brigade final the South stormed the Infantry final with a 1-2 and 3 of the top 5 places. The North had to make up a 40 point gap to keep the title.

Heat 1: Rik, Jam, Sam M., Shane, Miniman, Colin, Looney, Brett, Joey - N 26 - 28 S

Heat 2: Cole, Rik, Sam M., Jam, Jon, Colin, Shane, Looney - N 28 - 24 S

Final: Colin, Rik, Colin, Shane, Jam, Michal, Jon, Brett, Looney - N 44 - 64 S

DD: DD drawn (2-2 after 10 minutes) - 5 points each to North & South

FINAL INFANTRY SCORE: N 103 - 121 S

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TANKS
The heavy artillery closed the meeting, and the North finally got a solid lead over the two heats for an 8 point gap. A crucial 1-2 finish in the final combined with two other points finishes saw them get to within 10 points of the South, meaning that a DD win was the only way to deny the title from going red. Amazingly, they did it...

Heat 1: Brett, Rik, Colin, Joey, Sam M., Looney, Shane - N 27 - 22 S

Heat 2: Rik, Cole, Brett, Jam, Colin, Shane, Sam M. - N 26 - 23 S

Final: Cole, Brett, Rik, Shane, Colin, Jam - N 60 - 38 S

DD: North - 10 points to North

FINAL TANKS SCORE: N 123 - 83 S

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FINAL OVERALL SCORE: NORTH 330 - 330 SOUTH

A decade of Civil War meetings on LFS Bangers ended in quite possibly the weirdest result possible: a tie. Remarkably, despite solid victories in the Light Brigade and Infantry divisions, the South just couldn't replicate it in the Tanks where they were battered senseless by the North. To give credit to the reds though, they took on a team of 7 with 5 and got the same points total. Rik was unsurprisingly the standout driver in the meeting, with an Infantry and Tank heat win as well as the Light Brigade final and amazingly did not finish outside the top 3 in ANY race, resulting in a massive 109 points towards the South total! Colin's Infantry final win as well as a complete set of finishes gave him 82 points to the reds. For the whites, Shane was their best performed with a Light Brigade heat win as well as second in its final to finish on 79 points. The other race winners for the North were Cole collecting 3 wins in the Infantry second heat, the Light Brigade final and the Tanks final, Miniman in the Light Brigade's first heat, and surprisingly Brett in the Tanks' first heat.

So without further ado:
