2017 Reliant Robins World Final Results

Postby Jon#606 » Fri 07 Jul 2017, 11:29 pm

The first LFS Bangers Reliant Robin World Final was held tonight at Taunton. Although only eight attended (with one driver departing before Heat 1 had even finished) it was still a very entertaining night, with the robin sets causing numerous rolls!

The meeting format had six qualifying heats which would decide the grid for the World Final. These results are below:

Heat 1: Silva (no other finishers)
Heat 2: Silva, Cap, Jon
Heat 3: Silva, Cap, Brett, Michal, Looney
Heat 4: Cap, Brett, Silva, Looney
Heat 5: Silva, Michal, Brett, Jon, Colin
Heat 6: Michal, Silva, Brett, Cap, Jon, Colin

Consequently, the grid for the 2017 Reliant Robin World Final was as follows:
27 Cap - - - - - - - - - - - - - 63 Silva
47 Michal - - - - - - - - - - - 786 Brett
870 Looney - - - - - - - - - - 606 Jon
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 66 Colin


There were battles throughout the seven car grid, but one important moment at the end decided the title's destination...

1st: Silva
2nd: Michal
3rd: Cap
Other finisher: Looney

In only his second meeting, Norwegian SIlva claimed his first world final (admittedly not the biggest but still) thanks to an unprecedented clutch failure on long time leader Cap with just one bend remaining for him to claim the title, allowing #63 to sneak through despite being two laps down on the graded points champion when the clutch burnt out! Michal also snuck past #27 to claim second before Looney pushed the undoubtedly disappointed Cap across the line to claim third.

Here are the results from the other races that took place tonight. Congratulations to all the winners of these and the qualifying heats.

Allcomers 1 (Reverse Race): Jon, Silva, Brett, Looney, Cap, Michal
Allcomers 2: Cap, Silva, Michal, Colin

DD: Michal

So, without further ado:
