Went down to Victoria for the weekend torun in the final round of the VRC with Derek Reynolds in his EVO 5.

The event was fully pacenoted with pacenoting done on Saturday and competition on Sunday.

Roads were awesome, with some very twisty sections and some fast flowing sections. And there were no humps, a few crests though.

We managed to chew through a set of tyres in the first half of the event, and when I mean chew the tyres were virtually slicks after only 2 stages. Made for some interesting grip on stages 3 and 4. Put some new Dunlops on for the second half of the event, a big improvement, mainly less spins

We put on a good show at the first speccy point, hope someone got it on video.

We ended up 6th outright with the Reeves' first and second.

Here's the unofficial scores.
