The day started out a bit scary when ‘Stretchy’ Waters got behind the mike, but he was quickly removed by Cathy who read out the results and announcements for the day. With the barbecue cooking and warm-up out of the way it was time for the racing to begin.

Donna called “time keepers ready” and gave the wave, Bill blew the whistle and Michael started the race.
