Heard the commentator say there were 15 registered competitors going into the 2nd class runs. There were a few problems for people that depleted the entry. Tim & Will Mason were in the wars, Stewart Robb had a CWP that was slowly destroying itself etc etc
There were a few missing from the entry - eg Willem Toet |

I can see 3 that I know didn't show, maybe 5 or 6. Then 3 definitely didn't start the event after practice problems.
Looked at from another angle, qualification wasn't easy. Paul |

There were more registered British Championship and Hill Climb Leaders contenders signed on than at each of the two Doune events last year.
But as Paul says, qualification was not easy. A damp and greasy Doune is possibly the most difficult of all hills. Always a good place to visit with a nice friendly organising team. |

From a spectating point of view, I can understand the qualifying comments
run offs looked v. difficult too. However, everyone looked very committed. Has it got really competitive this year ? |

I think it's a case with Doune that some drivers know they won't go well there and prefer(/can only afford) to only make one trip up a year and assume that the other two rounds will be the scores they drop. |
