Yesterday didnt have the same turnout as the first Summer Jams actually it was down by half but we made the most of who we had running one comp with a full field of 8 with one person to spare who dropped out because of car troubles. The prizes for this round were alot better also having a couple of bodies donated from one of the regulars John Miller and a body rims & tyres donated by Xratd of 07D and a signed MadMike poster donated by Chris ( Bling ) of the CDT, so first and second place were in for some good prizes and because of the low numbers and the mixed experience of the field there was plenty of chances to get your hands on one of the great prizes up for grabs, and with two of the Veterans of the sport judging Kev & Dave it was definately anyones comp.
Qualifying was messy showing that the nerves still play a big part in trying to get to the top with those who shouldve shined falling behind and those with less experience in the comp arena really steppin up... We had x3 qualifying rounds with the two best scores from the 3 rounds being added together and the worst score was dropped, the first round of qualifying for everybody seemed a bit shaky as I said even with the smaller crowd the competitors nerves still got the better of them but you definately saw people get more comfortable as the qualifying rounds went on now we ran the same track as last summer jams so apart from the two noobs to the rest of the field the track was familiar territory.
