Fairbridge Challenge Cup Charity Event
12 June, 1999

	This event arranged by the Inner City Children’s charity FAIRBRIDGE and sponsored by JCT600 (regional distributors for Porsche, Chrysler and Jeep) was to raise money for the charity and provide a great mornings entertainment for the businesses that entered teams for the event. Only two drivers from the entire field of 8 x 4 racer teams had raced a slot car before in their lives, so the field was set for a high learning curve and lots of fun.

The race was a straight segmented sprint of 8 x 7 minute segments. As the results show, all teams had their up’s and down’s but all had some drivers with future superstar potential. Procter & Gamble ran strong from the start with Croft Circuit starting on the worst lane and having major drams in the first segment. After the first disastrous run on lane 8 Croft Circuit came on strong and ran towards the front in most segments, winning the race by 25 laps overall. Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth positions could not have been much closer if they had planned it.

A great Race and Great prizes for the outright winners Croft Circuit.

Many thanks to JCT 600 for sponsoring the event which proved a great hit with all competitors and introduced more people to the great sport of Slot Car Racing.
