The final day in the 2012 Frostbite Series.

Slightly warmer and sunnier than yesterday, the wind still in the south F2 - F3.

Ivan set the first course: Ss - Cs - Ap - Bs - 18s - Ss x 2 laps.  The course was a change from the usual - to make more interesting, Ivan's words.

We used the same course for the next two races.  The second race was 2 laps and the third race just one lap.  Slippers won the second race but Ian & John won the third by a few seconds on corrected time.

John and Ian alternate helming and crewing.

The Overall Series Winner is Dave (Slippers) Holmes of Jetwind fame on his Topper.
