This needs a thread of its own rather than being tucked away here. Absolutely awesome, is what it is.

Thanks so much Psykit, and thanks a lot for organising the race! It's been a lot of fun to be able to run it, had a blast trying to work out whether I was the right side of the rings or not when approaching some of the stations
I slipped down a place, but I managed to improve from the last couple of races, so I'll take that
Huge congratulations to those on the podiums, and it's great I think that even after all these years you still learn new things almost every race I'll second (third?) that. Fantastic race, glorious graphics and some truly ferocious (in a good way) competition. Shame I couldn't get an opportunity to race at the weekend but I doubt I could have improved much and bow to those in the top spots, especially Shaye for his fantastic regulation time and Bruski for sciencing the spit out of this thing and proving once again that the spreadsheet can be mightier than the frameshift drive (if people didn't watch it before and are now scratching their heads at that unlimited time then you probably need to go and watch this).
I'll give it a day or two before I do the championship leaderboard in case there are any last minute disputes.

Really pleased with my result for this one, and I know I can go faster if those fabled speed fairies are smiling, but in stark contrast to PolarBruski’s genius spreadsheet and cunning approach to the Unlimited class, here’s my in depth planning notes.
Do you mean the live Lavecon one with pinned scraps of paper or the one that was scribbled on a blackboard in chalk?
The paper one at the pub or similar but I distinctly remember beer glasses. So breakfast yes?
Championship points have now been re-calculated ..
