Last night Casper the Clubbie started his long journey to his new life hillclimbing in the Carpathians.

He should reach his new kennel in Bucharest sometime on late Friday or Saturday where he will be looked after by his enthusiastic new keeper Radu Fenyo ("viperu" on here).

This is believed to be the first Radical in Romania but I bet that once the locals see how well Radu goes in one, there'll be more.

As you can see he's been upgraded with the LCM/Force chassis set up and aero package which contributed so much to the success of my old Prosport "Black Betty".




With a bit of luck Radu will keep us posted on his and Casper's adventures.

I'd been looking for those two. Had viewed them early in the year but for some obscure reason couldn't find my way back to them.

Last week-end I've entered in my first ever hillclimb event, the first double round of the Romanian Hillclimb Championship at Teliu, somewhere in the center of Romania:

http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msa=0&ms ... e9bf1c6347

It was an incredible experience, improving my time with every run from 2:12, 2:09, 2:05 while the best run of the hill was established by F3000 LOLA at 1:40.

Here are some pictures which I found with myself:

There's more pictures here (found by Lindsay, thank you):
