Black Gold "Off Your Trolley" Derby-3rd October 2010
The third Black Gold "Off Your Trolley" Derby was held on 3.10.10.
An awesome day at City Forests Whites Road brought out the competitors and spectators. The few downpours we had made the track more interesting, adding the slide factor and mud!
The 24 competitors aged from 4 years to 56 years, were racing for the ultimate prize –the “King of the Hill” Trophy. The King of the Hill record was broken with the overall fastest run of the day made by Guy Wilson of Dunedin with a time of 1 minute 25 seconds, 4 seconds faster than April’s fastest time.
Judges –Duncan McCrostie (Kaitangata Bob Scott Memorial Hill Climb Champion) and Hamish Anderson (Clutha District Deputy Mayor) had the very difficult task of choosing the Most Original Trolley, won by Cody Murdoch and the Best Presented Driver and Trolley, won by Camden Jacobs.
Other winners: Nippers-Kori McDonald (2 to 7 years) (Nippers race a short course.) Zoomers-Logan Morrell (8 to 12 years) Sprinters-Callum Deans (13 to 15 years) Rockets-Guy Wilson (16 years plus)
Tanya Grant of the Balclutha Police, spent the day recording the racers speed with a Laser gun-the fastest speed of the day was recorded by Mike Jenson 67kph
