2016 Points

Here is the 2016 Rumble on the Runway summary of each class as it unfolded:

In Super Pro no mystery here, Bill Nesbitt from Victoria dominated the field with his 150 point advantage over Courtenay’s Ken Anderson making him another bridesmaid for the 2nd year in a row. But it might have been a different story if Parksville’s Bill MacDonald had registered for points, we will never know.
 
In Sportsman pretty well the same story: Victoria’s Clint Neargarth repeated as champion for his 2nd year in a row with a very late last race charge from Rob Baxter that could have caught him if it wasn’t for the fact that Clint was right beside him matching him round for round to meet in the finals of the last race. An interesting note is they both agreed to waive their dial ins and go at it heads up with the same dial in so no handicap tree and it was Mr Baxter that came out ahead.
 
The real story was in Pro. Ron Graham from Courtenay came into the final weekend with a near insurmountable lead of over 5 rounds over Duncan’s Matt Weremi. 6-7 rounds over Greg Wright and Bill Jaimeson from Victoria, Pt Alberni’s Logan Walcot and Ladysmith’s Wade Lahaise and in order to catch the points leader someone had to take him out early. Then the inevitable happened both Ron and Wade lost early allowing the others to march round by round devouring the comfortable points lead that Ron had accumulated. The final day proved quite eventful as Ron stewed on the sidelines. Mathematically it came down to only Matt that could catch him because Ron’s clutch 1st round win put him safe from the others. It came down to once the enemy in Logan Walcot to now the ally had to race Matt Weremi. The pressure was on Matt, he had to win to be in or if he lost he was regulated to second place. It was all on the table in one race and as needed he captured his first Pro series championship by displacing Logan and passing Ron by a mere 1 round.
 
To all champions and runner ups: Congratulations on another great season! Thanks to everyone for helping us set a record season of attending and making our event the pleasure it has been. If we had another race or another round or if it got rained out on the final day the results might have been different but alas the fat lady has sung and rumble in your pipes for next season.
