Matt Teager dominated Sunday’s race at the Grand Prix track in Crawley. He was easily fastest and lapped around six tenths faster than anyone else. His driving though was controversial, he was the best out there but seemed to feel that as everyone else was slower he had no qualms bumping them out of his way. It was this and a couple of yellow flag infractions that gave him three black flags over the event but he was still able to come away with the win.

The first round at Crawley saw Craig King come good having run to fourth in the Christmas race. His win and topping the two sessions put him comfortably top of the standings but he will not be able to defend his lead this time out. He is unable to attend and so this is the opportunity for others to catch up. Matt Teager returns having missed May and should be considered favourite due to his pace at Christmas.

The race will again be taking place at Crawley on one of their two tracks.

So 12 races in how have things changed in my rankings over the past 9 races? The championship battle has gone back and forth between the major drivers but this is about pace against teammates and general ability (plus possibly some deductions based on whininess).

So earlier in the year I made a list of the games I was looking forward to in the first six months of 2010. That list was populated by a lot of games that should have seen release last year but were scared by Call of Duty. In comparison the second half of 2010 is looking slightly empty but I am still catching up on the last six months so I don’t mind.

Last Sunday we had our first karting event of 2010 which also represents the first ever Talote Racing championship race (sad huh?). Information is going to be slightly short due to two things, first we had no-one to take photos and second we were not provided with any lap times barring our fastest as their printer was broken. We therefore had to just remember our fastest times
We turned up at the track and were led up to the second track (which we had never seen or raced before):

For the last four weeks I have been trialling the subscription service offered by the Independent. I have often felt that newspapers still hold value and was turned off the Times by both its online Pay-Per-day system for news articles and its blatant pro-tory message during the election. I therefore went with the newspaper that I read during college.
It was such a good deal as well, at least at trial stage. four pounds for a four week subscription. It then goes up to £5 a week for which you get the weekday papers plus the Saturday edition.

So last year I went to the Internet World conference at Earls Court unsure what I would find. I came out having visited many useful speeches from knowledgeable people about the Internet.

So a month ago we saw Microsoft introduce its browser ballot which popped up for everyone who had Internet Explorer picked as their default browser. So I had a look at the top five and some of the smaller picks in the ballot.
6. Apple Safari – I tested Apple’s browser at work yesterday and found it very slow, sure browsing speed was fast but the software itself kept stalling and smacked of software built mainly for another operating system.
5. Flock – Flock is the best of the smaller browsers. It allows you to keep an eye on your social networks with a style largely based on Firefox even borrowing the rendering engine

So a month ago I decided to test out every image editor I had ever heard of and then Craig gave me a couple more that I hadn’t. The aim was simple, I knew photoshop was brilliant but I wanted to see if I could get the features I needed without the £600 price tag. My intention was to run a series of tests across all the software devices and then report back. Unfortunately I ran out of time so my analysis is not as in depth as I would have liked but I can rank the software by my preference with my reasons.

I figure it would make sense to a do an annual F1 driver rankings that my friends can comment on or reply with their own lists. This would also make it possible to have some idea of how drivers are doing from season to season.
