| New Photo added to Photo Gallery A photo of Manuel Babjar has been added to the Germany PAL Photos page of the SMK Photo Gallery. Many thanks for the photo Manuel. New Members Welcome to... Robert Hill, USA (NTSC 222nd, USA 109th, Contender E) Stefan Luich, USA (NTSC 233rd, USA 118th, Apprentice F) New World Records No new World Records this week... Movement PAL Activity: #9 Manuel Babjar makes a small cut to his Ghost Valley 2 course time with NBT to kick start August's training. #29 Frederic Duarte-Leite returned to SMK this month, perhaps to put in some early CDE training also, with a bunch of strong new records and NBT skills. #36 Ben Allen put more depth into some PRs of his and is making a volume of cut on average finish. He is extending his lead from Sean and picking up the pace towards Alvin. #39 Gene Tagliabue, the Champion of Australia continues to fast improve his pace and close the gap to rivals ahead with continued strength since previous weeks. He is in a position to gain more ranks to the mid 30s very soon. #58 James Tagliabue, Australia's Non-NBT strongman this week is fighting well despite snes pad difficulties with another set of PRs crushing his previous ones and landing in the Top 60 of PAL, also reaching the first of Belgian the rivals. #74 John Kennedy of Australia improves his Ghost Valley 1 5-lap PR. #110 Samuel Gomez has battled hard this week and is improving his overall level on his way to the Top 100s, also passing Finnish Champion Tuomas Nuutilainen. #241 Lindsay Molenaar has had her first solid attempts at hitting PRs with Bowser and is making a success of it so far. Just one position ahead is an old friend, also a target to pass no doubt when Bowser picks up the pace and she hits more tracks. The wooden spoon may land in someone else's hands at the CDE... NTSC Activity: #6 Chris Balch, the Champion of Canada sets two PRs on Choco Island 1 with NBT, and potential is there for the fastlap to go down further. #16 Ha Nyan of Japan drives a cut for his Ghost Valley 2 fastest lap. #117 Samuel Gomez improves his NTSC side of PRs also alongside of PAL and is showing similar levels of skill as he aims towards higher ranks. |
