Hi Alfather,

Thank you & I am sure you will have some good Video of this great race, it truely is a great outing & when you have a real competition Between some top teams & in the other Divisions at one stage 2nd, 3rd & 4th were all together.

While it is a great race there are some things that are indeed a worry, after being promised that the chief organizor Tony Mogis, would help us make sure that everything was smooth & we would have no problems, one of his Henchman told us he was to busy before the race & could not talk to us.

He may well be a Hero in some peoples eyes, SElf imposing himself & the team of Organizors with Laur'eats, to my way of thinking & I think the rest of the Worlds, Laur'eats are awarded after events not prior to, thats a very much, in the look how great we are syndrome, yes it is a great event & I will always recommend that skaters, at least go there once in their life & do the event.

Bont team give there congratulations to Poli RPM & lead by two of skatings great Gentlemen & stalwats Mattheui Boher & Pascal Briand, who not only responded to our early pressure, but then attacked us & ecked out a 1 lap lead.

Ben Alchin recorded the fastest ever official lap on Le Mans at 6 min 14 sec, skating solo with the hill at over 40 KMPH, there was previous talk in other years of Tristan Loy, of a 6 min 10 by self team timming, but they admitted he took a short cut through a prohibited area, which we Questioned, and were told, they would have an official placed there, but the official soon dissappeared & opponents were taking the short cut, but Ben Alchins Lap was a full official track effort, more information will follow on the wheel configeration, that this fastest ever official lap was created on.

Also instead of the top seeded teams being in Pit Boxes close to each other, Poli RPM change box was at the start of the Pits area & Bonts towards the end, about 250 meters further on, which gave the Poli RPM team an advantage in our team skaters opinion, I tried to tell them it was not so, to wipe out excuses, but on going up in the Grandstand & overviewing the entire area, I had to agree with them, that everyone skating past the Poli RPM change Area was still moving, we had the slowing down skaters in our Zone & the ones turning off the track, which made it difficult for us to identify our skaters & dodge all the going slow skaters, who had handed over their battons.

Now being a man of principle & a great believer in fair play & an Eye for an Eye & a tooth for a tooth, I put the self Oscar awarding organizors & our French officials to the test, Two English speaking French lady officials heard our protest out & requested the Organiozor Tony Mogis to come & disscuss blatant infringement of the rules, by the leading team. " He proved to be a man whose principles left a lot to be desired, by refusing to discuss with oyr team.

So as the officials said, put it in Writing & pay the 35 Euro, they said why wait till 4 hours to go, well as you may well remember Bont was Disqualified for not understanding the paperwork 3 years ago & while 2 laps ahead were told they were disqualified with less than 1 hour to go. They never even had the decency to inform us of the outcome & at least refund the 35 Euro when they were blatantly wrong & we were correct, Obligatory used in a sentence means Mandatory or Binding.

Now section B Preamblee 2 The "Roller Parade" is OBLIGATORY, it goes on to say for all team members, our team was dodging learneer skaters, while out in the sun for approx 1 1/2 hours, after one lap of the circuit, they asked if they could leave the track, one was grabbed by the arm by an Official & told they could not, well the two Dutch members of Poli were at the track & did not partake & the other members of the Poli team that won were not at the track & arrived later, this was one of the Rules Bont lost the event on 3 years earlier.

So a definate lack of Principles when the blatant rule breakers are French Teams.

Also you need rwo teams with you, a couple of times when the pressure was on, gaps were increased when another one of the other 2 Poli Mens teams eased up & had a fresh strong men, give them a big lap, very nice indeed when you are going for it.

Althogh concerned about a number of Points we must once again stress the Poli RPM were the deserved winners in a great dogfight & Fabian Hascout kept doing fast lap after fast lap, we killed off their use of the ex great racer Frank Cardin, when he was well & truely gaped & they pulled him out of the equation, we lost because we were let Down by our own skaters who were unnavailable, & a serious Injury not recovered from last year & a last minute World Games call up.

Cheryl Begg spent one month going through the obligatory rules & regulations dotting every i & crossing every t, even to the extent that we had a rubbish bag out in the area at the back section of our pit & cleaned up our mess & all nthe others in the area, in a sealed plastic Bag, as far as the eye could see, we were the only ones who done this correctly.

SO FOR THE SELF OSCAR AWARDING PEOPLE, A WORD OF ADVICE, PLEASE GET RID OF YOUR TIME CONSUMMING & VERY INTIMIDATING REGULATIONS, AS YOU ARE NOT SERIOUS ABOUT ENFORCING THEM, WHEN FRENCH TEAMS INFRINGE, BUT THEY APPEAR TO BE THERE AS AN OUT, JUST IN CASE A FOREIGN TEAM, IS ABOUT TO WIN. THEN YOU BRING OUT THE HEAVIES & PULL THE RUG FROM UNDER OUR FEET.

I HAD TO ENDURE THE CRAP YOU TOLD US 3 YEARS AGO, TONY MOGUS, YOU ACTED AS A COWARD RIDING AWAY FROM US ON YOUR MOTORBIKE & REFUSING TO TALK, THEN YOU ACTED AS A MAN WHOSE PRINCIPLES ARE VERY QUESTIONABLE, WHEN YOU DID NOT EVEN REPLY TO OUR WRITTEN PROTEST, I SHUT UP ABOUT IT THERE & THEN, SO AS TO NOT HAVE OUR TEAM PENALIZED, BUT I THINK THE TRUTH NEEDS TOLD NOW!.

YOU MADE THE RULES, WE FOLLOWED THEM TO THE VERY PADANTIC END OF THE EARTH, EVEN NOT FOLDING THE NUMBERS & PUTTING 6 PINS ON EACH, OTHERS TOOK NO NOTICE OF YOUR RULES & WERE NOT PENALIZED, YOUR CREDIBILITY MAY AS WELL HAVE BEEN FLUSHED DOWN THE TOILET, ALONG WITH YOUR DICTATORIAL RULES & REGULATIONS.

NO I AM NOT ANGRY ABOUT THIS YEARS RESULT, WE WERE BEATEN BUY A GOOD TEAM & LET DOWN ULTIMATELY BY OUR OWN PEOPLE, ITS 3 YEARS AGO WHEN WE WON & WERE BLATANTLY ROBBED, THAT I AM STILL VERY ANGRY ABOUT & THE COWARDICE SHOWN BY A BIG BRAVE MAN 3 YEARS AGO READING THE RIOT ACT, WHO BEHAVED LIKE A FIELD MOUSE 3 YEARS LATER.

We have some very interesting data, on the Bont Teams performance to release about the race, which will follow.

Cheers
Bill
