Just two weeks after hosting the European Championships, Robinhood Raceway in Blyth, Nottinghamshire, England welcomed the sixth annual oOple Invernational - the first since the passing of founder Jimmy Storey.

In addition to the on-track competition, typical Invernational fun events also took place - like the Vintage class, Ring of Fire jump, Oval Speed Challenge, and the Beer Race - during which all participants were encouraged to dress like Jimmy.

On Saturday night, all in attendance were treated to a party headlined by local band the Four Authors, along with a set from DJ Kirky.

After racing was completed, three deserving champions were crowned: Chris Doughty in 4WD, Ben Jemison in 2WD, and Adam Skelding in Short Course.

Jimmy's widow, Vicky, put together a magnificent race report in her late husband's memory, including many more brilliant photos in addition to those borrowed for this post. Read the full story here:
