Not quite; see Sandhays 2012, where I managed the same feat, by a narrow margin.
I eked out time largely by soaring the very slightly helpful air over the upwind hedge, while others searched for minimal thermal assistance + some mishaps. The event sticks in my mind, having my vehicle become stuck in the soft ground conditions and having to eventually be towed off the field by tractor assistance!
Cliff made a super job of finding and using the splendid lift last week - with a model that is far from being a 'floater'. My congratulations too.
