Already in qualifying the Shepherd drivers Kostas Sidiropoulos and Bill Lykaris showed a strong performance with their Velox V10 qualifying themselves for the A final in second and fifth position respectively. In the 45min main final both Shepherd drivers had a great run with Kostas managin to take over the lead after 34 minutes when the leader suffered a  stalling engine. At that time Bill moved to second position with a save distance to the 3rd placed Dimitris Dimitriou (Xray).
