The 42nd running of this legendary indoor race, which has attracted over 350 entries, the Xray driver laid down the fastest time of the rocket round qualifying format in the third of the four rounds of qualifying. The Top 3 times would in fact all come from Q3, with Awesomatix’s Sam Isaacs securing second on the grid with a time 6/10th off that of the Canadian. Schumacher’s Michal Orlowski was a further 1/10th of a second off locking the European visitor into 3rd on the grid. With 47 races making up a packed schedule each round, Kemp Anderson would top the final qualifier with his fastest run but he stays P4 on the grid ahead of the Xray of Alexander Hagberg with Chase Lemeiux completing the Top 6. In Mod 1:12, it was Isaacs who took the TQ with the fastest time in Q4 ahead of Anderson. Hagberg will start third followed by Ollie Payne, Donny Lia and Orlowski.
