…ran ever so slightly wide exiting a chicane, and Olly capitalised on what may have been his only opportunity to get into the lead to position his car inch perfectly and squeeze though a gap of barely two car widths wide. A better pass you are unlikely to see anywhere; it required surgical precision and mutual respect between the two drivers. The pair raced closely for the entire 8 minute race and crossed the finishing line a fraction of a second apart. Elsewhere in the race there were other battles raging, including that between Mark Stiles and Chris Kerswell for…

…Modified. Chris Kerswell found his focus to join Olly on the front row just ahead of Dave Spashett and Mark Stiles. The A-final was a much cleaner race than that seen at the first round of the championship. Jefferies briefly lost the lead to Kerswell in the early stages, but within a lap he had regained the top spot and proceeded to lap the entire field on his way to victory. David Spashett finished 2nd ahead of Kerswell and Stiles in a fairly uneventful race. In the Sport class, Keith Robertson was TQ, but a coming together with 2nd qualifier…

…A-final driving a Reedy powered Yokomo car. Chris Kerswell was 3rd for Zen Racing ahead of Adam Catchpole and Mick Farrell, both running CRC’s. The A-final saw a thrilling race for the lead and eventual win between Ben and Mark. Mark applied pressure in the early stages before falling back slightly as Ben settled into a groove. However, a mistake and resulting crash from Ben promoted Mark to the lead, after which he would come under sustained pressure from Ben who just couldn’t find a way pass. It was excellent racing between the two drivers with Chris Kerswell lurking in…
