Round 2 started with a full capacity entry, the new corners
from the 1st round proving popular with the drivers, making the
track space bigger and racing closer. This
round would see a very fast layout.
1st to hit the track again where the M-Rage Mini
TC’s, again these proved to be really good fun to watch and the drivers seemed
to really enjoy the racing as well, more spec rules are being added to keep it
close racing and keep the costs low enough to enjoy as well. Mark Rodgers was able to take the win from
Mark Young over 2 legs by virtue of a faster time after both had a win a piece,
Tom Hampson completing the podium.
Tamiya Trucks really sets the bar when it comes to the fun
factor and all did so, some excellent close racing throughout the field treated
those watching to some superb displays of sportsmanship and many a smile and
handshake at the conclusion of the finals, Alex Carter taking the overall win
from Adam Southgate again by virtue of a faster time as both had 1 leg win each
with Martin Ewing taking 3rd.
GT12 would see champion elect Owen Smith continuing to stretch
his legs early doors, and taking his advantage into the Finals, but the one to
watch was his younger sibling Darcie Smith who would line up 2nd
behind him, Owen went on to take both Final Legs with Darcie finishing 2nd
ahead of a hard pushing Adam Downing.
17.5 Blinky TC, Billy Fletcher would set the fastest FTQ time
in each round to line up on Pole ahead of Dani Young, both finals Billy took the
win comfortably with a fast moving Vasiliy taking 2nd and Mark
Trinder starting in 7th place rounding out the podium.
13.5 Blinky TC, was extremely close, Ashley Wiffen set the
FTQ pace in rounds 1-3 with Jamie Hickin taking FTQ in round 4 by 300ths of a second
to snatch pole position, the Finals would see Jamie lead away and Ashley lay on
heavy pressure, despite this Jamie held on to take the win ahead of Ash with
Phil Vickers finishing 3rd overall.
