The last running of the current layout and it was quite different after all the rain. We also had a very talent rich race entry this evening - just to get in the A tonight was a great achievement.
Richard Miller got TQ this evening while Oscar Keen had the fastest lap. Gareth Brewer got TQ and fastest lap in 4wd.
Oscar Keen managed to overtake Richard Miller on lap 2 only to have a incident 2 laps later. This left Richard out in front and being chased down by Oscar, Mark Keen and Kye Marshall. Oscar got within 3 seconds by the end he couldn’t catch Richard. Richard took the win, Oscar was second and Mark took third place.
The 4wd final was between Gareth Brewer and Ali Keser. Gareth was in front for much of the race until a few errors in the last couple of laps allowed Ali to catch and overtake. Ali was first and Gareth was second.
Brooke Marshall lead off the B-final and was expected to disappear into the distance. An unfortunate mistake on lap 2 however, let Harrison and Peter Robelou through and Nigel Harvie to close up. Brooke overtook Peter pretty quickly and then had a superb battle with Harrison; right up until Harrison made an error. Brooke, at this point created some space and eventually took the win. Harrison was 2nd and Nigel was 3rd.
Wes East, Paul Burt and Fraser Hodgson lead out the C-final and it was a battle between them for the podium places. Paul and Fraser were racing close together for much of the race and had a fun time chasing each other round. Wes made an early error but drove superbly consistent in his recovery drive, getting the fastest lap of the final to get in touch with Paul and Fraser by the end. Back markers allowed Paul to get a gap and he went on to take the win. Fraser had blip on the final lap which was all Wes needed to make the overtake. Wes finished second and Fraser was third.
We are racing this Sunday and then again next Tuesday. To book in for Sunday - see separate post.
