A great start to the new Autumn League with some incredibly close racing and maximum league points for James Hart, Nick Bruty and Selina Woods.

Qualifying
James Hart was the top qualifier in the GT12 class with 34 laps with Louis Parker second and Gavin Maciver third both 1 lap down.
Nick Bruty and Nick Wallace had some tremendous races in “battle of the Nick’s” during all three qualifying rounds, both drivers getting 31 laps with Nick Bruty being the victor and securing a well earned place in the A Final.
Selina Woods was the highest placed driver in division 3 followed by Courtney Orme.
Mike Simpson was top qualifier in the club V12 Mardave class, Paul Galbraith was a lap down.

Finals
The Mardave final produced one of the closest racing for several months, with Dave Tomlinson leading there was a superb race for second place between Mike Simpson, Paul Galbraith and Joshua Galbraith. During the middle of the race these three were only separated by a few inches for about fifteen laps when Mike made an error letting the other two past to eventually finish in these positions.
Paul was straight out for the next race and won the GT12 C Final by 4 laps from division 3 drivers Selina Woods in second and Courtney Orme in third place. A good start to the league for Selina with maximum points.
In the GT12 B Final in form Nick Wallace starting from pole position gradually pulled out a lead from the rest of the field with some accurate driving. Behind him Matt Popejoy and Bob Harley were fighting for second place, with a small gap between them Matt put in two great laps at the end to finish in second place with Bob third. It was also good to see the Club Chairman Rob Hambridge return to form and take fourth place just 0.45 seconds in front of Scott Lewis in another nail biting finish.
The last race was the GT12 A Final where the ultra fast and consistent James Hart had another win followed by a fine drive by Louis Parker to take second place. Gavin Maciver was third just six seconds adrift of Louis and Nick Bruty took fourth place and maximum points in division 2 – a great drive Nick!
A very exciting evenings racing – can it get any better than this!
