08-12-15 Autumn League Round 8

GT12 Class
Dave Tomlinson was fastest in the GT12 class in the first qualifying round but it was Louis Parker who was top qualifier for the final after the three rounds, David Simpson was second and Gavin Maciver in third place.
In the final Louis got a bad start from pole position enabling David Simpson overtake, after a few laps Louis took the lead again and both drivers had a clean run for the rest of the race, Louis winning and David finishing second 0.63 seconds behind. Gavin Maciver was third a lap down, these three drivers being well clear of the rest of the field. A great race to watch.

Another excellent performance from Nick Bruty saw him make the A Final and take maximum points in F2.

The B Final was a close race between Bob Harley and in form Nick Wallace, Bob was first to the finishing line just under 2 seconds ahead of Nick.

In the C final Scott Lewis looked to have the race won but a couple of racing incidents in the final minute let Mike Simpson past and he went on to win with Scott finishing second and Courtney Orme an excellent third place.
The Club Chairman Rob Hambridge had problems with his car for most of the evening and had too retire after 9 laps.

Club Mardave Class
Jordan Galbraith after his victory last week started the evening well by being fastest in Round 1. His dad Paul had a convincing win in round 2 and in the last round of qualifying Mike Simpson put in a good drive to take pole position in the final. Paul was in second place, Jordan third and Richard Parker racing after a long lay off took fourth place.
The final was going to be close with so many drivers evenly matched, the lead changed hands several times during the race and after six minutes Mike Simpson was the winner, Jordan second just ahead of Richard Parker.

Next week is the final round of the superleague.
