Finals
As usual it was the Mardave Final up first where Jordan Galbraith took an early lead from third place on the grid and was in command of the race with Mike Simpson and Paul Galbraith trying to chase him down. Unfortunately Jordan’s car slowed down a little near the end of the race letting Mike get by, these two racing feet apart for the final few laps with Mike crossing the finishing line 2.49 second ahead, both drivers on 48 laps, Paul was third a lap down.

Scott Lewis was on pole for the GT12 C Final but the star of the race was Selina Woods with an excellent drive to overtake Scott and go on to win the race on 45 laps with Scott and Courtney Orme second and third one lap down. Well done Selina! – can anyone beat her in the next round?

The GT12 B Final was a good race with all the drivers going well, Dave Tomlinson was the driver who came out on top scoring 55 laps to win, Nick Bruty was second on 53 laps and a super drive from Nick Wallace earned him third place on 52 laps.

In the A Final Darren Ford was the closest to catching James Hart with some high speed driving, James was the winner with a tremendous 59 laps, Darren scored 58 laps and a fine performance from newly promoted driver Chelle Snowden won her third place on 57 laps.
