Tuesday 11^th February 2014

The winter league resumed with round 2 this week, Darren Ford dominated the qualifying and achieved 38 laps which was two laps better than anyone else. A resurgent Lee Bishop stormed into second place overall qualifying with some great driving in heat 2 with Richard Parker third and Dave Tomlinson fourth.

Paul Galbraith drove well to be second in division 2 and a fine performance from Jenson Butlin earned him third place.

Division 3 is very competitive at the moment, Joshua Galbaith was top qualifier followed by Roy Matthews and Selina Woods.

Finals

In the finals Josh was the best in division 3 giving him a maximum 41 points, Roy second and Courtney Orme third.

Lee Bishop continued his good form by taking fourth place in the “A” final to be top division 2 driver and score maximum points, Paul Galbraith was second and Robert Hambridge third.

Darren Ford led the “A” final from pole position achieving the fastest lap of the evening at 8.87 seconds and seemed to have the race in the bag until lap 44 where disaster struck and forced his retirement from the race. Richard Parker took full advantage of the opportunity to win. There was a very close battle for second place between Daniel Williams and Dave Tomlinson with Daniel crossing the finishing line just 1/10^th second ahead of Dave – that was close!

After two rounds Richard leads division 1, Dave Tomlinson is second and Louis Parker third.

Paul Galbraith is the leader in division 2, Jenson Butlin is second and Jack Cook third – they all better watch out for Lee Bishop after his performance this week.

Roy Matthews and Joshua Galbraith have equal points at the top of division 3, I expect a close contest between these two drivers as the league progresses, Kevin Flamson is in third place.
