PRACTICE / QUALIFYING
Zoe North had a brilliant session
with Pole position just ahead of Pete Bell. Infact the top 8 drivers were
all within 1 second of pole!
Chris Palmer with a little
help from several others worked hard to get his car fit to race following
a dramatic roll at Clearways during the PBJ practice. (See
PBJ).

at Clearways
ChChris talking to a marshal, looking remarkably
calm as his car is rolled back onto its wheels. Most were surprised to see
Chris racing the car later in the day minus its windscreen and most of the
other glass! This incident occurred during practice for the Powered
by Jaguar race
Unfortunately Zoe North lost
out to Pete Bell on the first lap and then lost another 4 places on lap
2! Pete however managed to hold on to 1st despite a lot of pressure from
Simon Garrad. David Bye made up two places to 3rd but had a slight coming
together with Simon Lewis on lap 5 and beached it!
On the 7th lap new driver Phillip
Woods ended up in the gravel trap at Paddock Hill bend. The race was subsequently
red flagged on lap 8. Sadly for Andrew Jeffery the two places he had gained
on the final lap were not counted, and the results reverted to lap 7!
Chris Palmer finished a very
respectable 7th despite a lack of windscreen etc. Certainly my driver of
the day!
The top 6 finished within 3
seconds of each other!
Many thanks to Anderw Jeffery's
son Mathew for most of the above details.
