Round 8 of the Spring League this week which had two rounds left to complete when racing was suspended earlier in the year due to Covid-19.

Some very competitive racing as usual, Karl Norris won the A Final with Simon Pole in second place and Guy Rogers third.

The B Final winner was Mike Simpson, Bob Harley took second place and McKenzie Wallace third.

Simon Honeysett was three laps clear in the C Final with Dan Stones finishing in second just ahead of Paul Carter in third.

Next week will be the final round of the Spring League and with some of the top three places in the leagues not yet decided, especially in F2, it should provide a great finish.
By popular request the track design will be the same as this week.

Many thanks to everyone for helping out at the end of the evening to ensure we were finished on time.

Stephen Deacon was the winner of the B Final being a lap ahead of second place driver Stuart Evans with Benn Norris taking third place.

The A Final promised to be a tremendous race and it did not disappoint. With all six drivers lapping at seven seconds or less the pace was very quick. Karl Norris, Simon Pole and Darren Ford pulled away from the rest of the field and the race finished in this order.
It does not get much better to watch than this!!!!
