GN Notes: 163 leads away. 268 pulls off before the race start. 55 spins out in turn 2 in the early going. 216 lets 346 and 335 have it into turn 3. 127 joins in the fun next time around. 163 is left facing the wrong way on the exit of turn 4. The cars pass both sides at full racing speed. Caution to move Mark to safety. 120 heads the restart. 235, 463 and 138 all come to grief in turn 4 towards race end. 5 to go sees 212 gaining on 120. Soon after Danny is through and away to the win with another forceful drive. He was certainly not taking any prisoners today. That's it folks. I'll be back from Buxton 👍

Pit News: 84 - Porta power on the front axle. Brake pipe change. 525 - R/h half shaft sheared at the diff end. 216 - Working on the front right corner. 268 - Porta power on the front axle. 515 - Rear left hub assy removed. Adaptor piece inserted in the axle. Ratchet chain and porta power brought into play to try and bring the axle end back into line.

Final Focus: 548 leads away. Dan spins out in turn 4 before he crosses the line. 335 and 25 lock together in turn 4 on lap 1. 502 loses traction on the exit of turn 2 and ends up on the infield. 216 goes around in turn 4. 463 and 364 lock together and ram the fence in turn 4. Caution for a stranded 268 in turn 1. 163 heads the restart. All the reds charge down the back straight in a blur of colour, and clash of steel. The end result is a big pile up for those in front. 127, 548, 525 and 338 are all caught up in the mayhem. The 548 car finishes on its side. 163 heads this second restart. 84 pulls off before the green flag waves. 16 up to 3rd at this stage of the race. 212 is ruthless with the front end making hard contact with anyone in his way, including 515. 5 and 55 dice through turn 1 with Charlie slicing up the inside. 259 sends 21 into a spin in turn 4. Caution for a broadside 2 and 289 on the homestraight. 16 heads this 3rd restart. 515 has a wayward moment exiting turn 4 which lets 212 through. Next time around Frankie locks together with 216 and both ram the fence on the turn 4 exit. The 515 car is left hanging off the fence. Caution flag. 16 heads the 4th restart. Next to do a combined charge on the fence are 93 and 120 in turn 3. 55 suffers a flat left rear when in 2nd place. 501 pulls off with the prop-shaft pulled out of the diff. Mat takes the win.

Pit News: 326 - Diff strip-down in op. 11 - Ratchet chaining the right rear bumper corner prior to welding. 163 - Porta power on the front axle again. 20 - Gearbox out.
