  4. GN Notes: 132 leads away. All eyes on a superb battle between 1 & 515 again. Both trading hits with respect to each other and swapping position over many laps. Tom just managed to ease clear in the closing stages. Up front 132, 381 & 8 were the top 3 for most of the race. Entering turn 3 coming to the chequered 132 drifted wide allowing 381 & 8 through. That's it folks 👍
  5. Final Focus: 524 leads away. 132 takes over up front on lap 2. 515 is moving forward at a rapid pace. 381 retires with a flat front left. 175 fires 524 hard into the turn 1 fence bringing out the caution. 132 heads the restart. 345 delays 515 momentarily which allows the 1 car past. Frankie is back ahead again straight after. 8 takes a short-lived lead before losing spots as 555 takes up the top spot. A good race long battle between 1 & 515 is the highlight of the race. Frankie gets the upper hand with a good hit into turn 3 which allows him to pull clear of Tom.
  6. Heat Three Happenings: 524 leads away. 349 is sent around by 345 on the back straight. 132 leads at lap 3 with 8 up to 3rd. 368 slows on the back straight. 554 loses the front right wheel in turn 2 bringing out the caution. 368 retires before the restart. 132 heads this restart. 555 makes a successful challenge on 8 for the position which also sees 526 come through. Catherine takes the place back from JJ soon after. 1 to go and Finn sends James wide into turn 1. He tries for a return hit into turn 3 but is unable to make contact. 526 is through for the win.
  7. Heat Two Happenings: 524 leads away. 1 hits 515 and 175 aside in turn 2 381 gets out of shape in turn 3 delaying 515. 132 leads at halfway. After getting by 1 515 is held up by a slow moving 532 which allows Tom back past. 242 closes in on 132. 5 to go 242 leads. 8 closes in on the leader at 2 to go. FWJ puts a hit in on 1 into turn 1 at one to go but can't get past. Exiting turn 4 to the flag Joe drifts wide allowing Catherine to power through for the victory.
  8. Heat One Happenings On a deluged track 524 leads away. 242 puts a hit on 22 entering turn 1 but ends up tangling with Lewis and both spin on the exit of turn 2. 1 spins exiting turn 2. 555 another to go around at this spot which slows 515. 524 also gets spun here with a combined push from 453 & 349
  9. Welcome to Yarmouth folks. It's great to be joining Nic today. This venue was the first place i ever saw stock cars back in 1973. I was on holiday from one seaside resort of Blackpool to this one with my parents. An advert caught our attention and we called in to see Superstox and Saloons. I was hooked immediately. Not realising BriSCA existed i spent the next three years travelling by public transport to all the Spedeworth tracks including Billinghurst which was not easy to get to. At Wimbledon on New Years Day 1976 i experienced F1s for the first time. This was the SCOTA F1s. I was blown away by the noise and size of the cars. A few weeks later on my way to school i saw a John Hillam sticker on a Ford Cortina Mk 2 near my house. I thought that 229 car looks like those i had seen on NYD. Underneath was a sticker advertising Nelson's season opener on March 20th. I caught the bus to Nelson on that day to witness the greatest spectacle i had ever seen. A 60 car three heat bonanza! I had spent 3 years watching down south when i could have seen so much more closer to home! The rest is history with many enjoyable years spent with all the wonderful people that make up the oval racing family 👍
