ROUND 25 - Saturday 20th October 2018

So, it was the final round of a hectic Championship schedule. We knew Elen had taken top spot, but a few more places remained up for grabs. We were blessed with a bright, sunny day and, not what I expected, a quick track.  Here’s how the BARC Connaught Speed Championship runners fared:

In Class 1A – Road-Going Series Production Saloon Cars up to 1400cc, Mike Edwards Mini was a bit breathless along the straights and had to take second place on 93.30 seconds. Consolation came when other half, Becci, won the Racing Car Day at Thruxton in the evening’s raffle!

In Class 1B – Road-Going Series Production Saloon Cars Over 1400cc up to 2000cc, The Martorana Family Alfa Romeo MiTo was peddled quicker this time by Leo who recorded a 90.84 seconds, with brother Adriano on 92.73 seconds.

In Class 1C – Road-Going Series Production Saloon Cars Over 2000cc, James Hunt in the mighty BMW E30 managed to remain pointing forwards long enough to win the eight strong class on 83.55 seconds. Paul Jaggard is now getting to grips with the Alfa 147 GTA and took fourth place on 88.43 seconds. Emma H took the Golf to seventh place on 92.79 seconds and David Skittles Impreza took eighth on 93.94 seconds.

Class 2A – Road-Going Specialist Production Cars, Kit, Replica and Spaceframed up to 1700cc (Car Derived Engines) had a three-way Championship tussle. Anthony Shearman in the Caterham 310 R took the top spot on 82.50 seconds with Graham Holdstock in the Caterham Seven second on 85.58 seconds and Zoe Shearman only 4/10ths away on 85.96 seconds for third.

In Class 2B – Road-Going Specialist Production Cars, Kit, Replica and Spaceframed Over 1700cc (Car Derived Engines), Simon Jones took top spot in the Westfield SE1W on 81.35 seconds.

RESULTS – ROUND 25

Class 3B – Modified Series Production Saloon Cars Over 1400cc up to 2000cc and here Taras Andrusin in the Clio 172 was pushed in to second place on 87.70 seconds.

Class 3C – Modified Series Production Saloon Cars Over 2000cc was dominated by Will Hunt – The Cossie Sierra romping home for the win recording 81.22 seconds.

Class 3D – Modified Series Production 2 & 4 Seater Sportscars up to 2000cc was the home of BARC Connaught Speed Championship Winner Elen Worthington and she took the class with a fine 81.62 seconds.

Class 4A – Hillclimb Super Sports Cars and Sports Libre up to 2000cc saw three entries with Clive Wooster‘s Radical coming out on top with 70.70 seconds – a new PB and unlikely to be beaten now! Clive fought for FTD but had to settle for second fastest.

Class 5A – Racing Cars up to 1100cc had its fair share of mechanical gremlins with three cars dropping out after practice or T1. Unfortunately, Steven Potter’s OMS had a recurrence of the oil surge problem and had to retire, but not before taking the class on 75.42 seconds.

In Class 5D – Racing Cars Over 1400cc up to 2000cc Keith Sollis‘s lovely Ralt RT35 took second place on 75.40 seconds.

Which left Steven Riddle in the Renault Clio 172 Cup as the final winner in Class SB – Road-Going Standard Series Production Saloon Cars over 1400cc up to 2000cc on 88.45 seconds.

Many of us have now seen 2019’s provisional calendar and so it only remains for me to wish every competitor a great closed season and every success in preparing for the next one!
