    After a day which threatened to be needing a visit from Noah, it turned out dryish, and despite the few showers we did have most found some dry tarmac to make good on there times. An excelent venue , and a great team running there first national B event, hopefully many more from the Lotus 7 Speedchampionship will visit in future years.
    Class 1 - Robert Jacobs Class 2 - Matthew Willoughby Class 3 - Jeff Smith Class 4 - Michael Sankey Class 5 - Shaun Elwell Class 6 - Robert Margel Ladies - Lynn Gilbert Novice - John Bransfield Overall fastest time of the day, went to Michael Sankey in Class 4, just 0.03 seconds ahead of Shaun Elwell in Class 5

    So only 3 event's to go in the season and it's looking like it's going to go down to the final event.
    Class 1 Whilst Steffan Eldredd is in the lead both Paul Boston and Robert Jacobs are still firmly in the running
    Class 2 Graham Howard is currently in the lead but the class is wide open with 6 competitors being in a position to take the class.
    Class 3 Richard Price is currently leading the class with Jeff Smith and Matthew Jenkins close on his heals.
    Class 4 David Nelson has won the Class
    Class 5 Shaun Elwell has won the Class
    Class 6 Rob Margel needs 1 more win to take the class.
    Novice John Bransfield has won the Class.
    Ladies Joy Hoyle is leading class with Becky Boston close on her heals.
    Edward Lewis Becky Boston is out in front with only two events remaining, it's going to need some PB's to be seriously smashed to stand any chance of catching.
    Overall Champion Having won Class 4 David Nelson is in the lead however having only the two Anglesey events counting toward the Overall Champion, there's still room for a victor to overtake him, with only 4 points covering the top 5 contenders but they still need to win there class.
