Unofficial results:
Championship Round 1 Round 2 1. Scott Moran 46.54 1. Roger Moran 46.26 2. Roger Moran 46.70 2. Martin Groves 46.34 3. Simon Durling 47.03 3. Scott Moran 46.89 4. Rob Turnbull 49.30 4. Simon Durling 47.48 5. Willem Toet 49.36 5. Paul Ranson 47.73 6. Tom New 49.50 6. Chris Merrick 48.85 7. Basil Pitt 49.98 7. Willem Toet 48.86 8. Jim Robinson 50.06 8. Tom New 49.60 9. Mark Coley 50.70 9. Rob Turnbull 50.12 10. Matt Harrison 51.29 10. Mike Dean 50.38 11. Steve Owen 51.58 11. Basil Pitt 50.53 12. Chris Merrick 65.23 12. Mark Coley 50.99 There were two big accidents in Sunday practice, from both of which the drivers thankfully emerged unhurt. Moose demolished the tire barrier at the finish line, and Chris Merrick was airborne and crashed heavily approaching Hall Corner. Moose then borrowed Simon durling's car for Sunday, making his one point in Round 2 particularly commendable, and Chris Merrick put in herculean efforts (with help from other teams, in the best tradition of hillclimbing) to repair his car for Sunday. A pity driver error ruined his time in Round 1. Martin Groves/Paul Ranson had car trouble all Sunday morning and just managed to get the car to the line for Round 2, when it ran in its usual stunning style. A very long day on Sunday (three runs each), better on Monday, marred only by delays caused by timing problems during Round 2 runoff. Weather typically April, sunny/windy/showers at various times, but overall a typically enjoyable Loton weekend. Here's to Prescott in three weeks!

 Wasn't Willems car quick though?Annoying that it is for me to say  it's going to be a serious contender as far as i'm concerned.

Sounds like an eventful week-end for Chris Merrick, then. He's usually a pretty reliable competitor - quick but safe. Similarly Moose may often look like he's going to leave the circuit, but rarely actually does so. I'm pleased that both came away without any personal damage. Perhaps a sign that everyone's trying very hard right from the start this year?

We did indeed have a busy day on Sunday but it all ended fairly happily(only wallets were the eventual losers)..
Monday it was good to see both drivers who had offs the previous day competing... Must say once Willem gets to grips with that new toy of his I can see it being seriously competitive.. Thanks to all who assisted us with the incidents we attended.. A quote from the paramedic on Sunday.. "Anybody watching would be forgiven for thinking you guys did it for a living" Praise indeed from a man who has worked with those who do actually do it for a living... Well done everyone.....
