Crasharama 4 - Action from Consi, Final, Allcomers & DD
Just on 60 drivers turned out for this popular annual for unlimited bangers. Plenty of Jags, couple of Yanks, a couple of Australian variants and a BMW offered a variation on Mk2s and Volvos.
Three heats and a consolation sorted out the final entry with an all-comers precceding the DD.
The heats were won by Bryan Webb (283), Danny Hunt (382) and Paul Bryant (123). Brett Ellacott (162) took the consolation. The final was won by Danny Hunt (382) from Brett Ellacott (162) and Phil Powell (199). The all-comers proved to be another cracker with the win going to Gus Carter (724) from Bryan Webb (283) and Phil Powell (199). Brett Fry (321) won an entertaining DD.
