Birlliant race to watch, after a few cautions Ritchie and keegan set down to battle. The last 10 or so lap Josh (891) joined the party and it was all go. Inchs between them for the remainder of the race, with Keegan leading, Ritchie in behind and Josh outside him. Last corner keegan drifted wide (running out of brakes) and Ritchie slipped through for a narrow win. These 3 guys put on the best and cleanest racing I have seen . Well done a pleasure to watch.
Some good hits in contact classes as well.
Stockcars; Donny delt to 18c Nick Sidaway in true KAOS style, removing side rail, out riggers and wheel gate in the process.
Ministocks; 47c had a couple of good hits, the first on 36c and then on 71c(rolled 3 or 4 times)
Streetstocks;Only 2 girls in the field and they were into it, 72c taking 75c to the wall big time. (we all love to watch girls fight)
A good meeting al round!!!!

After the NZ champs in Cromwell which was an awesome drivey surface and awarded the guys that could pass cars on the high groove.
Woodford glens hoopla was the opposite.. super slick pretty much a one lane track with limited passing in the feature.
Greg Keegan Struggled at cromwell and was never in it under pressure alll the time but at the hoopla it was the opposite he just held his lines did enough but not exciting at all, Good to see Richie Taylor get the win but I think Pickens was the driver of the night.
Dean Waddell & Shane MacIntytre were awesome at cromwell but the slick track just didnt allow them to pass cars if you went high you were going backwards.
Paddy North was giving it everything and still couldnt pass cars..
For a 25 lap feature the front cars never had to pass any lap traffic!
The locals defintely stood up at this meeting and dominated. But I though the racing was boring when compared to the NZ champs at cromwell or even some of the racing the Baypark locals put on at home.
Woodford glen run a good promotion but Drivey tracks defintely make better racing so for that reason it was a very average night.
