Round 6: Woodpecker Rally, 1 September

Roger Chilman led from start to finish on the Woodpecker Stages but Matt Edwards did enough to secure the championship title.

Behind Chilman and runner-up Hugh Hunter was an intense battle for the final podium place between Shaun Gardener and Edwards. While Gardener took the place Edwards did enough to build an unassailable lead atop the points table with one round still to go.

Bob Ceen finished just six seconds behind Edwards, with championship crews filling 11 of the top 12 places.
