Rounds 15 & 16: Harewood, 6 July

Multiple champion Scott Moran dominated proceedings at Harewood to pull a couple more points ahead of his title rivals with a pair of wins.

The closest of those rivals, Trevor Willis, kept Moran honest by charging hard each time, despite not qualifying well. Alex Summers twice took third as he pushed the determined Will Hall back to fourth place each time. Hall had been forced to change his silencer package after nearly falling foul of a noise test by environmental scrutineers at last week’s Prescott Midland rounds.
