SBD Motorsport MSA British Sprint Championship

Rounds 6 & 7: Pembrey, 30-31 May

John Graham scored his maiden victory at Pembrey on Sunday, following a fourth place finish on Saturday.

Graham was off the pace on day one but struck back with a commanding performance on day two. Colin and Heather Calder scored an impressive one-two on Saturday, with Colin breaking the outright record, although a seized bearing in the gearbox sidelined the Scots on Sunday.

In the battle for dominance of the two-litre category, Craig Sampson stole a march on his co-driver Mark Smith. Sampson was third on Saturday and stepped up to second the day after.
