Uren took first blood by winning the opening run-off in his 3.5 litre Gould-NME, ahead of joint championship leaders Will Hall, Wallace Menzies and Willis. 

The leading drivers were separated by mere tenths of a second all day until the final run-off, when reigning champion Willis dug deep to win the second run-off and BTD in his 3.2 litre OMS-RPE. Willis and Menzies now tie at the top of the standings with the next round at Harewood, near Leeds.
