Sticky and wet conditions put pay to racing at Great Hockham

March 19, 2008

Rain the night before made the first round of the season incredibly sticky, slippery and a bit slushy.
The meeting was abandoned after one block of racing.

The adult was won by Paul Bennett Mark Bunning and Shaun Lock third.

Schoolboys lined up with a full gate, George Foames with a comfortable first, Jack Delaney and third Bruno Van Dyke.

The big wheels another large entry, Aza Pipon steamed ahead on the first lap, Kieran Snowling with a good second and third Shaun Southgate.

Ryan Simpson holeshotted the small wheel race, but was unable to hold the lead and came a comfortable second behind Liam Knight, with good ride from Declan Whittle for third.

Juniors Kane Fisher stormed ahead, with Ryan Vickers battling for second, Ashley Rudd third.

The autos were unable to race as the condition were to difficult but well done to Freddie Bond, Thomas Davey, James Dutton, Callum Mitchell and Louis Thomas for completing the practise.

Thank you to marshals for their patients.
