UPDATED 9th JULY 2007
Another good turnout for the
Saloons (18), definately deserve to have their Championship status reinstated
for the 2008 season! Many thanks to Colin Mckay for providing a couple of
pictures and most of the report, slightly edited:
QUALIFYING
In class A, the surprise was
Stephen Bantleman who was quickest in qualifying, obviously learning fast.
He's only 16 and yet to pass a driving test! Tim Morrant clinched Pole only
.087 ahead of Simon Lewis both class B. Chris Boon was the fastest class E
just over half a second behind.
THE RACE
Having qualified 4th Mike Cann
gradually slipped down the field and then going X-country at high speed which
resulted in the steering idler getting bent and thus not competing on Sunday.
Colin McKay started in 15th
and made a mediocre start, then picking up a few places in the early laps.
Colin had Trevor Baines' X-type glued to the bumper for most of the race and
as he defended the rest of the pack pulled away. Colin finished 12th and kept
Trevor Baines behind him.
Tim Morrant led from the start
until he lost the lead to Dave Bye who had made up 3 places on the first lap.
Unlike most other races all 17
starters finished the race! Stephen Bantleman spun twice in quick succession
having led the class A for the first half of the race and ended up last in
class!
Ken Angell had some trick new
Gaz shocks which let him down, and Andrew Jeffery (normally in the
Lister saloonbut not racing this weekend) heroically drove
back to Sheffield to get some replacements. What a nice guy!
RESULTS BELOW,
This page will be updated a few days after the race. I would be most grateful
of any pictures and info on any of the Jaguar races as I was unable to attend
Cadwell!
The two pictures above were supplied
by Colin McKay, Thanks!

RACE 2
Stephen Bantleman had a bad first lap losing
a couple of places, and running last for a few laps!
With Mike Cann out of action
Colin McKay was the sole surviving Mk2 driver, Colin started 12th and made
an excellent start passing all the class A cars!
Unfortunately for Colin, by the end of the 2nd lap Philip Woods and Ken Angell
had both got back past. Robert Drewery
then outbraked Colin as they dived down the steep hill at Mansfield.
After a couple of attempts to
get back past Robert at the top of the Mountain he turned his attention defending
against Trevor Baines yet again. however following a mistake in the Esses
Trevor made his move and shot through. Philip Woods was now slowing with engine
trouble but the chequered flag intervened before Colin could capitalise on
the situation. Meanwhile nearer the front, Simon Lewis & Rick Walker had both
dropped out in seperate incidents, with some damage to both cars.
The first four, Dave Bye, Tim
Morrant, Richard Dorlin, & Chris Boon kept their positions from lap 1
to the flag!
Thanks again to Colin McKay for
most of the above info on the race.
