themselves very well trialling their Me-
cedes.
As you can see from the results, there
are groups that are very close in time.
in the tower and all were pleased he got
through the day without car problems,
and he thinks he drove his personal
best time. Tim drove well and only 2
seconds off his best time at the track as
well. Jason has currently got the Lotus
under a small repair after the recent Mt
Bryant Hillclimb where he tried to make
the track wider than it was (where have I
heard that before,) and his son Tyler
allowed him to run the MGZR and put it
through its paces (under strict instruc-
tions of course), and I understand it per-
formed very well.
John Davies an event veteran experi-
enced some terrible noises off the start
line in round three and limped to the pits
to find he had broken the front differen-
tial. Carefully he attempted the drive
home but only made to the Adelaide
suburbs, but luck has it that it was near
a workshop he regularly uses, and the
car is currently under repair. Although
not completing the event, John still man-
aged to gain second outright time.
It was great to see Craig Steel at his
first Super Sprint competing (normally a
volunteer flag marshal), and he made
sure he looked the part looking very pro-
fessional in driving suit etc – time to get
some team colours I think, and Steve
Bowra returning to the track after more
than a decade. Both accomplished
