The penultimate meeting of the season was held last Sunday at Mendips Raceway at the annual ‘Pink day’ being held for charity with huge numbers of people and cars appearing in bright pink which made for an amusing sight when we arrived at Mendips in the incredible summer heat.

With this being a very large banger meeting (the annual Crashmania) unfortunately there wasn’t any time for practice so it was straight out for the first race. A better turnout this meeting of eight cars and Ross would be starting sixth on the grid but wouldn’t stay there long as a good start and the benefit of some new tyres on the #26 car allowed Ross to go straight round #34 and #775 in the first half lap before quickly reeling in and passing #35 on lap 2 and then sliding down the inside of #55 at the start of lap 3 to take the lead! What a start!
