TORC Kyneton Sprint Wrap Up

Round 10 was the final event of the year and it was a big one with 24 entries including 3 buggies from the NSW Superlites.

Racing was run with a random draw and this placed the drivers into two groups, Group #1 and #2 with buggies from both Limited (<1000cc) and Unlimited (>1000cc) classes mixed together. Each group then ran 4 heats each and then the points were totalled to decide the final races with a higher point group and a lower point group with grid positions from fastest to slowest. After the final races we had the Spittoon which was made up of two flying laps. With the points all collated the results were as follow:

Limited (<1000cc)
1^st             6 Dave Taylor 60 Points
2^nd           11 Andrew Doyle 27 Points
3^rd           “K” Kruiz Jenkins 12 Points

Dave Taylor was flying and nobody could get near him in the limited class. Kruiz Jenkins put on a good show for the few races that he raced and Andrew Doyle was consistent all day as usual.

Unlimited (>1000cc)
1^st            155 Eric Schifelner 75 Points
2^nd          20 Peter Richards 54 Points
3^rd           10 Jamie Baensch 52 Points

Eric Schifelner dominated in Group #1 and Craig Todd dominated in Group #2. In the final Eric finished 1st, Peter Richards 2^nd and Jamie Baensch 3^rd. Craig Todd was out early with mechanical issues and Andrew Taylor looked like he would get in front of Eric but unfortunately on the final lap broke a rear shock absorber.

Spittoon Results
1^st            33 Craig Todd 155.3
2^nd           10 Jamie Baensch 158.2
