flying flynn should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Andrew Jordan (Lichfield) took his second event win of the year at Pembrey on Sunday (July 1) and moved into the lead of the Kumho Tyres MSA British Rallycross Championship.
Jordan qualified his Ford Focus on pole position for the Supercar A final but was eased down to third place at the start of the race as second a third qualifiers Pat Doran (Milstead) and Steve Hill (Aylesbury) beat him to the first corner. Jordan passed Hill at the end of the first lap to take second place and the began the chase of Doran who had opened a useful lead in the first lap.
Doran held off Jordan’s challenge until the last lap when his Fiesta ST suffered a turbo problem and lost boost pressure. Robbed of power, Doran was powerless to defend the lead and Jordan swept past to take the win from Hill and Ollie O’Donovan (London). Doran finished fourth but was unable to start in the Superfinal. Also out of the event at this stage was Dermot Carnegie (Dublin), an ECU fault stopping his Fiesta before the A final. Championship leader “Mad Mark” exited the event during the first qualifying heat when the steering rack in Citroën Xsara WRC broke.
Jordan started the Superfinal from pole and led from start to finish, posting his second win with an accomplished drive. O’Donovan led the chase until the last lap when Rees made a bold move in the first corner and charged through to take second place at the end of his first event in the Supercar category. Hill also passed O’Donovan in the last lap to take third place, Dave Bellerby (Northallerton) again best of the two-wheel drive SuperModified cars in fifth place.

SuperModified
After missing the third round of the championship, Bellerby was intent on making up the lost ground in round four and, starting from pole, led the SuperModified A final from start to finish and took his third win of the year.
Ben Power (Welshpool) ran third in the first lap but found his way past James Bird (Midhurst) in the second lap and then pulled away to take a clear second place and move into the lead of the championship class. Bird raced hard for third place and just held on to the position after a close battle with the similar Renault Cliosport V6 of Mike Sellar (Milstead). Allan Tapscott (Umberleigh) took fifth place with his Vauxhall Corsa while Mike Howlin (Haverfordwest) earned his A final start after winning the B final. After Gordon Rogers (Winkleigh) retired, Howlin was the last finisher. The class points leader entering the event, Bill Harbour (Tunbridge Wells) was a non-starter after destroying his car in a big crash during the third qualifying heat.

Stock Hatch
The Yokohama Stock Hatch category featured a very closely fought A final that was eventually won by Derek Tohill (Dublin). Noel O’Brien (Dublin) led the race for three laps before Tohill managed to find his way into the lead. Julian Godfrey (Heathfield) followed Tohill and grabbed second place, which left O’Brien under pressure from Ash Simpson (York). O’Brien rebuffed Simpson’s bid for third place, but then found himself mobbed by the midfield pack and, in a hectic last lap, Declin Nolan (Dublin) scrabbled through to take third place, O’Brien slipping back to fourth with Polish racer Wozciech Bialowas (Warsaw) placing fifth.

Junior Rallycross
The Bill Gwynne Rallyschool Junior Rallycross Championship category was won by Ben Rennison (Richmond) who led from start to finish after qualifying in pole position. Russ Simpson (York) led the chase of Rennison with Matt Thompson (Darlington) running third until a spin in the third lap allowed George Tracey Jnr. (Mullingar) to take the place. The order was shuffled again in the last lap when Tracey spun and Joe Cunningham (Northallerton) slipped to last place after getting a puncture. This allowed Conor Flynn (Derby) to make his way into third place ahead of Samantha Thom (Cookstown).

BTRDA Clubmans Rallycross Championship
The BTRDA Clubmans Rallycross Championship has a slightly different schedule from the British championship and Pembrey formed round five for its contenders. Gary Pusey (Great Missenden) won the SuperModified category in which he held off the challenge of current champion Asa Fatchett (Lincoln) and Dave Brown (Wickford).
Ash Simpson (York) scored a clear win in the Stock hatch category, Dave Baines (Tarporley) continuing his strong run through the season with another second place finish ahead of Richard Horton (Clitheroe).
The Junior final was won by Conor Flynn (Derby) who took a narrow win over Ben Rennison (Richmond) with Russ Simpson (York) in third place.



Who writes this, do they actually attend the meeting??
Stock hatch, [Tohill managed to find his way into the lead]. Tohill was stunning , great move on Honda curve and down to the hairpin!!!

Juniors ; [Tracey spun and Cunningham got a puncture allowing Conor Flynn thru]
No George Tracey and Thom outbraked each other at the start/finish hairpin and Conor took both having already overtaken Joe.

Super Mods [Ben power found his way past Bird]
Again it was a cool move, by Ben.
Give the drivers some credit.
Would they just put some passion into these reports!!!!

The drivers meeting was for various reasons:

All superfinal drivers were warned about doing donuts, as this is not allowed under the MSA rules and the circuit owner was not happy about his grass being churned up. Boring!!

Super car and Super Modified drivers were called to a meeting to discuss the performance of the new tyres. Drivers are not happy with the cost of the tyres verses the length of time they last for i.e. 1 meeting!! or less. Drivers who used to use Avons were able to get 2/3 meeting out of a tyre, not it is 3 heats if u are lucky. With the new tyres there is only 6mm of tyre to play with in terms of tread and length of time they last against 10mm of the Avons. Drivers have commented that there budgets for tyres have doubled this year and that drivers will start dropping out if sumthing is not done about it. Also the amount of money given in sponsorship will be repaid within 1 year by drivers having to buy so many....... so not such a good deal!

Comments were also made that drivers want another slick tyre to use instead of one got at the moment.

The above post has been edited.
The financial aspect of any deal, and the subsequent cost of any product emanating from that deal, is between the affected drivers, their association and the sponsors.

The thread has also been closed. There are more than enough threads discussing the tyre deal already.
