Andy Smith continued his winning run from 2012, with victory in all three races
at Knockhill on 7th April, at the wheel of his Morgan +8.
He did not have an easy time, pressured by the efforts of several front-running drivers which provided great entertainment for the unusually large crowd. Raymond Boyd, Tommy Gilmartin, Robert Marshall and Shonny Paterson were all within a few seconds of Smith at the end of each race.
Close competition throughout the field added to a very entertaining day’s racing,
which included several new cars and drivers.
As mentioned in an earlier post, it was a pleasure to see Caroline McMurdo return in her Austin A30, after her qualifying accident during the first event of last season.
Looking forward to a bigger field and similarly exciting racing at the next event,
on 5th May.
