Andy Smith was unbeatable aboard the ex-Eddie Cheever March 782 in both Historic Formula Two races, although the similar machine of Matt Wrigley ran him close in the first.
Meanwhile, up to six cars challenged for the lead in the opening Historic Formula Ford event, with overtaking aplenty. Callum Grant (Merlyn Mk20A) took the win by just 0.06 secs from Benn Simms' Jomo JMR 7 (Paddock profile, February), with Linton Stutely (Royale RP3) only 0.113 secs further back. Reliability issues hampered Stutely and Simms in race two as Grant claimed a second victory; Spencer Shinner (Merlyn Mk20/50) was runner-up with Wrigley (Merlyn Mk11A/20) a mere 0.009 secs behind him, having started 27th.
