With all three Cadet Honda drivers going into the penultimate 2 Counties Club Championships, something had to give.  David Aulejtner achieved pole position but it was Maksy Solarski, from opposite pole, who took the win, thereby promoting himself from 3rd place into the lead with only one more round to go.
Anthony Cleal and Ben Pearson enjoyed a tremendous tussle throughout the heats,  it was, however,  Cleal on pole for the Final,  courtesy of Pearson oiling-up on the rolling lap of heat 2.  From the lights, Cleal took the lead with Pearson never more than a meter away and so to the flag.   Behind, Robin Stoddart-Stones and David Watts were battling it out for 3rd place, which eventually was claimed by Watts.
In the master and Veteran sub-groups Cleal and Stoddard-Stones re-inforced their first two placings in the Club Championship, though it is Ron Shone who moves up to 3rd , one point ahead of David Goode.
Stoddart-Stones, with a light to flag win, moves further ahead in the Legend group.  It is David Goode who puts a little clear air, albeit 1 point, between him and Ron shone for 2nd overall.
In the Top-Weight subclass,  Ben Pearson is now in an unassailable lead ( provided he starts the final round).  Second is Ron Shone although he has been closed down by Rob Mortimore.  Yet again, there is the tightest of margins ( 1 point) between them going into the last round. 
The Championship moves on to the Clay Pigeon Circuit for the Final Round on November 11th,   which carries a 100 point non-attendance penalty!   In most of the Championship classes,  drivers in the top 4 positions are separated by only 1 or 2 points, so racing will be tightly contested.  Throw the Matthew Percy for Formula Blue into the mix  and it promises to be one ‘ Hell of a finale’.
Drivers are reminded that entries need to be in by 12pm on Sat 3rd November.

In the most turbulent of race weekends (Hurricane Callum) where the weather went from totally wet in practice to a dry Final, Anthony Cleal wins the day.  It was round 5 of the Two Counties Club Championship, held at the Clay Pigeon Raceway Circuit.  Cleal  scored a 4^th place start and a Final win.  Second on the day was  ‘new boy’  David Watts,  who scored 5 points from an opposite pole grid and 3^rd place finish.  Third overall was Ben Peason with a 5^th place start and 2^nd place finish.  These results have transformed the top of the table with Cleal in the lead,  Pearson moving up into 2^nd and Duncan McLeod rising up to 3^rd overall.

In the Master and veteran groups it is Cleal,  once again, in the lead,  but it is Robin Stoddart-Stones who takes up the Challenge having displaced McLeod down to third. 

Stoddart-Stones, with a minimum points score,  extends his lead in the Legend sub-class from David Goode and Ron shone.
In the Top Weight section Pearson takes over the lead from McLeod with Stoddart-Stones moving up to 3^rd.

Colin Wazny had a special day in the cadet Honda  class,  with a pole to flag win.  This allowed him to move up from 3^rd to equal 1^st overall, albeit on drop points difference!  All three competitors in fact share the lead with 4 points apiece.  The next two round will be crucial.
The 2CKC Championship now moves on to the penultimate round at Mansell raceway on October 28^th.

Another fine and dry race weekend presented itself for round 3 of the Two Counties Club Championship at Mansell Raceway on 30th September.
In Formula Blue 2 drivers excelled on the day,  Anthony Cleal, the newly crowned Champion for 2018 / 19 and Ben Peason shared the points on the day.  The overall win went to Pearson by virture of his Final win. Cleal gained pole after Pearson snapped a throttle spindle in Heat 1.   It was Cleal’s turn to suffer a problem in the Final when a fuel cap unwound.  He still raced on however, to hang on to second spot.  David Watts, the ‘new boy’, in the class had a good day qualifying 6th on the grid.  His Final was spent swapping the 3rd position with Serita Shone, though it was Watts who held his nerve to the flag taking 3rd spot, with Serita Shone in 4th.  The last trophy was claimed by Robin Stoddart-Stones enjoying a welcome return to form. 
In the Blue Master and Veteran sections , Cleal has reinforced his position at the front increasing his lead over Duncan McLeod and Robin Stoddart-Stones.
It is Stoddart-Stones, however, who shoots into the lead in the Legend sub-group, Ron Shone and David Goode being displaced in the process. 
Duncan McLeod, by virtue of his drop option, maintains his lead in the Top Weight group.  Ben Peason, following his win at mansell, has closed him down.  Mitchell McLeod remains in 3rd position.
In Cadet Honda a clean sweep of a pole to flag win has promoted David Aulejtner into the lead. Maksymilian Solarski and Colin Wazny chase him in 2nd and 3rd position. 

The Two Counties group now move on to the Clay Pigeon Raceway on October 14th for the next round.     For more information and up-date on points please view the results page on this website or CLICK HERE
