Although the entry closing date for the race meeting does not close until Tuesday 5th September,  the entry list for the Gold Sovereign aspect closes on Sunday 3rd Sept. The NKRA require 4 working days in which to purchase the gold coins and because of the high cost involved they need to know the exact number required.  Any entrants after Sunday will still be able to race in the 2 Counties Club Championship but will not be eligible for the Gold coins, as provided by the NKRA.  PLEASE GET YOUR ENTRIES IN NOW !  THANKS.     Here is the link to the on-line entry for Clay Pigeon 

Once the dust had settled,  Ian Branfield emerged top of the Formula Blue ranking order after the NKRA Grande Finals at Mansell Raceway on the 26th and 27th August. Everything came down to the actual final of the day.  If Duncan McLeod, who had already gained pole position, won,  then the No 1 was his.  From the lights, he shot into the lead,  which he gradually increased until lap 7, when he inexplicably pulled off and went back to the pits.  Ian Branfield took full advantage and raced on to the win followed by Anth Cleal, who eventually finished 4th in the ranking order.  It was Kevin Ford, however, who claimed 2nd overall,  once the  S & B Automotive Academy scores were added to the total, with Mitch McLeod taking 3rd place.  New boys, on the block, were Ryan Edgecumbe who is now ranked 9th,  Taylor Waldron ranked 11th,   Jake Calvert 13th,  Robert Dudley 15th and father, Graham,  in 16th.  Ben Pearson,  after a late start in the season, claimed the 17th spot with Hanna McLeod, despite a hiccup in the Final, taking 18th.

The Formula Blue entourage now moves on to Clay Pigeon for the Gold Rush on 11th September  ( which is also the Cancer Research Charity fund raising day) where the new numbers will be on display.

Ed Leader, by virtue of pole position and win in the Final, overcame the small deficit of non-attendance points accrued earlier in the year,  to win the Cadet Honda Grande Finals.  Second overall was Charlie Vaughan. 
In the Formula Blue class, it was Ian Branfield who,  from opposite Pole, came through to win after the surprise withdrawal (in lap 6) of Duncan McLeod, who was clearly in the lead.
Second overall was Anthony Cleal having started from grid 3,  with Kevin Ford recovering well from a poor performance in the heats, to finish in third place.
