Edward Leader & Ian Branfield winners of the 2017 NKRA Grande Finals at Mansell Raceway.

Posted on by Julie

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.
