CWIC Xray Racing Series UK Rd3 – Report

Round three of the increasingly successful CWIC Xray Racing Series UK was held at the Christie Miller Sports centre in Melksham, Wiltshire. Just over 100 entries were received across the classes which for the lead up to Christmas is impressive. With that racers had some great choice with other races to attend on the same day with the 12th Nationals and EWS both clashing with the CWIC XRS. As in previous rounds the ever popular ProStock 13.5 class was the most popular by a long way, attracting well over a 100 racers to the class over the series so far. Round three has seen some new faces on the podium due to some notable absences being away. Top qualifier Dan Blake converted that into an overall round three win with wins in both legs of the finals. Closely followed by Chris Gunter and Mark Giaquinto.
