Schumacher Indoor Masters Rd7 – Report
The final round of the very popular Worksop Series was held recently with once again a great entry of drivers for the four classes of 2WD and 4WD buggies, 2WD Stadium Trucks and Vintage Buggy. As always it was round by round qualifying as the racing format, with the best two results from four rounds of qualifying counting towards the final position. The track was very much off-road, there were lots of jumps and it was a great layout. Qualifying in 2WD saw a dominating performance by Neil Cragg, taking TQ in three out of four rounds to take pole position from Matt Thompson and Tommy Hall.
In 4WD it was Tommy Hall taking TQ this time, ahead of Neil Cragg and Edward Callan, who lined up second and third respectively. The 2WD stadium truck class saw Joe Cockill take pole ahead of Kevin Hodkinson and Alex Callan. The Vintage classes had Rob Fox leading the way in 4WD and Thomas Gill in 2WD.
