  • EVESHAM EXCELLENCE

    One of Grassing’s greats prove their mettle with a super event. It may have been rather dusty; there may have been too many red flags throughout the weekend, and it may have rained torrentially on day two, but round three of the Series should be remembered as a great event.The Evesham Autograss Club, like the…


  • KEEPING ON COURSE

    An excellent MAP Open signifies a potentially brilliant BAS round. Part of the unrest and ill feeling between rounds one and two last year was because of the cancellation of the MAP Open and the long wait endured by drivers eager for competition, but denied it by the persistent bad weather.Fast forward a year and…


  • SECOND CHANCES

    Last year’s event was spoiled; this year we’ll be treated to a cracker. As one of the sport’s most experienced clubs, blessed with one of the fastest – if not the fastest – tracks in the country situated in a particularly beautiful part of Wales, it remains an incredible shame that we look back on their fourth…


  • BEATING THE BEST

    Huge, high quality entry is topped by Thomas. It was clear from his many good performances last year that it probably wouldn’t be long before Dan Thomas took an overall win; but it’s even more impressive that he looked so in control against such a sizeable, high quality field. At 78 cars, it was the…


  • PIPE DREAM

    Joe Pipe challenges the champ. The upside to being top qualifier is that you get first pick of the grid positions for the final, and Tim Harber made this work to his advantage despite choosing grid one, which is sometimes a little risky.Being the innermost lane, it’s easy to overshoot the bend and run wide…


  • DOUBLE DUELLING

    Head to heads are the feature of both finals. There were eight different drivers who took heat wins here, and ten in junior specials, which emphasises the hugely competitive nature of them both, and as always driving standards were excellent.With quite a few names either starting out in the classes; joining the BAS for the…


  • THE WAY TO OPEN

    An exciting first lap opens the first final of the event, and the season. That the class one final started at a few minutes past two underlined the timeliness of the event, and was a race which contained the kind of close action that typified both the heats and what was to come in the…


  • REPEAT AFTER ME

    Cooper does the double and takes ‘ten too. The second of Phil Cooper’s final victories was altogether more straightforward; an untroubled bungee-to-flag victory that belies the ultra-competitive nature of the class.The class seemingly continues to get a little tougher each year: the entry list may not be huge at each event – certainly nowhere near…


  • ON THE WAY TO ELEVEN?

    Cooper took his tenth title in ten years in 2014; will this be his 11th? This was one of the weekend’s more exciting finals in which a couple of drivers played a starring role. Ian Spencer put in a sensational drive in the first run of the final with a manoeuvre for the lead round the…


  • BATTLES RECOMMENCE

    The reigning champions make their mark. That there were several of the usual names out of the final here is hopefully an indication of what’s to come this season; the always competitive and exciting class could well be set to become even more interesting, with a few shake-ups in the order.Unsurprisingly Jabez Smith was top…
