NCRA 3/4 Scratch RR - Rockingham Speedway
Tonight saw the first of the NCRA Rockingham Speedway series, a mixture of various weekly crit races catering for all categories throughout the summer. This week there was a E/1/2 scratch, and a separate 3/4 scratch race, both running over 1 hour, plus 3 laps. Three club members, Chris Fowler, Daniel Leverton and Branislav Mosnak contested the 3/4 race, a welcome return for Branislav back to the racing scene following a year out.
The 1km lap is fast and furious, with one short rise up to the finish line. Averaging around 26mph the riders fought hard for the 10 places up for grabs avoiding 2 crashes along the way. Daniel got into the points taking 10th place in the bunch sprint, while Chris and Brian avoided the crash to finish in the bunch. Well done to all.
