Superb Final Win For McReynolds |
  On a night which saw eleven different winners from twelve races, Ian McReynolds took his first World Series NI final win in the the National Hot Rods. With an encouraging thirteen cars in action, including Scotsman Wully Hardie, McReynolds set out his stall with a battling second in the first heat behind winner Stewart Doak. Glenn Bell then took the flag in a rain-affected heat two, before McReynolds held off the advances of Doak to take the Best Body Repairs final. |

The 2.0 Hot Rods saw all three races fall to the yellow grade, with Nigel McCaulay taking the chequers in the first heat from Gareth Hagan and Gary O'Neill, before O'Neill led the field home in both the second encounter and the final to take the trophy and earn an instant upgrading to blue for next week. European and British Champion Andy Best got the best star grade spot of the night with second in heat two, with current form man Gary Wilson runner up in the final.
The Junior Productions contested their final fixture before the Irish Championship next Saturday night, and young Jack Gilpin threw his hat into the ring as a contender for their big race with a dominant final victory from the red grade. Derek McMillan, who had earlier won heat one, followed him home, whilst the other heat fell to Jordan Rochford.
Despite his upgrading to blue top after his double at Nutts Corner Raceway last weekend, Thomas Agnew took his second silverware in a week as he stormed home to the ProStocks win. He had earlier carded two second spots in the heats behind Irish Open Champion Ryan Abernethy and Billy Finnegan Jnr, before making the break when it mattered to take the trophy in the final. |
