Sunday 30^th July - Roger Gale Report

Local drivers Anthony Allitt from Neath, Mark Nicholson from Port Talbot  and Mike Woods from Llanelli are lined up in a good sized entry at Pembrey for the latest rounds of the Welsh Sports & Saloon car Championship. At the Pembrey last time 18 year old Cardiff driver Nick Jones driving a Proton became the youngest driver ever to compete in the Welsh Championship. Pole position winner Dave Krayem and Peter Williams from Brecon, both driving Radical sportscars, staged a race long duel for the lead. There was a lot of side-by-side racing with places swapped and traded at will in an intense battles for the lead! Krayem eventually ran out the winner but with Championship leader Andrew Williams pulling off on the last lap with fuel pump failure, the chasing pack of Peter Williams, Allitt and Nicholson have all closed the points gap, with Williams lead cut to 15 points and any further slips from the defending champion could set up another thrilling champion finale. The next rounds of the championship are at Pembrey on Sunday August 20^th with the final rounds also at Pembrey on 15th October.
