the first 10 rounds  Colin Dunn led from Mike Moss with Damian Longotano 3rd,  but with Joker cards and Dropped scores to come in to play, it&#8217;s too close to call. (report by Robert- Thanks to Nick Forbes for his photos)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2018 Pembrey caught the full force of storm Callum, which hit all day Saturday and it turned the circuit entrance into a considerable lake, with a large lake in the paddock!&nbsp; However this year we were brushed by the tail-end of Lorenzo , over Saturday night, and although there was a large puddle at the circuit entrance and some&nbsp; puddles in the paddock,&nbsp; it was much less than last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Entry and Qualifying<\/strong>\n. &nbsp;There was a pleasing 17 cars on the grid,\nalthough despite some mighty efforts, but Gareth Haycock (and us), we couldn\u2019t\nmake it to the magic 20! Thanks to Gareth for his efforts!&nbsp; &nbsp;The\ntrack was damp and greasy as the cars went out to practice, and Keith Butcher\nhad one of the those \u2018d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu\u2019 moments as his Audi understeered&nbsp; on the exit to Debeni and headed for the\ngrass! Fortunately he managed to stop just in time, with only his front wheels\non the grass, and he was able to reverse out, and go to the pits for a quick\ncheck and then to head out to get some times in! &nbsp;&nbsp;Meanwhile the bellowing Ginetta G50 of Chris\nEverill was setting the pace and he took pole with a time of 1.07.532! Damian\nLongotano was 2<sup>nd<\/sup> fastest with 1.10.513. On row 2 Keith Butcher was\n3<sup>rd<\/sup> on 1.12.116 an indication that something wasn\u2019t right with the\nR8. Mike Moss was 4<sup>th<\/sup> fastest and on the Class BS pole!&nbsp; On the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> row was Glynne Jones\nand his BMW and Mark Williams and his Class BS VW Golf. On row 4 was Gareth\nJohn with is Ginetta G40 looking good in its new livery. (a warp) Next to him\nand making it an all Class BS row was Daryl Radford and his Honda Civic R. On\nrow 5 Colin Dunn (Clio) and Andrew Williams (Fiesta) made it an all class BT\nrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On row 6 was Gareth Haycock who was giving his nice sounding 3.2 V6 Golf its Pembrey debut, with Mark Nicholson having his Pembrey Debut in his Clio. Mark, who is a mate of Mike Moss,&nbsp; is usually found at Castle Combe although he did come with us to Silverstone! Mike was bedding in some new brakes, but got the shepherds crook (aka the Black Flag) for going too slow! &nbsp;In the end he was the last driver to get under 1.20.0 so he wasn\u2019t actually too slow!&nbsp;&nbsp; On row 7 was Roger Dowden (WRDA Chairman) and his usual yellow Davrian, and Alan Smith who is getting his Ka down to some tidy times. On row 8 was Ben Cutler and his Mini, (only .5 of a second behind Alan) Verity Banks was alongside. On row 9&nbsp; Ellis Wiggins was last! He only did a few laps as his tyres were lacking grip! He confirmed that setting them to the right pressure would have helped!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Race 1 \u2013 Round 11 15 mins + 1 lap \u2013 Rolling Start.&nbsp; Damian Longotano, Mike Moss and Chris Everill\nplayed their Jokers cards for this race. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"913\" height=\"608\" src=\"http:\/\/wrda.co.uk\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Chris-Everill-Pembrey-Oct-flames.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5581\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Chris-Everill-Pembrey-Oct-flames.jpg 913w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Chris-Everill-Pembrey-Oct-flames-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Chris-Everill-Pembrey-Oct-flames-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Chris-Everill-Pembrey-Oct-flames-272x182.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 913px) 100vw, 913px\" \/><figcaption><strong>Chris Everil Leads Race 1<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Blake Edwards was driving the pace car, but as he pulled off, and the lights flashed out to start the race, Damian and Chris headed the pack into Hatchets. Chris headed the pack on the first lap, Damian settled into 2<sup>nd<\/sup> place and the lead of Class CS! Keith Butcher settled into 3rd place, with his car somewhat lacking in pace. That\u2019s the way the places stayed to the end,&nbsp; as Damian had other fish to fry, and was not really risking anything, whilst Keith was lacking for pace. Actually as the winner of 6 races already this year, Keith was assured of the \u2019Blake Edwards Trophy\u2019 but he also did have a shout for the \u2018Colin Gundersen Trophy\u2019 based on the fastest laps at Pembrey. However Chris Everill powered to the fastest lap point in Class D with a time of&nbsp; 1.06.489, whereas Keiths best time was 1.10.172 which shows how much his car was suffering, and this dented his &nbsp;Gundersen Trophy\u2019 hopes. Behind the first 3 there was much action. Mark Williams settled into 4<sup>th<\/sup> place and had Mike Moss on his tail. Mike &amp; Mark passed &amp; repassed each other, but more on that later on. Behind then Glynne Jones settled into 5<sup>th<\/sup> place, and as the flame-spitting Ginetta of Chris Everill went on its merry way, Glynnes\u2019 BMW thought it would do some &nbsp;flame-spitting of its own! The problem was that whilst Chris\u2019 flames were coming from his exhaust, Glynne was coming from underneath his car! Eventually &nbsp;after a lap or 2 Glynne became aware of the flames and as it was in the area near the cars fuel tank, he decided it was time for action, and instead of turning left onto the new section he headed direct to the marshals post near the rally-cross track! &nbsp;\u2018I decided I needed to be out of there!\u2019 His door was open before the car stopped rolling, and as he jumped out, the marshals swung into action and put the fire out with a dry powder extinguisher!&nbsp; Although the car disappeared in a cloud of powder, Glynne and the car were safe! Yes that\u2019s what the marshals train for, but it is what you pay your entry fee for, to make sure the infra structure is there if it is ever needed, and the marshals can use whatever they need to keep us safe! At the time of writing Glynne hasn\u2019t found the cause of the fire but the scrutineers thought it might have been an oil leak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"984\" height=\"656\" src=\"http:\/\/wrda.co.uk\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Glynne-Pembrey-Oct-Fire-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Glynne-Pembrey-Oct-Fire-1.jpg 984w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Glynne-Pembrey-Oct-Fire-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Glynne-Pembrey-Oct-Fire-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Glynne-Pembrey-Oct-Fire-1-272x182.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 984px) 100vw, 984px\" \/><figcaption><strong>Glynne &#8211; burning up the track!<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Back in the race, initially behind Glynne was a fast starting\nGareth Haycock, Colin Dunn, Daryl Radford, Andrew Williams, Mark Nicholson,\nand&nbsp; Gareth John. As the race wore on Mark\nNicholson and &nbsp;Gareth John began to rise\nup as Gareth Haycock began to fade. Late on Gareth John overtook Mark Nicolson\nto finish 5<sup>th<\/sup> with Mark 6<sup>th<\/sup>! Daryl Radford (7<sup>th)<\/sup>\nand Colin Dunn (8<sup>th<\/sup>) &nbsp;had\nanother &nbsp;close end to the race with only 0.45\nsplitting them at the flag. Gareth John (9<sup>th<\/sup>) split Colin from\nAndrew Williams (10<sup>th<\/sup>)while Elis Wiggins rose up from last qualifier\nto finish 11<sup>th<\/sup> and Roger Dowden was 12<sup>th<\/sup>. We lost Verity\nBanks early on when her gear-linkage fell apart, but last but no means least were\nAlan Smith and Ben Cutler who had the hammer &amp; tongs battle for &nbsp;most of the race with Ben &amp; Alan swapping\nand re-swapping places! In the end Alan was 13<sup>th<\/sup> but only 0.294\nahead of Ben who was 14<sup>th<\/sup>, and was awarded the \u2018Driver of the Day\u2019\nfor his efforts in only his first race on the Club Circuit! As a tribute to the\namount of pressure Ben put&nbsp; Alan under,\nhe (Alan) had to set a new Class AT lap record to beat Ben! However as the race\nwound down, there was still drama as the close dice of Mike Moss and Mark\nWilliams, go a little too close and lap 13 was unlucky for Mike as he lost his\nleft front mudguard, but more importantly the brackets were bent onto his tyre!\nFearing the worst, but not realising a slow lap could have seen him take the\nfinish, Mike pulled off at the paddock turn! However this meant that Gareth John\ntook the Class BS Season in his debut season, but it all was not lost as Mike\nhad already set the fastest lap, which put him narrowly in front of Keith\nButcher in the Colin Gunderson trophy standings! So Chris Everill won the race,\nwith Damian Longotano 2<sup>nd<\/sup> but the Class CS winner and with double\npoints due to his Joker. &nbsp;Keith Butcher was\n3<sup>rd<\/sup> &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Race 1 &#8211; round 11- in progress<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"912\" height=\"608\" src=\"http:\/\/wrda.co.uk\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Damian-2019-Champion-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5591\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Damian-2019-Champion-1.jpg 912w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Damian-2019-Champion-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Damian-2019-Champion-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wrda.itcscloud.co.uk\/historic_site\/web\/wrdawp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Damian-2019-Champion-1-272x182.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px\" \/><figcaption><strong>Damian Longatano &#8211; 2019 Champion! <\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> In the Blake Edwards Trophy Keith Butcher is the clear leader, but in the Colin Gundersen Fastest lap trophy, only 0.25 separates Keith Butcher from Mike Moss!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The race \u2013 15 minutes + 1 lap \u2013 Rolling Start.&nbsp; <\/strong>Blake took the grid around to start the final race in the 2019 Welsh Championship and Chris Everill took the lead, but this time Keith had the R8 flying and he stalked Chris and pounced and took the lead on lap 4, setting the fastest lap of the race in the process leaving the Class D &amp; Championship lap record at 1.05.414 seconds! However 2 laps later it was all over for Keith, as he trailed into the pits with a damaged rim and a puncture! Chris was left to run out the rest of the race on his own, Damian ran in 2<sup>nd<\/sup> place and the Class CS lead, but was some distance behind Chris, as he had his eyes on the title! In 3<sup>rd<\/sup> place, some distance behind, was 2018 Champion Mike Moss, after passing a fast starting Gareth John and Daryl Radford, he then stalked Mark Williams, before closing and passing Mark in the closing laps, and drawing away to finish 3<sup>rd<\/sup> with Mark W 4<sup>th<\/sup> and the last car on 15 laps. &nbsp;Crucially Mike set the Class Fastest lap, and he was one of several drivers to leapfrog Keith B in the Colin Gundersen Trophy points standings! Behind them Daryl Radford and Gareth John were having a real dice, but Gareth eventually got by and pulled a small gap, and his efforts were noticed by the Marshals who nominated him for the \u2018Driver of the Race\u2019 award.&nbsp; Mark Nicholson recovered from a first lap spin before pulling through to finish 7<sup>th<\/sup>. Behind him Gareth Haycock and his V6 VW Golf and Colin Dunn (Clio) were in a close dice! Having got by Gareth on lap 8 as Gareth began to have brake problems, Colin claimed 8<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp; and the Class BT win and fastest lap. Gareth was 9<sup>th<\/sup> with Ellis Wiggins closing on him, after&nbsp; passing Andy and his Fiesta, but Gareth had 3 seconds in hand over &nbsp;Ellis who finished in 10<sup>th<\/sup> in his white Nova! (Ellis has plans over the close season to make the Nova a different colour!) Andy W fell back to finish 11<sup>th<\/sup>, having got a good start initially. Ben Cutler also had a fast start and was 12<sup>th<\/sup> ahead of Alan Smith, Roger Dowden , Verity Banks and Mark Nicholson. Mark N recovered from his spin and moved up to finish 7<sup>th<\/sup>. &nbsp;Roger too moved on to finish 12<sup>th<\/sup> but it was battle joined again for Ben Cutler and Alan Smith who swapped places several times! Alan was battling hard and threw everything into it on the last lap, and set a new Class AT lap record, to break the record he had set in race 1! At the flag Ben took 13<sup>th<\/sup> place by 0.268 secs from the battling Alan Smith who was 14<sup>th<\/sup>. Verity Banks was 15<sup>th<\/sup> having battled on with gearbox and engine problems to record a finish.
