Qualifying was dominated by Simon Reeves with his Peak powered XX4. Taking all 5 rounds of qualifying In an impressive fashion Simon was the only driver to make 13 laps. Second on the grid was Alec Springer who had been pushed all-day by the chasing pack of James Evans and Richard Ralph. With 6 out of the top 10 using a true 100% Losi XX4 this was again a great start to the winter season.

Just before the start of the final and adding to the tension there was a slight altercation between two of the cars. While on his

practice hot lap Mark Newham had not seen Brian Preddy's car stationary on the grid; there could only be one outcome. Brian had a broken shock tower and it looked like he didn't have a car for the final. A big thank you to Dan Cockill for lending Brian his XX4 so he could run in the final.

Totally unfazed by all the goings on and rushing around Simon lead from start to finish, concluding the day with yet another thirteen laps; nearly a whole lap in front of second place.

The next 3 fought it out right from the start and for the entire five minutes, even on the last lap, positions were still changing. Alec just held on for second just in front of Richard Ralph and James Evans.
