This was meant to be a relaxing weekend with just a trip to KL on Sunday, then the NMSC were offered the chance to race on Saturday night at KL with the F1s and F2s... never can turn down a speedweekend!
With only two yellow grade and one blue grade drivers racing this weekend, it looked like there would be nothing to stop the reds and superstars descending on the white grade drivers but, with very few yellow flags all weekend, it didn't work out that way. Yes, the reds and superstars took most of the podium places but they had to chase hard to catch the leading white tops. #108 Melika Moore took second place in Race Two, Saturday and the first three in Race One, Sunday all carry white roofs.

The next outing for the NMSC is at Skegness Stadium on August 23rd. 30 ministox have booked to race supporting the BriSCA F1 Semi-Final and V8 HotStox Gold Roof meeting.
A fortnight later it's September and time for the NMSC National Championship. Our big race is being run at Barford Raceway on Sunday 7th September. Hopefully, all 27 qualifiers will be lining up on the championship grid and providing an awesome spectacle around the tight, demanding Barford track. A race not to be missed!
Cheers,
