Having been to very few meetings this year, I would say of those I have seen it would have to be Lundy in the Consi semi at Lynn, and Carl Waterfield in the saloons world final.

I'd second that Pedro, both (but especially Carls) were excellent drives. cheers

391 at April Buxton, 2nd meeting for new tarcar and took the Final with a great drive.[/quote]

Are you sure it was the 2nd meeting, I thought it was the debut ?

Got to agree probably the best drives this season would be Stuart Smith in the GN at Kings Lynn as that reminded me of his dad from days gone by a long time ago.

Also Lee Fairhurst's drive from about 13th on the grid in the Euro to take the lead by lap 8 in the wet conditions and then maintain it after the yellows.

Best race though would be a tie between the F2 GN at Birmingham with 38, 152, 968 and 886 and the F1 GN between 391, 515, 321 that 212 came through to win from 5th place on the last bend.

Best drive IVE seen this year is Andy Smith's British Drivers Championship drive, the ground he made up after being taken out was unbelievable.

Gordon Moodies drive to take the f2 english open. Started dry. The the rain came on 1st restart, 494 fenced moodie damaging moodies front right wheel early on and he drove the rest of the race with the wheel wobbling madly and polley not far behind him.

Or 968s drive in the world. the hit 854 perfect so that he couldnt get back at him

I'd say that 360 Carl Waterfields drive to win the Saloon world would take some beating. A close 2nd would be Speaky's drive to take 2nd in the semi final.

Everybody knew it was gonna happen and but for over zealous marshalls he could of carried on.

I've been thinking about posting that one all day but wasn't sure if it would cause a forum meltdown. Must be the best 150yds of stockcar racing I have witnessed in 40 years of spectating. Wink

Lundy's last chance consolation drive and the Moodie's european race Shocked

For me it has to be that hit in the F2 World Final and Mickey Brennan going on to win and the John Lund wining the Consolation Semi Final to get into the F1 World and him having the whole stadium giving him the cheer he deserved.

What about Frankie vs Andy at the Skeggy Semi, how many times did they swap places for 1st & 2nd ?
