So all in all a good weekend for Scotty with 3 wins and 2 records...

Young Goodyear must have been chuffed, that's his best placing so far isn't it?

[AndyMil]

I thought 'common tater'(Yorkshire joke) said he won a round a couple of years ago, but I could be wrong.
He would have been higher in first run-off but for a slide exiting Farmhouse.

Very good weekend for Scott... well done xxx

Jos has won a round in the past, I'm sure (I remember stories of Barry's partying), but still a superb result.

Nice to see Scott racking up the points early. Shame for Martin and Paul, though.

I think Jos won a round at Gurston where the qualifying was rain affected - anyroad a win is a win.

On Saturday at Barbon he looked very wild but by contrast on Sunday he had calmed down and was certainly very smooth through Orchard and Quarry in the run-offs.

Scott is really determined to make hay while the sun shines and was certainly shining at Harewood. The knackered fuel pump cost both Martin & Paul dearly.

I was impressed with the pace of some of the 1600 & 2000 runners. James Blackmore, who is a Harewood specialist, did well to qualify for both run-offs. Paul Haimes was top dog in the 2 litre class and was chuffed to bits with seventh in the second run-off. Robert Kenrick had a really odd first class run where he spun at Country then two corners later drove straight on into the gravel on the outside of Orchard. He made up for it after the break with a clean class run & a couple of points in the run-off.

Oh and Andy, the "common-tater" at Harewood & Barbon was the hillclimb guru Jerry Sturman who has forgotten more about hillclimbing than I'll ever know!

I'll be at Harewood in June for the Classic but will miss the July Harewood as I will be in Northern Ireland covering the Kirkistown double-header Sprint Championship week-end.

I will pop over to the outside of Quarry next time I am there - I usually lurk on the inside!
