MX-5 Cup Round 3 - Wakefield Park

23 May 2014 / Words: Craig Durrant, Video: Scott Walker

Round 3 of the MX-5 Cup, held at Wakefield Park as part of their NSW State Titles. 12 MX-5s took part in the Cup races. 

Round 3 saw perfect racing weather. 2 degrees early on Saturday morning (brisk!), warming up to the high teens, no wind and sunny. Not a drop of rain (thankfully for those of us without roofs). There seemed to be a lot of track cleanups, lots of oil spilt on the track by other categories made for challenging conditions at times.
 
All 5 races over the 2 days saw good dices across the field, big smiles in the pits after each race.
 
Winners of the 5 classes, from A through E were: Matilda Mravicic, David Stone, Steve Green, Bill Kinnane, and Jim Glissan! 
 
In the Cup Championship points tally, the top 3 places are occupied by: David Stone, Steve Green and Daniel Deckers. Full results from the round attached.
 
We have a few months until the next Cup round, time to work on the car, strategise and get sorted. Look forward to seeing you at the next round!
