Originally planned for Lakeside, a virtual dust storm forced the promoters to move the event up state to the temporary Townsville Street Circuit. After a long drive up there the drivers were ready to race.

Qualify:

Continuing from his quick practice times Chris Naumovski the “One Lap Wonder” absolutely blitzed the field with the smooth driving style around this hectic course. The best of the rest was Allan Marks, Pat O’Reilly then Scott Durham. Jamie Scanlan posted the fastest top speed with 226.1km/h.

Race #4:

Allan benefited from the reverse grid up-front.  Colin Sanders all the way from Canada proved he could run with the top guys, hanging out in 2^nd. Scott and Shane battled close behind. Enda spun, followed by Pat (the current point’s leader). Shane aborted a pass at the last second which gave Iain a chance to slip through. Iain however bombed a certain 3^rd when he spun dropping to 7^th on the 2^nd last lap. Scott in a comfortable position as he brings home 2^nd after his early battles with Iain. Allan Marks Lead from start to finish with his clinical win. Shane home in 3^rd.

Race #5:

With only 5 points separating the top 4 drivers it was likely that whoever would win this race would take the round honors. The green lights shone and Allan got pipped off the start by Scott into turn one and Shane tries to go round the outside, but Iain literally flew through the first corner. Witnesses on the scene mentioned Chris looking rather guilty through his helmet. Shane got clipped and lost the lead. Colin and Pat were in prime position to watch Allan and Scott duke it out hoping they would come together. Colin dropped off and it turned down to a battle of three. An optimistic move by Allan set-up a 3-wide display, giving Pat a temporary half car lead. Scott led a lap and then Allan made a move stick on the outside. At the end of lap 14, Allan placed his car on the inside of Pat, caught the inside kerb and hung on two wheels for what seemed like an eternity dropping back to 5^th. Scott slipped through to second leaving Pat to defend the lead. Allan pressured Colin into a spin for 4^th (no touching). Scott gave Pat one more love tap, but Pat took the win, race and round! Shane took the final podium spot.
