Sunday afternoon seen the concluding chapter of Paddy Whack 2020 action. This time the Micro Bangers were joined by their larger cousins, the Unlimited Bangers as well as Stock Rods and Brisca F2 Stock Cars.
Local Ace Noel Anderson was the crème of the crop, when he glided his way to victory in the Micro Banger Pots of Gold Final while all around him were crashing. Surviving the blitz to join Anderson on the winner’s rostrum was Matthew McKinstry making it a N.I 1-2. Anderson and Liam shared the heat victories later in the day before Killian Eager outlasted his competitors to take the DD spoils.
The Unlimited’s entered the Arena in force to contest their first event of the day which was the 2020 Euro Masters Showdown. Leonard Dunn and former World Champion Steven Bolton were the first to show, as they broke well clear of the carnage behind. While there were battles taking place throughout the field the leading duo continued to stay clear of trouble. As the race neared it’s conclusion a red flag stoppage was required, after Liam Lake dispatched Davey O’Connor in brutal style on the Airport bend. The cars were lined up once again for the restart which would involve a last lap dash to the flag. It was drama all the way with Dunn and Bolton having a drag race to the flag after a last bend coming together. Bolton piped Dunn to the line for the glory, Dunn was forced to settle for second with Gordy McKee third. Later in the day Steven Bolton had another visit to victory lane with a win in heat one. Heat two went the way of England’s Ricki Finney before the green flag was aired to commence the DD. After a few crunching moments the checkers were displayed again with Gordy McKee declared the DD victor.
In the support formula Antrim’s Mark Kilpatrick was on the pace in the ORCi Stock Rods, claiming victory in the opening heat and meeting final. Local man Joseph Largey denied Kilpatrick the perfect hat trick by chalking up a win in heat two.
Bangor’s Craig McConnell was in very dominating form in the Brisca F2 Stock Cars notching up a double heat victory as well as taking the Gold Cup title for the second year running. Bradley McKinstry showed some impressive pace throughout the afternoon taking second in the Gold Cup ahead of Stephen McCready in third.
Racing continues with a Charity Meeting on Sunday 29th March at 1pm featuring Brisca F2 Stock Cars, 2L Saloon Stock Cars, Stock Rods, Junior Rods & Back to Basic Micro Bangers.
