Showers at Harewood Hill - Round 3 of the VSCC Speed Championships

Monday 03 June 2019

Set amongst the glorious Yorkshire Dales, Harewood Hill saw Round 3 of the VSCC Speed Championships take place under early summer showers which did nothing to dampen the spirits of competitors and spectators alike.  Kindly hosted by BARC, as always this was a superb event and we were treated to an excellent day of motorsport.  The title of Fastest Young Driver went to Daniel Hunter in his Austin 7 Ulster with a time of 93.94.  Fastest Vintage went to Charlie Martin in his Morgan RIP Special at 71.90 whilst the honour of Fastest Time of the Day went to Ian Baxter in his Alta 61 IS with a time 68.50.

Provisional results here.

A popular venue, where the track is visible from the paddock, is neatly nestled in the Yorkshire countryside. The unofficial championship standings currently have Eddie Williams on top with Jeremy Flann and David Furnell in joint 2nd and 3rd. So there's much to play for over the weekend.
