The Buggy A final saw Elliot Boots jump pole position man Richmond Rogers early on, but once Richmond regained the lead there was no living with him. Richmond took a dominant win, from Elliot 2nd, Mark Dell 3rd and Richard Botany 4th. Bryan Burrows came up from 10th to 5th at the flag, demoting Reece Sawyer to 6th.

The Truggy A final saw the scrap at the front between Graham Alsop and Jon Hazlewood, Jon dropping back three times until a final big off with radio problems put him out of contention, promoting the ever present Tommy Chung and his Kyosho to 2nd and Reece Sawyer with his Losi 8T third, ahead of Simon Freeman 4th and bump up king Russell Bailey 5th.

Prizes were sent from Team XRAY including special limited edtition signed Micro cars for the winners and the trophies were very impressive pieces of hardware which really did the meeting justice. Plus with all the new promotional banners around the track the venue looked awesome as was the on track action.
