Moderator's Report
A high attrition rate did not detract from the excitement of the close battles for the lead which changed hands several times.
After a Lap one incident accounted for some unlucky drivers, the field was slowly whittled down until just 5 finishers crossed the line, 2 of whom were making their debut in Amateurs.

John Roberts and Jethro collide going into Big Bend as Jethro appears to attempt a pass.
Going into big bend on the racing line and braking at my normal point, there is no overlap at the turn in point and therefore I follow the racing line though the turn , JW would have gone off if he had not hit me.
I don't think this is as clear cut as it initially seems. Jethro appears to lift through the Speed Trap to follow John but does not fall in behind him. John takes his normal early turn in to Big Bend and is entitled to the racing line as Jethro only attains a little overlap under braking. Jethro should have decided whether to go for the pass or not earlier on and committed to it. As it is he seems to neither commit to nor give up the pass and ends up in no mans land.
I think he would have made the corner had he not hit John.
