30th August 1986, Ringwood, Bill Boarer
Memorial Trophy & Casa Trophy, Report by Dave Cox from Motoring
News
BASIL CRASKE was in good form at Ringwood
on August 30, the World Champion collecting a hat trick of
wins including the Casa Contracts 25 lap final.
The Bill Boarer Memorial Trophy awaited the
winner of race one, with Paul Rodgers setting the pace chased
by Mick Bonner and Harry Sayell. Sayell slipped by Bonner
and Rodgers to lead on lap six with Craske storming through
to take over two laps later. Craske pulling away to a convincing
win from Sayell, Bonner, Graham Sinclair, Rodgers and Dermott
McGivern.
Rodgers set the pace again in race two with
Nigel Brake and Todd Richards in tow as Bonner, Craske and
Sayell rapidly made up places. Craske was soon through into
the lead and pulling away as Rodgers, Bonner and Sayell diced
for second with Sayell passing both to chase Craske home.
Bonner was third ahead of G. Sinclair, McGivern and Rodgers.
Richards was the early leader in the Casa
Contracts Trophy final until Bonner and Sayell went by with
Craske behind. Bonner held on until lap nine when Craske powered
by and away while interest turned to Paul Sinclair's climb
through the field to an eventual second place, his car running
well for the first time all evening. Craske completed his
hat trick in fine style ahead of P. Sinclair and Bonner while
Sayell and G. Sinclair enjoyed a quick pas de deux promoting
Anthony Brewer and Brake to fourth and fifth with G. Sinclair
sixth.
