Sunday 1st July - Arena Essex - Cliff Davis Memorial
by Anne Sayell from Midget News
At a very memorable meeting at Arena on 1lst July, the Shreeve
brothers stopped the VW charge taking the chequered flag in
two out of the three events. It was memorable because by the
end of the day most drivers and pit crews resembled coal miners
fresh off their shifts! The ballast used to make up the pit
area seemingly from railway sidings flew up in the wind and
into everywhere else too! Besides that a good turn out led
to more exciting racing, with Peter Shreeve winning the Cliff
Davis Memorial Trophy. Harry Sayell managed to clinch race
two after after a collision took out several of the main contenders
early on and David Shreeve held on successfully to take the
flag in race three, a win rather expected after his showing
at Wisbech last month.
