THE final two events of the Woolbridge Motor Club speed events season feature in this weekend’s speedfest on the course at Manor Farm in Charmouth.

The event will see three champions in action on the testing course which has recently been subject to a number of improvements in the vicinity of the start-line where spectator access has now been facilitated.

Regular south-west competitor Mostyn Sherlock, the reigning Top Performance Services Association of Central Southern Motor Clubs (ACSMC) hillclimb champion will be contesting the Road-going Series Production Car 1400cc to 1800cc category in his MG ZR 180.

The Exmouth driver will be joined by Dorchester driver Merv Brake at the wheel of his Mazda MX5 in addition to the rapid golf professional Jonathan Langmead who will be behind the wheel of his Lotus Elan S3.

The Road-going Specialist Production division will see the potent combination that is Ian Ingleheart and his Cosworth BDH-engined Westfield SE.

The Plymouth driver, currently on a high having secured victory in the Bridge Wheels and Tyres Point S Wiscombe Park championship, remains very much in the fight for the honours in the similarly sponsored series of the ACSMC.

Going into the Manor Farm weekend, with four events remaining, the sports car driver has a tenuous lead of a mere 0.66 of one point over second-placed man Dean Gammon who campaigns a Peugeot 106 GTi powered by a 1700cc engine. Also in contention is third-placed driver and Manor Farm class record-holder David Foster in his British Leyland Mini.

Joining the above will be Stephen Moore who has recently claimed victory in the 2015 Meadens Skoda Gurston Down series with his two-litre turbo-charged Mitsubishi Evo 6.

This weekend, Moore will be going head-to-head with Manor Farm Road-going Series Production Car record holder Simon Neve in his similar Evo 6 but with 2.3-litre power-plant.

In addition to the interest surrounding champions and championships, the Road-going Specialist Production Car classes can be relied upon to entertain especially the over 1800cc/1125cc division.

In this category there is the added interest of the battle between vehicles which are powered by car engines (over 1800cc) and motorcycle engines (over 1125cc).

The rapid Mike Williams will be representing the former in his two-litre SEiW against the similar Westfield Megabusas of Adrian Lewis and Andrew Forsyth who will benefit from Suzuki GSX1300R power.

Forsyth has enjoyed a successful debut season with his car and will hoping to add his name to the record book for a second time having secured a class record 12 months ago when he was driving his father’s Alfa Dana in the 500 Owners’ Association class.

A fierce battle for supremacy is expected in the Rally Car class when former Wiscombe Park champion Craig Moore will race Tim Porter in his Darrian T90.

Porter set the original rally car class record at the meeting back in 2011 when he campaigned a Ford Escort, only for Moore, from Lyme Regis, to reset the benchmark on three subsequent occasions prior to the original holder winning it back last year.
