Kingsley Ruddy (Suzuki 1000) missed the practice day, but still qualified second fastest for the Modern Classics Formula One class.

Ruddy missed the second after suffering a gear-box oil leak in the Powerbike 1000 race immediately before, leaving Sands to take victory ahead of Karl Fuller (Yamaha 1000).

Owen Richardson (Kawasaki 750) had only scored in two of the previous eight races in the Modern Classic Superbikes, but despite that was still leading the class by 13 points from Matt Taylor (Kawasaki 750).

He could not make the re-run, so ended the day with three wins.

Taylor finished fifth and third in the two races he completed, so the gap has now stretched to 46.

He did not score a point all weekend while rival Raymond Stagg added another 95 to his score, climbing to 394, a lead of 129.

Stefan Cappella won the BSN Man of the meeting for his exceptional performance in the 3 hour Endurance race on the Saturday, in which he finished third in the Prime Factors Performance Hose Racing Team;

He then stayed on and contested the two PowerBike 1000 races on the Sunday.

It was unusual for the 25-year-old salesman from Reigate, Surrey to run in the big MotoGrande class, but against very strong opposition he qualified on Pole, over a second quicker than the rest and went on to win the two races on his BMW1000, setting the fastest lap each time.
