Heat 1 Tuesday 23rd January Postponed
Due to severe condensation on the track and significant safety issues, the heat could not take place.
Heat 3 Tuesday 6th February Only 8 teams as one cried off and the other was a 'no-show'.
Heat 4 Tuesday 13th February Postponed
Unbelievably, chaos again ensued due to condensation on the track rendering it unsafe. Rescheduled for Tuesday 12th March.
Heat 5 Tuesday 20th February A very close race with the leader changing 4 times in the last ten minutes. The winner was second with 3 laps to go, and won by 1.5 seconds. Only 9 teams competed as, once again, we had a late withdrawal.
Heat 1 (rescheduled) Tuesday 27th February. Replaced the postponed heat of 23rd January.
Heat 7 Tuesday 5th March McIntyre Hudson
Heat 4 (rescheduled) Tuesday 12th March. Replaced the postponed 13th February round.
Heat 9 Tuesday 19th March - Lewis Foundation heat. This heat was all about the 'Cs' - 1st Carbon Racing, 2nd Cottons Group and 3rd Cosworth.
The Final Tuesday 2nd April The event proved to be very competitive, every team completed more laps than achieved in the heats and the teams that finished first to third could hardly be separated at the finish. Congratulation are extended to DSA Group for winning the event and successfully defending the title they won last year.
