No less than 30 sports-racing cars built between 1952 and 1955 filled the starting line for the Freddie March Memorial Trophyon the Sunday evening.
After finishing 5th in the qualifying session Karsten le Blanc in his prestigious Austin-Healey 100S started the race from the second row on the grid. After an enjoyable battle, Karsten finished the race in a very credible 6th position and was the 2nd Healey home!
Tarek Mahmoud qualified 23rd in his Austin-Healey 100. In the race, Tarek fought his way up to finish on a good 19th place.
Both cars, prepared by the Denis Welch Motorsport team ran smoothly with no issues or repairs required.
