Dave Dutch:

Isle of Wight Car Club: Autotest report

Thanks to John Dutch for this report from the Isle of Wight Car Club. Ed


With the weather on our side Round Two once again saw an epic battle between Dave Dutch and Toby Allen fighting it out for that fastest overall time of the day.

But this time they had more than each other to think about as John Dutch, Chris Greenen, Chris Wilson, Adam Greenen and Andy Williams were hard on there heels for that top spot.

This time after Toby took the fastest time from Dave at round one, Dave was out to set a time for all the others to try and beat and that’s what he did with a fastest time of 1:00:72 followed by Toby with a 1:01:22 and then John Dutch with a 1:01:97 only 1.25 seconds between them.

Final Overall Result
1st Dave Dutch 1:00:72
