Car club season finale sees Toby Allen come out on top

Thanks to Adam Weller for the season’s Isle of Wight Car Club reports and Allan Marsh for all the great action shots. Ed


Toby Allen proved to be the master of Fort Street at the Isle of Wight Car Club’s season finale last Sunday.

Despite early fears of wrong tests, the drivers were very quick to learn the flowing course.

As the day progressed, a racing line developed, which meant all the drivers had to be very precise on their runs.

Toby Allen proved to be the fastest and most precise throughout the day in yet another new car; a Lotus Elise which he describes as a ‘keeper’.

Kevin Richardson came home second in his Mini , doing enough to steal the 2014 sealed surface championship.

However, Dan Morgan, who finished the day third on the time sheets, did enough to secure the overall championship.

Toby Allen was not the only man to bring a new car out to play. Wayne Hole debuted a new Mazda MX5, however, due to a lack of dampening in the suspension, it was an incredibly bumpy ride.

The Greenen family were once again fighting against each other as well as the rest of the field at the top of the table. However, due to the abrasive nature of the Fort Street surface, their tyres were bald by the end of the day.
