FERRARI HILLCLIMB CHAMPIONSHIP
REPORT : ROUND 7 : PRESCOTT : 24/25JUNE 2000

A top-quality 11-car entry in the Ferrari class included tipos as diverse as the 246 Dino and 550 Maranello. Saturday's practice was just about dry and Geoffrey Rollason (360 Modena) set the quickest time at a 50.37, ahead of the usual chargers, including Robin Ward (308GTB), Geoff Dark (308GT4) and Jon Goodwin (355GTS). The latter looked to have a really quick second practice run but had a mighty moment coming out of Orchard and missed Ettores completely. It promised to be a good competition on the Sunday.

The weather duly improved and it was Goodwin who set the only sub-50 sec. run, with a 49.67, to take the lead ahead of Rollason, Ward and John Marshall (328GTB).

None of these front runners improved on their second runs and therefore the overall order remained the same. Geoff Dark ended up fifth behind the leading quartet, with Brian Jackson (308GTB) next up, ahead of Richard Allen in the powerful 550 Maranello, who found the going a little ponderous in the close confines of Prescott.

With the PEP percentages applied Robin Ward's excellent times gave him the maximum 20 points, ahead of Jon Goodwin and John Marshall. With seven rounds now run the top of the Championship table continues to feature Ward and Marshall, with Goodwin in third place.

The next round of the Championship takes place on 22nd July at Loton Park.
