Qualifying started with the Micro Scalextric Super Stock 6.0 cars - and they were rapid, with the top 7 all clocking times under half a second...

   

Nico and Ken were separated by fastest second-best time. Iain's Nissan lost an exhaust pipe - but it has been successfully recovered and is safely in his return box.

Next up were the two pancake classes... which seemed really slow in comparison! A few cars needed a return to the garage for some work to get them fired-up. All cars got a thorough warm-up - and this is what they managed down the eighth mile...

   

   

Bill's pancake cars leave a big hole in those qualifying lists. If they arrive in the morning, the race officials have decided Bill's T-Jet will be slotted into the ladder and his 4-Gear will substitute for Rose's Camaro. Fingers-crossed... But even if they don't arrive in time, at least they will be here for the UK Autumn Nationals in September.

Expect the Street Stock qualifying results just before 8pm.
