The 3rd round of the 2012 LGM round ran again in changeable condition, but the driver on form Thomas Turner, took the second day by storm. The first round winner Dean Macdonald returned for the Monday race, driving overnight from the Stars event at Kimbolton. Macdonald soon got into the swing of it with a first heat win, straight out of the box, but that was to be his only taste of victory today. Turner took wins in heat 2 and heat 3, the wet conditions again suiting his style around the Rowrah circuit in Cumbria. Scott Snell also showed he could be quick along with Dylan Lee & Herbie Grout. With Turner on Pole, Snell 2, Grout 3, and Macdonald on grid 4, we were set for a close race. At the start, as the lights changed to green, Turner took the lead, but Macdonald made a rapid switch from the outside to the inside nipping ahead of Grout and into 2nd, not wanting to take Turner out, stamped on the brakes too hard and uncharacteristically spun, causing chaos behind at the narrow first corner. Mario Mills who started grid 5, again not wishing to hit Macdonald either, spun in unison then colliding with Dylan Lee, which was hard enough to wipe them both out of the race. As the track cleared, Turner had an easy lead away from the pack, a lead he was never going to lose, taking the win by nearly 4 seconds, Grout managed to miss some of the mayhem and match Turners laps, but was unable to close the gap and finished 2nd. Snell again being wrong footed at the start finished a strong 3rd. Macdonald was totally last at the start and having got back up to 4th place, again matching Turner on pace by a mere 0.004, but, later the clerk of the course excluded him for overtaking on the yellow 'light', Lucas Nannetti inherited 4th place, with Daniel Milner, Chris Whitton 5th & 6th respectively. Turner clamed the pole, the win and the fastest lap 'AGAIN' making it the perfect bank holiday weekend for him.

Tommy Turner is the man of the moment. At Round 2 of the LGM at the Rowrah circuit, Turner displayed a class drive, with a faultless 3 heat wins, pole position, final win & fastest lap to boot !. The wet conditions suiting Turner as the field, all on brand new control Wet tyres for the first time this year. Turner managed to pull an 8 second gap over his rivals in the final and put his mark on his championship assault. Dylan Lee started from grid 11 after having a bad heat, finished an excellent 2nd, to back up his 3rd from the weekend before. Herbie Grout had a distance 3rd position followed by Mario Mills in 4th. The race was quite spread out with time gaps between the runners. Other notables were brothers, Thomas & Joshua Rafferty finishing 9th & 10th and receiving the best newcomer awards. After at the presentation, Jason Turner, father of Thomas stepped in to comment at the post race interview saying that "all the work was done by the mechanic, all the driver had to do was sit in it and drive, he also thanked Jordan Baines for his help, and Frag for help in putting the awning up " all done in good taste of course !. Raining today what will tomorrow bring for the Monday race, Round 3.

Well done to Dean Macdonald on his maiden win at the first round of the 2012 LGM Championship at PF International yesterday. The racing was very close throughout the day, but Dean showed he was a class act by winning two heats, scoring the pole and winning the final on his RK chassis. The race was always going to be strong from the Championship favorite Tommy Turner, he managed to pass Macdonald, but was unable to hang on. The surprise of the field was Dylan Lee who scored the fastest lap of 1.07:11 which is a new lap record on the long circuit, Dylan found his way passed briefly, but ended the race a very strong 3rd. Mario Mills upped his challenge for the title, after finishing ahead of Scott Snell & Herbie Grout who finished 5th & 6th respectively. Top novice of the day was Ross Woodford who finished 11th overall ahead of his 9 novice rivals.
