Number of lap records set by driver/class:
Tristan Cliffe 3 Mono 2000
Jeremy Timms 3 Mono 2000
Geoff Fern 3 Mono Classic and Mono 1400

Jeremy Timms took Amanda Whitaker’s longstanding Silverstone National Record in Mono 2000 because Amanda’s 1997 record of 57.21 was timed to 1/100 sec, and Jeremy’s new mark was timed to 1/1000 sec at 57.209
Peter Venn took David Dudley’s Mono Classic record at Mallory, both set in the lovely Anson SA4
John Loebell just squeezed out Peter Bragg’s Anglesey Coastal record, to add to his existing old Anglesey circuit record; but Peter got revenge by taking the Croft mark away from John
The only new mark of the year in Mono 1600 was set by Chris Dittman at Spa, using Nigel Davers’ car.
Snetterton records will now need to be reset, as the new circuit will be in use from the start of 2011.
