Ryan Bensley produced a faultless drive at Snetterton to secure the Stock Hatch Championship and maintain his perfect record on his home track.

The King's Lynn racer had to beat title rival Jeff Humphries to lift the crown and after taking pole position he raced to the chequered flag unhindered for his sixth victory of the season.

"I was so nervous before the start," said the local driver, who had big support from the partisan crowd.

Two Wisbech racers, Terry Roughton and Gareth Wright, finished in fourth and fifth place while Blofield's Martin Ward ended up 13th narrowly ahead of the outgoing champion, Wisbech's Maurice Hayden.

A pair of victories in Class A of the Toyota MR2 Championship secured King's Lynn's Arthur Gilmour the series crown while Bury St Edmunds racer Steve Lumley won the first and followed first-time winner Phil Wilson home in the second.

King's Lynn's Chris Petto very nearly defeated Ian Carvell in the second of the VW Golf GTi races. Martyn Brown, also from Lynn, finished fifth in the first race while Thetford's Luke Wales claimed 9th and 14th places. Chris Holmes took an easy victory in the Formula 4 race after Jeremy Walker, his team-mate in the Phil Wills Van Diemen team, had spun. Attleborough's Barry Pritchard came through to take second place.

Richard Jenkins was a fine third in the opening Locost race only to be knocked out of the second while disputing fourth place while Bob Simpson raced to a fantastic victory in the 750 Formula.

Novice racer Emma Laddiman, from Horstead, finished inside the top ten in both Saxmax races, as did Thetford's Peter Struder in the Formula Vee encounters.

Jonathan Wright lost his first Bike Sports race to Jon-Paul Ivey, having dominated the opening event, while Tony Dolley and Andrew Sterling were both double winners in the Hot Hatch and Kit Car events respectively.
