During the early races it seemed both the weather and the crowd would make the Motor Racing Club's annual race a big success. "A potential record crowd for a Lady Wigram event," said Mr G. F. Sheppard, secretar yof the meeting, this morning "Conditions-fine and sunny, with a stiff easterly wind-are excellent; there are class competitors, and a large crowdthis meeting promises to be one of the best yet." Cars were four or five deep along the back straight and the hairpin bend half an hour before the start of the meeting. Cars were more than a dozen deep in the main car park opposite the front straight. Untroubled Napier's Dick Langley, driving a 1293 c.c. Austin-Cooper S, had little trouble winning the thirty-minute production saloon car race. Langley led the thirteen starters from start , to finish covering the 2.3 mile circuit seventeen times before the time limit had elapsed. Bryan Innes at the wheel of the Morris-Cooper took second place with as little trouble. The next four placings were hotly contested, nowever. After one lap Hugh Kettel-. well (Auckland), in a Morris- Cooper S was lying birth. But over the next three laps he showed some excellent driving and slipped into third place. Hugh Bagwell (Havelock North), driving yet another Austin Cooper_S, stayed with Kettelwell and for the remainder of the race these two drivers had an interesting tussle. Kettelwell eventually took the honours. Christchurch driver Carlos Neate (Prince G.T.) and Barry Phillips (Lotus Cortina) also kept close company throughout the race, with Phillips having a : Slight edge to take fifth place. The 250 L.M.
