Provisional Results and Championship Points from Round 3 of the Trydel EZI UP and GO Victorian Hill Climb Championship.

 

The 2024 Trydel EZIUP Victorian Hill Climb Championship continued on Sunday 30th June, where a big field of 78 entries lined up to take on the clockwise short course at Bryant Park.

 

Saturday afternoons practice session gave a few competitors a chance to try some wet weather running as the heavens opened and the track became extremely slippery. As it turns out, it was good practice for Sunday.

 

Weather conditions started off cold and wet on Sunday, with competitors completing the reconnaissance lap on a wet surface. The track slowly dried and by the 3rd run, there was enough of a dry line that many competitors set their fastest time of the day on this particular run.

Then the rain returned, causing Run 4 to be held on a wet track, with quite a few competitors opting out of setting a time.

The next 4 runs saw competitors slowly gain more confidence as a dry line started to reappear, with most competitors threatening to, if not actually setting their best times of the day by Run 8.

Mike Barker came out firing from the start of the day, setting his best time of 35.26 on Run 3 in his Hayward 06.

2nd and 3rd was a battle of the Minahan brothers, Peter and Bruce, in their shared Hayward 07, with Peter edging out Bruce on a 38.70 on his 4th Run compared to 38.82, set on Bruce’s 3rd Run.

4th was Jordan James, who took advantage of his Evolution Lancers’ AWD grip to set a 38.97 on his 3rd Run. Zachary Hanlin rounded out the top 5 in his BMW M140i on a 39.24.

 

Fastest tin top was Jordan James in his Mitsubishi Evolution Lancer on a 38.97, with Zachary Hanlin 2nd on a 39.24. Jacob White was 3rd fastest in his V8 powered Nissan Skyline with a 39.81 second Run.

 

Christine Crombie was the fastest female around the course with a time of 46.49 in a Volkswagen Scirocco, which placed her 60th outright.

 

The 6th and final Round of the championship will be held in Ararat at One Tree Hill on August 10th and 11th.

 

Provisional results and the Championship points are attached in this update.
