The Pro races were fast a furious with plenty of action.

George Day held fourth until Jamie Morgan blasted past with Dean Dillon holding a close sixth. A close race where passing was difficult.

In the final Pro / Pro Am race of the day Mark McLernon took the lead from the start but there was a close battle he was challenged by Dafydd Davies who moved ahead at the halfway point and taking a third win and enough points to grab the championship win. Harry Walker was seventh but also very determined managing to find a way through to third and challenging for second passing Mark McLernon on the final lap, mostly taking advantage of the high berms and blasting round the outside of his rivals. Tom Day held a safe fourth ahead of Dean Dillon and George Day.
