It was a rainy start to the second round of the 750 Motor Club season with drivers trying to cope with the rather wet conditions on track. Even though drivers took care during the rain, we didn't miss out on all the action that we expect from the championships.
The event at Oulton Park was a one day affair featuring all of the championships that weren't at Donington Park last time around. It was the first time that the 750MC had returned to Oulton Park in a number of years. Championships racing were: 5Club MX5 Championship, Tegiwa Civic Cup, Disklok RGB Championship, Cartek Roadsports, Protech Shocks Sport Specials and ROC Bikesports. A varying array of championships that led to a action packed days racing.

The #135 Porsche 968 of Ben Demetriou and Jonathan Evans took home to win with a consistent pace between the two drivers. The #1 Honda Civic Type-R looked set to win the race at 1/3 race distance but unfortunate had to retire due to mechanical issues.
