Heat 3 - 16 Cars
Dave Smith waisted no time in heat 3 in getting into the lead and stayed there for most of the race until Nick Smith moved him wide to take it up, but Dave managed to get back on Nick and spin him out of contention. This allowed Colin Aylward to take up the lead with Langridge and Munford chasing, Munford doing a last bend lunge to grab second on the line.

Billy Smith was sent airborne when he rid over the wheels of Ryan Eaton. Then with Dave Smith once again leading it started to rain. A few laps later, Nick Smith bumpered his way past and took up the running as Martin Coles clipped the marker tyres and went airborne. As we entered the last stages Smith was still leading ahead of Sole, Dave Smith and Luke Hamilton. There was a good battle between Hamilton and Sole which came to nothing as Munford fired a last bend lunge on the both of them to send them into the wall and give Ben 5th place.
