After the three heats the points were: Merv Dudley 5 + 3 + 5 = 13 pts; Sid Taylor 4 + 5 + 4 = 13 pts. A 3-lap run-off was held to avoid a dead heat. [Dudley and Taylor split the prizemoney between them, and suggested the runoff. It would have been equally reasonable to add up the total time for the three races.] 1 S Taylor 1:55 1:48 1:50 5:33 1 13 M Dudley 1:56 1:48 1:49.5 5:33.5 2 Event 6: St John's Ambulance handicap for racing cars Car Driver lap1 lap2 lap3 lap4 lap5 lap6 lap7 lap8 HcpTime Time Hcp 14 G Wakelin 3:12 2:02 2:03 2:01 2:00 2:01 2:00 2:02 17:09 16:21 1 4 S Anderson 2:04 1:51 1:59 1:58 1:55 1:55 1:57 1:57 17:12 15:36 2 7 J Walker 2:04 2:03 1:58 1:56 2:00 1:52 1:57 1:55 17:21 15:45 3 8 D Hall 2:18 2:12 2:09 2:10 2:09 2:09 2:09 2:10 17:26 17:26 4 11 D Green 2:12 1:58 2:03 1:59 1:58 2:00 1:57 2:01 17:28 16:08 5 2 S Negus 2:08 1:58 1:58 1:58 1:54 1:53 1:55 1:55 17:31 15:39 6 19 M Dudley 2:02 1:54 1:53 1:52 1:52 1:51 1:53 1:53 17:33 15:09 9 A Badger 2:10 1:59 1:58 2:03 1:58 2:00 1:58 2:11 17:37 16:17 1 S Taylor 2:06 1:57 1:57 1:56 1:54 1:56 1:58 1:57 17:41 15:41 16 R A Davies 2:19 2:14 2:09 2:12 2:10 2:10 2:10 2:07 18:51 17:31 18 W Fitzgerald 2:14 2:04 2:04 2:03 2:04 2:06 DNF 13
