Day One – Qualifying and Race 1<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Defending series\u00a0titleholder, Michael Collins<\/a>, in his Leda LT27\/GM1 qualified on pole and went on to lead the first SAS\u00a0Autoparts\u00a0MSC NZ F5000 Tasman Cup Revival Series race.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Codie Banks in his Lola T332<\/a>, after an outstanding performance in the category qualifying session earlier in the day, did try to give him a run for his money, going head-to-head against Collins for the first four laps of the\u00a0eight-lap\u00a0race.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Collins himself admitted to the challenge he faced:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n

\u201cThere was definitely no cutting out a couple of hot laps then going into cruise mode. I had my ears pinned back from the first lap until the last.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

David Banks, Codie Banks\u2019 father,\u00a0had his Talon MR1\/A\u00a0side-lined by a broken half shaft on Friday. Codie\u2019s speed and performance were able to match Michael Collin’s move for move in the first four laps of the race, with prospects looking bright for the family-based team.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Unfortunately, Codie ran into gear selection issues on the fourth lap and he ended in the pits on the fifth lap.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n

\u201cFirst I couldn\u2019t find a gear to change down into then it took me half the length of the start\/finish straight to get it started again\u2026 but when I\u00a0did,\u00a0I couldn\u2019t find any gears, so figured it was time to stop.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\r\nCodie Banks<\/cite><\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Trailing Collins and Codie was\u00a0former New Zealand Formula Ford champion Kevin Ingram in his Lola T332. He came third in qualifying and when Codie retired, he took second while Brett Willis in his new Lola T332, taking third place after he worked his way up from the 6th position.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In the Lola T400, Glenn Richards, who was fourth quickest during qualifying and was part of the top six slid down the roster after a half-spin.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

4th and 5th places went to Shayne\u00a0Windelburn\u00a0in the Lola T400 and Anna Collins in the Leda LT27, respectively. Russel Greer in the Lola T332\u00a0came in 6th while\u00a0Glen Richards\u00a0came in 7th. Rony Galbraith in the Lola T332 was 9th in the qualifying but he also found himself in the pitstop after a fuel starvation issue.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Tim Rush in the McLaren M22 finished 8th and came out victorious in the Class A standings from other McLaren<\/a> drivers being Frank Karl in the M10B, Tony Roberts in the high-wing McLaren M10A along with a newcomer in the category, Toby\u00a0Annabell\u00a0in the McLaren M10B.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Roberts was initially ahead of Karl and\u00a0Annabell, but Karl found an opening and was able to\u00a0finally overtake Roberts.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              Collins set the fastest race lap at 1:28.532 in his bid to win his second victory at the fifth annual Taupo Historic GP meeting.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              Mechanical issues plagued Codie Banks Lola T332 again on Sunday as engine issues forced Codie to remain side-lined when the problem was found to be terminal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              That left Brett Willis and Kevin Ingram, both in the Lola T332 to claim the final podium places in both the first and final class races.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              Willis, who was a former SAS\u00a0Autoparts\u00a0MSC Series titleholder, was tipped into a half spin as the field entered the first corner on the opening lap however did exceptionally well to secure third-place at the 10-lap Taupo Historic GP Trophy final.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              Anna Collins, Michael Collins\u2019 older sister who was driving the Leda LT27,\u00a0moved up to third place after the first corner excitement. Her rise to third however was short-lived as she was passed by veterans Russell Greer in the Lola T332, Shane\u00a0Windelburn\u00a0in the Lola T400 along with Brett Willis, which placed her back to 6th position.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              Tony Annabell was victorious earlier in the day during the second race – the rolling handicap start. Tony\u00a0Annabell\u00a0started at the front and was able to maintain his lead until the\u00a0end in the McLaren M10B.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              He was challenged by fellow Class A McLaren driver Frank Karl in the McLaren M10B, but after running into some battery issues, Karl slipped back in the race.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              So, the second place went to Tony Galbraith in the Lola T332, while the fastest qualifier Michael Collins in the Leda GM1, who started the handicap race at the back, claiming a well-deserved third place.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                                              Most of the excitement of the race\u00a0came from the position-swapping that happened during the middle of the race after the starting order was set based on qualifying positions that were done Saturday morning.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
