\nThere was no stopping Mark Dwyer’s Lola T400 at the final round of the 2011 MSC F5000 Tasman Cup Revival Series at the Formula 1 Qantas Australian Grand Prix meeting, held March 25-27 2011 at Albert Park in Melbourne, Australia. The visiting British driver completing a qualifying-and-race clean sweep with another lights-to-flag victory in the six-lap season finale.
\nDespite downplaying his achievement – ‘everything just fell into place really,’ he said afterwards – Dwyer was the class of the MSC field this year, adding two more victories at the Albert Park track to the one he earned when the MSC series first joined the support class roster at the annual Australian Grand Prix meeting in 2009.
\nSunday’s race, which was shortened from eight to six laps when a track marshal fell ill just before the MSC field took to the track, followed a similar format to Saturday’s with Dwyer easing away from his fellow front row starter (in this case top local driver Aaron Lewis in his Chevron B24) and building a lead that no one – not even local hotshots Andrew Robson and James Davison (both Lola T332), and Dwyer’s compatriot Greg Thornton (Chevron B24) – could make an impression on.
\nThat the trio tried is evident by the results – Robson was able to get all the way up to second place with Davison third while fourth placed Thornton set the fastest race lap on his way to fourth – but all three were up against it after failing to finish the first race meant they had to start the second from the back of the grid.
\nAs it was the trio was lucky the second race wasn’t red flagged on the first lap after an incident saw McRae GM1 drivers Stu Lush and Aaron Burson tangle on the start\/finish straight.
\nOf the three Robson was the one who really had the bit between his teeth, making it up to seventh place at the end of the first lap, fifth by the end of the second and second – where he stayed till the flag came out – by the end of the fourth lap.<\/p>\n

Davison and Thornton both took a little longer, the former still in 13th place at the end of the first lap, the latter just ahead in 12th. Both made big gains on the second lap however – Davison to seventh Thornton to ninth – before Davison put in a last late race charge to claim two more places – from fifth to third – on the final lap.
\nLocal driver Bryan Sala (Matich A50) did well to grab second place from compatriot Aaron Lewis early on but like Lewis he was eventually shuffled back by the hard-charging Robinson\/Davison\/Thornton trio, the order at the flag, Dwyer, Robson, Davison, Thornton, Lewis and Abbott.
\nFormer MSC series champion Ian Clement (Lola T332) was another to spend the race working his way forward, eventually getting to 11th, the Christchurch man another to have to start the race from the back of the grid, in his case after not even making the start of the first race when his car’s clutch cried enough.
\nNot so lucky were South African Greg Mills (Sana RD11) and Australian driver Chris Hocking (Matich A53), the pair out after contact saw Hocking’s car catapult over Mills’.
\nTop local driver Darcy Russell (Lola T330) was another who failed to finish, puncturing a tyre after a scrape with one of the trackside walls.
\nGearbox problems, meanwhile, meant series newcomer Chris Lambden (McRae GM1) didn’t even get to complete a lap.
\nRace 1 (Saturday) 8 laps<\/strong>
\nRace two winner Mark Dwyer had a similar lights-to-flag run in the first MSC race of the weekend on Saturday, eventually crossing the finish line just over 20 seconds ahead of Aaron Lewis and David Abbott.
\nAfter qualifying on Thursday, high hopes were held for local young gun James Davison, son of period F5000 class racer Jon, and grandson of four-time Australian Grand Prix winner Lex Davison.
\nBut after joining Dwyer on the front row of the grid for the race on Saturday Davison managed less than a lap before his car’s magneto cried enough.<\/p>\n

Chris Lambden was also in the wars on the opening lap, clashing with fellow McRae driver Aaron Burson as the paired braked for the first turn and ending up – with Burson – in the gravel trap.
\nInitially Greg Thornton and Andrew Robson slotted into second and third place respectively with Aaron Lewis fourth and David Abbott fifth.
\nThat’s the way the race could well have finished too had Robson not been slowed and eventually stopped by a fuel starvation problem and Thornton not ended up in a gravel trap after an unsuccessful move on race leader Dwyer.
\nWith both Thornton and Robson out Lewis inherited second place, Abbott third, with Darcy Russell leading home an all-Australian mid-field pack consisting of Tony Floreani, Bryan Sala, Paul Zazryn, Chris Hocking, Peter Brennan, and Bill Hemming.
\nNext step for the globe-trotting Kiwis behind the successful New Zealand-based MSC F5000 Tasman Cup Revival Series is a trip to the UK to contest two major historic motor racing meetings at the end of June and beginning of July.
\nThe MSC F5000 Tasman Cup Revival Series is organised and run with the support of sponsors MSC, NZ Express Transport, Bonney’s Specialized Bulk Transport, Mobil Lubricants, Pacifica, Smith & Davies, Avon Tyres and Exide.
