Steve Ross added his name to the prestigious Lady Wigram Trophy after a near perfect weekend at the annual Wigram Revival meeting, held Oct 26-28 2012 at Christchurch’s Powerbuilt Tools Raceway at Ruapuna.<\/p>\n

Competing in the 2012\/13 MSC New Zealand F5000 Tasman Cup Revival series, Ross, driving his McRae GM1, set the fastest time in qualifying on Saturday morning and went on to win all three F5000 category races, driving away from the field in each one while drama unfolded behind him.<\/p>\n

Series super-vet Ken Smith (Lola T430), who was hunting for his fifth Lady Wigram title, finished second in the 15-lap Lady Wigram Trophy feature, while the youngest driver in the field, Alan Dunkley, from Auckland driving the oldest car, a high-wing 1968 Lola T140, finished third.<\/p>\n

Ross, the defending MSC NZ F5000 series champion and early 2012\/13 season points leader, was thrilled to have won the Lady Wigram Trophy, one he had been chasing for several years.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just brilliant. The car went beautifully all weekend and we got a bit of a buffer and just carried on,\u201d said Ross.<\/p>\n

As he did in the first two MSC races of the weekend Ross got the jump on fellow front runner starter Clark Proctor (March 73A) at the start of the Lady Wigram Trophy race but Proctor spun on the second of 15 laps allowing Smith to move into second.<\/p>\n

Proctor dropped down to eleventh but then provided a crowd pleasing spectacle as he fought his way back through the field.<\/p>\n

For much of the race Melbourne-based Kiwi expat Chris Lambden (McRae GM1) and Christchurch\u2019s Ian Clements (Lola T332) provided a great battle for third until Clements spun coming onto the front straight when a suspension upright broke.<\/p>\n

This gave Lambden some breathing space until he was caught two laps later by the hard charging Proctor.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately these two then tangled at the hairpin with four laps to go when it looked as though a podium was within Proctor\u2019s grasp. Both retired allowing young gun Alan Dunkley through to third.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m absolutely stoked with it (the race),” said 22-year-old Dunkley. “Driving the oldest car on the grid and getting on the podium? You can\u2019t ask for better than that. We set off with a medium pace not wanting to cook the tyres and just kept to that pace while others in front of us fell off.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although disappointed not to be have caught Ross, Smith was thrilled with his podium after earlier winning the Wigram Cup race driving one of his other cars, a 2-litre Swift DB4 Formula Atlantic single-seater, in the John Hawkins Memorial Formula Libre Invitation class.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe weekend was mighty. I loved it,” said the 71-year-old. “At the end of the day we\u2019ve had good fun in the little car (Swift DB4) and run second here today which is no mean feat.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe (Ross) had too much horsepower and I was losing brakes so I had to back off for the last six laps or so. The pedal was going flat to the floor and I had to pump it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ross’s winning run began with a lights-to-flag victory in the weekend’s first MSC series race on Saturday afternoon. Clark Proctor joined Ross on the front row of the grid after beating Ken Smith to the second quickest qualifying time, but like Smith – who started from P3 on the second row of the grid – he was no match for Ross who set the fastest race lap – a 1:18:533 – as he edged away to cross the finish line just over 10 seconds ahead of Proctor with Smith a further three-quarters of a second back in third.<\/p>\n

Fourth was Brett Willis (Lola T330) from Rotorua, fifth, former MSC series champion Ian Clements from Christchurch and sixth Chris Lambden.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Alan Dunkley showed signs on Saturday of what was to come with a qualifying lap which put him on the fourth row of the grid and early pace in the opening race which saw him up to sixth place. A spin put him back down the field though and he crossed the line back where he started – in eighth place.<\/p>\n

Ross also won the weekend’s second MSC race on Sunday morning, this time by just over 17 seconds with Ken Smith this time pipping Clark Proctor for second. Smith didn’t get the best of starts and after being swamped in the run to the first corner found himself with some work to do.<\/p>\n

\u201cSteve (Ross) eased off at the line which was unfortunate,” said Smith. ” He should have kept it going as everybody had to back out and that\u2019s when everyone jumped me.”<\/p>\n

That dropped Smith from third to fifth after the first corner with Chris Lambden emerging in third place behind Ross – who was already pulling away – and Proctor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

It wasn’t long before Smith was making progress, however, the determined veteran catching and passing Brett Willis by the end of the first lap then Chris Lambden a lap later.<\/p>\n

By this time Ross had a six second gap on Proctor with Smith a further three seconds back and catching. Smith then caught Proctor after six laps, passing him coming out of turn one. This was the order they finished.<\/p>\n
