Banks Night Club Top Fuel Bike final

Neil Midgley 6.7794/143.07 def. Steve Woollatt 24.4663/27.42. Neil off the throttle with chute out by 1000ft as Steve had problems and was off the throttle shortly after the launch. 1.0103 to 60ft and 3.9877/183.98 to half track for Neil, Steve's 60ft of 1.4692, 0.4s slower than his best this weekend told the story but no obvious damage.

Followed by Luke Stevenson who ran his first eight 8.9180/147.14 with 1.2201 60ft and 5.6269/120.84, just shy of the 8.88 which Paul Jackson had agreed that Luke would buy him a tattoo. Now assembling finalists, stay tuned.

Drama in the first pair as Brett Cordelle went skyward on his Hayabusa on the launch and came off the bike which slid down to the 100ft mark.

Mick Winyard left before the tree ran, only for Len Paget's bike to drift to the left and take out the finish line blocks, we will await the race director's decision but suspect that neither go through. Dave Thomas came in as an alternate for Leo Lester to face Shawn Buttigieg from Malta, Shawn running a straight early shut off 7.09.

Neil off on one, clicked just before finish line with chute out. Al went up in smoke off the line, clutch malfunction by the look of it. Incrementals 1.0063 to 60ft and 3.8067/205.77 for Neil, 1.6034 to 60ft for Al who lost traction before then. Steve vs Neil in the final.

Good morning and welcome to the final day our coverage of the STP Springspeed Nationals from Santa Pod Raceway. It's a little bit warmer here, 11C forecast to rise to 16C with a negligible wind speed of 7mph. Density altitude is currently -227ft and courtesy of airdensityonline.com this is expected to rise to 500-700ft during the afternoon.

Yesterday was challenging, with a bitter wind and intermittent drizzle for a lot of the morning. The track crew did their usual fantastic job getting the surface into a racing condition and we completed qualifying sessions 4 and 5. Today will be eliminations, starting with the classes that will be running five rounds, Pro ET, Super Pro ET, Junior Dragster, Sportsman ET and ET Bike, followed by VWDRC. We're looking forward to a great day of racing.

A big Hello to those that are tuned in from around the world. We send special congratulations to Pro Modified racer Bobby Wallace and fiancee Ellie Davis who announced their engagement yesterday. Congatulations to Ollie and Hannah King who were married last weekend in Weymouth. And Happy Birthday wishes to Top Fuel racer Ida Zetterström who we will see racing here at the FIA/FIM Main Event in just under four weeks' time.

Join us at 09:30 for news of eliminations, and in the meantime our galleries from yesterday are available via the Event Index.
