The youngsters were back at Smeatharpe for the first time since their Devon Championship fixture, and numbers were boosted by the latest addition to the ranks, 607 Bonnie Weston, who made a competent debut. Heat one was led off by 218 Rory Pearce and 770 Delilah Farrell, and as the laps ticked by, it looked as though they may have built an unassailable lead. A late surge by 99 Jacob Roff saw him hunt down Farrell, but Pearce held firm at the front, as he secured a maiden Ministox success. Farrell made the running in heat two, whilst fellow white graders Pearce and 117 Max Starr tangled and crashed out at the Honiton end. 313 Charlie Weston and 257 Kieran Hibberd also made good starts, and they were soon advancing towards the front. Hibberd eventually took command, to win from Weston, whilst 522 Jacob Mikulla grabbed third place late on. The final, for The Lego Trophy, brewed into a duel between Weston and Hibberd. With the track surface slippery, traction was at a premium. Weston kept the lead for the second half of the race and withstood a spirited last bend challenge from Hibberd to hold on for a fine win. 114 Chalie Lomas completed the top three.
