Trevor Willis secured the 2017 British Hillclimb Championship Title at Prescott Hillclimb this weekend. His closest rival Wallace Menzies retired in the first run-off, which meant that fifth place was enough for Willis to secure the title in the second run-off.
In the rainsoaked run-offs some unfamiliar names came to the top. Richard Spedding dominated the run-offs this weekend. The GWR Raptor pilot was the only pilot to go under 44 seconds both times. Robert Kenrick is another GWR Raptor driver, but his car is powered by a smaller 1000cc Suzuki engine. All the more amazing that Kenrick finished fifth and fourth in the run-offs! Alex Summers is still recovering from his injuries sustained at Gurston Down. His girlfriend Debbie Dunbar took the wheel of his DJ Firehawk at Prescott and collected her first run-off points.
