COLLINSON EDGES KROEF TO WIN ROUND TWO AT HAMPTON DOWNS

Coming into Race Three, it was one win apiece for Brad Kroef and Glen Collinson. Then in the final showdown, Glen won Race Three  giving him enough points to win the round over Brad. But not far behind them, Greg Kroef had a fight on his hands holding off a persistent Phill Ross, doing just enough to come home 3rd.
