Ross Overcomes and Holds Position

Being knocked out of contention in the opening race at Manfeild Park at the weekend has not hurt Cambridge driver Nick Ross as he maintains status quo in the BNT V8s Championship before entering the final round next month.
 
Continuing to sit sixth in the series is a marked improvement on last season's ninth place and well within reach of the team's goal of finishing fifth this year. Also Ross and the Total Lubricants Commodore are the highest placed Holden of the BNT V8s Championship.
