HAVING the right car for the conditions has helped local motor sport ace Stuart Inwood “clean up” during round five of the NSW Hillclimb Championships held at Grafton earlier this month.
Inwood took outright honours in his Nissan Skyline R33 GTR. He also recorded the fastest time for a tintop and as well as taking first place in the sports sedan class.
A mechanic by trade, an indication of Inwood’s fine form can be judged by the fact that the last time a tintop racer won the event outright was way back in 1999.
It was a big day for the Bathurst contingent who headed north for the weekend with Scott Tutton just being edged out by Inwood for the outright victory.
However, Tutton’s sizzling performance did earn him a win in his Type SV class.
Not to be outdone, David Tutton rounded off a big weekend for the locals with victory in the Improved Production Over 3000cc class.
Inwood yesterday described what a nail biting day it was at Grafton.
“There were six cars all within 100th of a second of each other for the last three runs,” he said.
“In the end the biggest battle came down to myself and Scott who was driving an EVO.
“He did a great job on his final run of the day and I was five cars later. I only just managed to bump him off the top spot.”
