2007 Champion Stuart Oliver cemented his title with a dominant victory in the second Class A race of the British Truck Racing Championship at Brands Hatch.
Starting in the same positions in which they finished race one, Oliver again found himself second on the grid behind pole-sitter Chris Levett. However, Levett ran wide on the first bend, beaching his truck in the gravel at Paddock and narrowly avoiding the barrier. Mat Summerfield also spun on the opening lap, dropping him down the field.
Whilst Oliver streaked off into the distance, David Jenkins and Andy Levett engaged in a frenetic tussle for second place. This came to an abrupt end when Levett, father of Chris, crashed out at Druids whilst trying to overtake Jenkins round the outside.
Champion Oliver was impressed by the response from the crowd: "The atmosphere is amazing, it's fantastic to see the appreciation from the crowd" he said. "It makes all the difference when people stay after the race to help us celebrate. I want to thank all the spectators today, as well as my team, family and sponsors for their support this year".
