Nick Ross has taken the round honours at round five of the BNT V8s at Manfeild Circuit Chris Amon at Feilding this weekend.
Ross claimed two pole positions before going on to take a race win, a second place and third placing in the final race.
“Really great weekend, two poles, a win, a second and a third, you can’t complain about that,” said Ross.
“That last race was pretty hectic, the conditions were very slippery, and I was lucky to be able to rejoin after going off the circuit earlier on.
“The conditions this weekend were really challenging. Hot conditions, wet conditions, it made it really challenging trying to pick the right set-up for the car. The team has put in a really great effort, pleased how it all panned out.”
Ross had earlier won Sunday’s first race of the day, backing up second place on Saturday. The race on Sunday morning finished under safety car after heavy rain lashed the circuit with a handful of laps remaning.

The resulting win for Bargwanna closing up the points gap in the championship.
“It goes to show that the championship is far from over, we’ll be going to the next round at Hampton Downs to get pole position and three wins. It should be an exciting finish to the season,” said Bargwanna.
