Another double-header at Lime Rock. Gregg dominated the first heat and led from pole to the chequered flag. Only Keyser finished on the same lap. Haywood and Minter battled for second early on but then various woes dropped them back down the field.
Gregg again dominated the second heat until a broken throttle cable dropped him out of contention. Keyser went on to take a well-deserved win. The Datsun of Bob Sharp was a surprise second.
