Last Sunday, away up north past Inverness, at the deep sandy circuit at Tain, Carless swept all before him for three dominate race wins for the overall, and not surprisingly, the £150 for the three holeshot wins sponsored by ‘Monster Energy Drinks’ to boot.
Former Scottish champ, now a senior member of the fraternity TWMA Kawasaki’s Stuart Flockhart (just turned 30-years-of-age) ran him a close second in two of the three races finishing runner-up overall on the day.
Third place went to MOM Honda’s Ross Rutherford.
Carless blasted out the gate in race one to open a few eyes with a Monster holeshot, many people wondered immediately ‘who was that man?...’ and off he went opening an immediate gap between himself and chasers Flockhart, Englishman Graham Riley, Gavin Robertson and Ross Rutherford.
Half a lap into the race Carless face planted starting about 20 seconds behind new leader Flockhart, Riley, Robertson and Rutherford.
However, it only took him four laps to get back to the front where he stayed until the flag.
Flockhart finished some 26 seconds adrift in second place with Rutherford a fine third.
Again Carless swept to the Monster Holeshot with Flockhart and Riley for close company.
No early falls this time and the Welshman eased to a comfortable win from Flockhart and teenager James Hutchison in what was becoming a hard day in the deep sand for some.
No surprises in the final championship race as again Carless ripped to the Monster holeshot £50 money prize with again Flockhart and this time Tony Craig chasing him down hard.
Down hard went Flockhart mid way through the race leaving the door open for Hutchison to show what he’s capable of in the future with a fine second spot to Carless’ win.
Craig stayed on board and ran home third after some fast racing on a cracking championship track.
