Anne Wong started from the back of the field of thirty cars, having barely qualified for the race in the first place. The front row consisted of European F2 star Dieter Quester in a yellow works BMW 2002 Alpina, with Johnny Leffler in the #45 Newton Enterprises Ford Escort Twin-Cam. Peter Chow’s 1293 Mini S was third on the grid. Lap time difference between Quester and Leffler was about 2 seconds a lap with P.H. Wong confident because the Escort was expected to see considerably improved times. On lap 6, the Escort’s differential packed up on the straight and that was the end of that attempt. On lap 9, Quester lost his gearbox and called it a day. Anne Wong took over the lead and won by a good one and a half minutes ahead of Lucky Kirtisinghe in a Mini S and Ahmed Khan in an Escort Twin-Cam. Anne’s lap times were fractionally slower than that achieved by Brian Foley the previous year.
