TASMAN SERIESNoyes finished up on 45.3 after his series of hair raising spins, McConnell got around in 46.2 and both Cooper and Stewart returned 46.3 to go to the rear of the field.Stewart spent most of practice replacing his fuel pumps and valves without finding the cause of his fuel starvation and it was only the last night that he traced it to glue in the lines.A short session this morning nearly brought Gardner to grief when Noyes spun in front of him at the fast sweeper and Gardner wore flats in his tyres with emergency braking to avoid the rotating McLaren.A furious Gardner subsequently dressed Noyes down in no uncertain terms and the American was much more subdued in the race, driving within himself and giving plenty of road to the faster cars.Fast men of the Tasman circus -STP driver Matich and McRae share a joke before the start of the Levin round. THE RACETHE ROLLING START saw McRae gun his car into the lead, which he held for the next two laps until a near lose on the same bend where Gardner later crashed, dropped him to third place behind Matich and Gardner.Seconds later, two tail end cars -Ken smith's Lotus 69 and Robbie Francevic's McLaren Ml0B -tangled at the foot of the main straight in a 120 mph crash. They speared off the track, slamming into a wire mesh fence bordering the circuit, in what was a very nasty accident.Luckily, the two drivers - both New Zealanders escaped injury.Smith's car was wrecked and Francevic's car - the McLaren which McRae raced two seasons ago - was badly damaged.Matich's lead was short lived.McRae took both him and Gardner down the main straight to go into the lead again on lap eight.Setting a scorching pace and drawing· a way from Matich by about half a second a lap, McRae was never seriously challenged from then on.Lapping the backmarkers from the fourteenth lap, McRae mowed down car after car to cut out the 75 miles in 48 minutes 34.3 seconds a relatively fast time considering the oily track.He was also credited with the fastest lap of the race at 43.9 seconds, repeating his best practice time, compared to Matich's quickest lap of 45.5 and Hailwood's 45.6.Gardner came unstuck on the fastest bend on the track -a sweeping right-hander leading out of the. main straight where the fastest cars reach in excess of 140 mph.His engine cut out about the middle of the bend, leaving Gardner no alternative but to spin the Lola into the fence, only about 30 feet away from the road.The car took most of the impact on its right front wheel and although it finished up with all four wheels still intact, the monocoque tub was badly twisted and most of the suspension was bent out of shape.Gardner, of course, was bitterly disappointed about his sudden change of luck, but happy enough to step from the car unscathed.The crash will not alter his plans to fly to Sydney tomorrow to track test the Lola T300 which Niel Allen was to have driven in the championship. Allen's mechanics have rebuilt the car - following his practice crash at Surfers Paradise last month - and it has been tentatively bought by up and coming Sydney driver, Bob Muir.Muir will campaign it in the Australian half of the series and also plans to take the car to the U.S. later this year for the Continental Championship.The four points picked up by Hailwood, following the six points which he earned for his second place at Pukekohe, game him a total of 10 championship points, one ahead of McRae and Gardner, with Matich six, Max Stewart, five and Kevin Bartlett and Teddy Pilette, three.Stewart took his Seiko sponsored Elfin-Repco to fourth place today after a magnificent drive from the rear of the grid.He started from 14th position after being troubled in practice by the same fuel feed problem which had cost him third place at Pukekohe.This was eventually traced to blobs of Araldi Le glue, originally used to seal the fuel tanks, blocking the fuel lines.Driving in his usual determined manner, Stewart never let up in his pursuit of the leaders, passing car after car in the early stages to get up to fifth place.He hounded his former team mate Bartlett until Bartlett's McLaren Ml0B was forced out on lap 43 with a broken halfshaft.Bartlett, in turn, had had quite a spirited scrap with Belgian's Teddy Pilette, also in a McLaren Ml0B, in the opening laps.Bartlett finally got the better of Pilette, who was also passed by John McCormack and Britain's David Hobbs.But Pilette captured fifth place after this entertaining race within a race, when first McCormack and then Hobbs briefly pitted their respective Ansett-Elfin Repco and McLaren M22 cars to tighten loose rear wheels.Stewart and Pilette finished a lap behind while the sixth placegetter, New Zealand's David Oxton, completed 61 laps to be two laps down in his locally built Begg-Chevrolet.America's Evan Noyes (McLaren MIS) was seventh and McCormack eighth, both on 61 laps.Frank Radisich (McLaren-Repco) was ninth, Baron Robertson (Brabham BT23C) tenth and Hobbs 11th, all on 60 laps, while Garrie Cooper logged 59 laps in the second Ansett Elfin to fill 12th place.Non-finishers besides Gardner and Bartlett were Canada's David McConnell, whose pretty little 2-litre GRD completed 30 laps and Smith and Francevic.A crowd. of about 15,000 watched the race, which was full of excitement from start to finish, despite the lack of competition for most of the race between the three leaders.The Levin circuit, which is set inside the spacious grounds of the local showground and horse racing course, allows no margin for error.Most of the drivers we worn out at the finish fro, the sheer hard work of co1 tinual cornering and gearchanging.
