The single practice session for the combined Trico Trans Am/TFH Hire TA2 Series saw James Moffat fastest in his GRM Ford Mustang.
Moffat’s 2:11.8440 on the last lap edged out teammate James Golding for the top spot by 0.15 seconds with Nash Morris third, a further half second adrift.
The session was interrupted with two red flags, the first for Ben Grice who stopped at The Cutting and was able to resume unaided, and then a second that ended the session for Ben Gomersall who had wall contact at Forrest Elbow.
Mustang drivers filled the top seven places with Tom Davies fourth in front of Nathan Herne, Grice, and series leader Todd Hazelwood.
Elliot Barbour was eighth in the highest-placed Chev Camaro just in front of TA2 points leader Jarrod Hughes, also in a Camaro mounted and Ben Bargwanna (Mustang) who made a late surge to be 10th of the 41 that practiced.
Outside the top 10 were a fleet of Mustangs with Adam Garwood 11th ahead of Josh Haynes, Blake Tracey, Josh Thomas, Jackson Rice, Gomersall, Cameron Laws and Lachlan Evennett.
