Jake Hill took a dominant victory in race 2 at Croft to kick-start his Championship challenge.
Polesitter Aiden Moffat again started well keeping Hill and Senna Proctor behind him.
Unlike race 1 Hill put pressure on the Infiniti immediately and the two were side-by-side through Sunny In and Sunny Out with Hill eventually passing the Scot mid way through the complex.
The Safety Car was brought out on lap 2 to recover the stricken Toyota Corolla of Rory Butcher.
Once again three laps were added on to the race distance and Hill restarted well opening up the gap to Moffat to 1.7s in one lap.
Moffat appeared to struggle with the success ballast, quickly becoming the cork-in-the-bottle with Senna Proctor, Josh Cook and Colin Turkington following closely.
Cook was able to pass Proctor on lap 9 going into Sunny In.
Cook then closed right up to the back of Moffat, but much like Hill in race 1, Cook was unable to find a way to pass the Infiniti.
Behind Cook, Turkington, Gordon Shedden and Tom Ingram battled hard into Clervaux allowing Ash Sutton to pass them all.
Ingram soon repassed Sutton putting himself into fourth.
Cook was then forced to defend from Ingram, allowing Moffat to open the gap.
Hill beat Moffat by over 5 seconds with Cook holding onto the final podium position.
Ingram finished in front of Sutton, Shedden and Turkington with Proctor, Chris Smiley and Adam Morgan completing the top 10.
