TQ and 2nd at RD4 of the Brca RallyCross Pro national championship at North West Nitro - NWN
My whole package felt dialled this weekend, allowing me to TQ and set the fastest semi time to line up on pole for the 45 minute A main!
The flag dropped and early on I was able to extend a lead to 10+ seconds, then the heavens opened and very slowly Elliot was closing in, my car still felt super good but having to battle with lapped cars in the wet made thing difficult for me. Me and Boots had a great race for the last 5 minutes swapping positions a few times, 2 corners from the finish I left a cars width on the inside and Elliot got by!
Of course disappointed in myself for letting that happen but congratulations to Elliot for a great win and a great race!
I cannot fault any of my equipment which all worked amazingly. Thanks to the track crew for an awesome event, my dad and brother for great work in the pits and finally my sponsors for their support!
I know what needs to be done at the last round in September and I will be doing everything possible to achieve my goal! But first we have a world championship to prepare for.
