Round 2 of the BRCA nationals in Mendip was run to EFRA style with bump-ups and a 45 minute final.
Saturday was damp in the morning due to rain Friday night, the track wasnt really that good until 3:00 and still wasnt to good then. The car was quite good anyway, and we tryed a couple of engines.

On Sunday the weather was really good, In the round of practise in the morning the track wasnt very good. In the first round of qualyfying we had problems, In the second round I took TQ by 3 seconds in front of Serpent driver Simon Wood. In the third I was on to improve by 1 second but I made a mistake which lost me around 3 seconds but I was still on TQ, and in the fourth round I improved my time by 1 second puttin me on TQ. We had our 15 minute warm-up for the top 4 just before the semi's

In the Final I got off to a good start staying in first place, I stayed there for the rest of the race and got 1st position. 2nd place was Johnathan Dobney and 3rd place was Kevin Taylor.

Until next time,
Kyle
