Cadwell Park, MR2 Race Series
Cadwell Park Saturday 1st September 2012 Having never driven at Cadwell Park before, I was grateful for some Friday afternoon testing that was available. Using old tyres I spent the hours test learning the circuit so that during qualifying it would be familiar and I could concentrate on doing the best lap possible. Qualifying – […]
MR2 Race Series; Mallory Park
MR2 Race Series, MalloryPark12th August 2012. Qualifying; Having only ever tested at Mallory, I knew the circuit well. 2010’s fastest time was a 57.3 which was a good time to aim for. I managed 5 timed laps before I caught some of the slower cars and had managed a time of 58.2, it was at […]

After the data was checked no signs of a throttle issue were present so Tom went back out onto circuit. He again found he was suffering with […]
Lemans Classic 2012
Le mans Classic 5th – 8th July 2012 This was the second time we’ve done this event; the first time was in 2008. Scrutineering didn’t go as well as we’d have liked as we were given a 5 minute penalty in each one of our 3 races during the 24 hour period. The reason for […]
Second in class at Rockingham Motor Speedway.
The Rockingham event for the MR2 race series proved difficult from the moment qualifying started on Saturday morning. Although the weather was dry and bright and I knew the circuit I just couldn’t get a clean quali lap, not through traffic though, it was due to making mistakes on each one of my timed laps. […]
