TIME ATTACK RD 4 – Brands
– BTT Motorsport
Having only driven Brands for the first time in March this year, Dan needed to get up to speed as quickly as possible. Warm up we sent Dan out on is wet tyres which we have done at previous rounds to just get a feel of the car and track before stepping up the tyre choice. This round Dan has moved from the tried and trusted AR-1 to the new CR’S, they must have been a lot faster because dan refused to pit mid-session but took qualifying P1 and then stepped it up again for P1 in the Final with a s Solid 54.02. Maximum Points. Simply Loveleh.

Feeling a little anxious before the Round with 32 cars on track during her sessions and traffic going to play a huge part in setting fast times. Step in Mark from who came down to Focus on Laura and help her maximise her confidence and settle her nerves before each session. Leaving Myself and Ell to focus on the cars and making sure they are working perfectly! Teamwork really does make the dream work. Laura managed a 57.801 another PB and placed 8th out of 11 BUT with only 7 tenths between herself and P5 which was the closest gap throughout the whole field. Well Done Laura.

“True Success Requires Sacrifice” and sometimes that’s what Luke does. Without going too much into detail Luke had a nightmare two weeks leading up to brands (watch it on his youtube that explains everything better than I ever could) Warm up and Practice quickly showed is this was a 3way dog fight for the win, the veteran that is , and in the GTI. Qualifying and the Final proved difficult for Luke with IAT’s reaching north of 60Degs. Solution.. 5L Bottles on Water on the intercooler before going out. Job done, Managed to get a few fast laps in and was just pipped to P2 by a Tenth. Considering the efforts gone into getting the car ready for Brands. We will take P3. Great Effort Luke and Everyone involved behind the scenes.
