Hi everyone,
Last weekend at Cadwell Park was another very successful one for me, taking two wins, both from pole position with one fastest lap into the bargain too.
Both races were quite tough, although I had built a 4 second advantage in the first, it was red flagged and restarted with just four minutes to go, meaning a frantic few laps of defending from last years champion David Bartholomew, and Ed Pither.
The second race followed a similar pattern, but for the full 15 minutes! Dave and Ed both pushed very hard, and the three of us broke away from the main pack. It was only on the last couple of laps when Ed got slightly caught out on half the North Sea?s fossil fuel content around the mountain section that I was able to pull out any sort of gap!
As a result of my success, I have been offered a drive in the Dunlop Sport Maxx Cup, courtesy of Dunlop and the Race Academy. This is just a one-off, to take place at Castle Combe on the 18th and 19th July, however hopefully it will lead to bigger and better things!
Dunlop have offered me the use of a Mardi Gras Motorsport SEAT Leon FR for the weekend, which will take some adapting to from the Locost, but I?m hoping for a strong showing!
I?ll post up a report after the weekend!
Until then,
Matt
