Group C Spa 21-23 May 2010

Fri, 28 May 2010 16:12:00 +0000

The team had a fabulous weekend at Spa with some good racing and equally good weather! Damax were running the two Spices of McKay and Furness, both co-driven by Robin Ward. With the Furness Buick Spice rebuild only just complete, this was the first track outing for the car and Race 1 was an opportunity to iron out some gremlins, but at the expense of not finishing the race. With Robin stranded out on track McKay was left to drive the whole 1 hr race to finish 2nd in class and 8th overall, the car performing faultlessly throughout. Race 2 saw McKay/Ward take 1st in class and 3rd overall but this was later re-classified to 5th overall due to a pit stop outside the permitted window, attributable to a comms error on Robin's radio. This did not affect the class win and with the Furness car taking the class 3rd it was an impressive finish to the weekend.
