Steve Brown wins BRCA 200mm Rd5

The 5th round of the BRCA 1/10th 200mm Foam Nationals were run last weekend at the Brooklands track in the south of England. The weather was fine for qualifying and it saw the pole position going to round 3 winner Darren Johnson, racing the Team Magic G4+ while in 2nd place was Robin Hammet with 3rd spot on the grid going to Kyosho driver Steven Brown. Just at the start of the main final however, the rain started to fall and continue for the length of the race, only stopping when the race ended. This of course caused plenty of rush tyre decisions and as all the rain related dramas settled down it was Steve Brown that emerged out in front, keeping it clean and going on to take the win from Mugen racer Paul Knapton in 2nd, only 1 lap behind, while 3rd spot went to Tim Wood racing a Serpent.
