Chris Grainger takes title at BRCA Rd4

Chris Grainger retained his national touring car title in fine style with yet another win at the fast flowing Halifax circuit last weekend. Coming into round 4 at Halifax, Chris was lying second in the BRCA National touring series, but despite this was still favourite to take the title as a top three finish would be enough for the Yokomo driver. Chris started his campaign in fine style taking FTD ahead of Olly Jefferies and Ben Cosgrove, two of his main championship rivals. The first final saw Chris ease away from Olly in the early stages, Olly stayed consistent but just lacked that little extra pace to challenge Chris, Chris went on to take leg from Olly and Ben. Leg two and real hard fought race, Ben came through from second as Chris half spun early in the race unfortunately collecting Olly and allowing the chasing pack through, Chris got back up too second but Ben took the leg two win. A win for Chris in leg three was enough to take the overall win and in doing so secure another National title.
