Tim Wood crowned BRCA 1/8th IC Track Champion
The final round of the British IC Track Championship took place at the Cotswold circuit in central UK. Saturday Morning was damp, so cars hit the circuit for practice in the afternoon only. Noticeable quick cars were Green, Wood, Spashett, and Hastings. Sunday saw a fully dry track from the start. Four rounds of qualifying saw Mark Green take a superb TQ, but the title contenders lined up 2nd Spashett and 4th Wood. The start of the A-final saw a Green get away swiftly, with the title protagonists battling hard for 2nd. A close exciting race saw Wood’s Serpent hounding Spashett’s ARC and at the second round of pit stops, Tim’s mechanic Nicola performed the undercut – with a pitstop one lap early. This allowed Tim to squeeze past Dave into an exciting turn 1. After 30 minutes, the race result was declared as 1st Tim Wood, winning the 2017 British Championship from runner-up, Dave Spashett.
