Fletcher wins BRCA 1/8th Rd5 as Lee claims title
As we reported earlier, last weekend saw the 5th and final round of the BRCA 1/8th onroad championships held at the super-fast and popular Cotswolds circuit. Saturday practice in the EP class saw Billy Fletcher (Capricorn) leading the way followed by Mikey Mansell (Capricorn) and Michael Lee (Xray). When Sunday qualifying got under way all 3 drivers pushed harder than ever to take that extra all important TQ point for the championship. After 4 rounds Billy Fletcher would take TQ with Mikey Mansell trailing him by just under a second with Michael Lee in 3rd. Peter Vater (Xray), Jamie Paton (Capricorn) and Luke Drinan (Capricorn) joined them in the A final. The finals got underway and after some really close and hard racing in both legs Billy Fletcher took the win followed by his team mate Mikey Mansell with Michael Lee claiming 3rd right on Mikey’s rear end. These final results saw Michael Lee clinch the championship with Billy Fletcher in second on equal points, Michael taking it on count back. Mikey rounded out the championship podium with 3rd place.
Thanks to Michael Walton for the report.
