Harper Wins BRCA Rd2 with Mi6...

This last weekend saw the BRCA Nationals head to Adur near Brighton on the south coast of England. Unusually for the UK we were blessed with great sunshine all weekend and with low winds the track conditions were quite different to the previous weekends Schumacher BTCC race.

The Schumacher Mi6 and Elliott Harper were in a different league this weekend TQing the first 3 rounds of qualifying just using 1 set of 3 allocated sets of Sorex 32RY tyres. Colin Price and his Mi6 were also showing strongly lining up in the top half of the A main,

In Pro Stock James Hart was taking the fight to current BRCA champ Zak Finlay putting in some strong performances to line up second on the grid with Lee's brother Colin also lining up in the top half of the field.

With his two new sets of tyres to use in the finals Elliott dominated all three legs winning with ease ahead of Chris Grainger and Matt White. Colin Price had a battling set of finals with some excellent drives ended up 4th overall.

In Pro Stock James kept Zak honest in all three legs but could quite do enough but ended up a good second behind the current champ. Lee Price, like his brother drove some excellent finals and finished 4th overall.

The drivers had been working hard on the set up of the new Mi6 platform over the last few weeks and the hard work was showing up with the performances at this race.
