Default Well done to AG Motorsport P1 in TA qualifying

I was starting to think the Renshaw Evo was untouchable but Andy has beaten him round Brands with a 48.158 ! Seriously rapid

True, but my point is a 48 from Gavin just on 2 laps in pretty impressive

Definitely, Andy I think just got faster and faster so there is still a good chance the Evo can go quicker. Shame the SVA car is out

Was watching it, the Focus just suddenly started getting quicker and quikcer. The Skyline was rpaid and looked faster on track TBH, but it was about a second behind after a couple of hot laps.

Andy went in then and the Skyline recorded a quikcer lap that was about 0.7 of a second behind.

That Evo was silly quick, too! Came out, did one hot lap and placed second by the end!

The Club Pro Class finals are just about to start now, follow the timing here:
http://livetiming.tsl-timing.com/133970

The Pro Class should be in about 30 mins.

The fact that this car was built years ago and Andy hasn't done any circuit racing for years is testament to the man and the machine.

Hmmmmm I know they where fixing an issue with the alternator belt pulley, but i thought they might just run the session on battery if they where not able to fix it.

lets see what the news from the pits is.

This is unconfirmed but "Apparently he got a 45.2 but went out in wrong race and no one stopped him or black flagged him."

The session before the Pro class was Club Pro which could be misheard. But surely the officials should have done something, or not even allowed his our on track.

Carlo looks like they didn't want Andrew in the final suited them not to black flag him then blame him for going out in wrong class.

its a bit of an over reaction to completely ban him, its not as if it was deliberate to gain an advantage.

does seen that it was any excuse to get him out after them fighting to be allowed to enter in the first place.

Seems pretty unlikely TBH.
Even if he did monster every other car there, he wouldn't have affected anyone's championship results as he hasn't done any other rounds?

How does the qualifying work with the finals ? The SVA car didn't make qualifying but did make the final ?

He had no advantage going out in the wrong class why not just flag him in and tell him he was in wrong class run in the next class.
