Great day out, was gutted for him when he left the first race but it was easily enough fixed. The second race he started second last, next time he passed he was 6th, then 3rd, then 1st it was unreal within 3 laps he was first. It was awesome seeing it go. Well done Andy

Something happened with Charlies intercooler (I think) and he couldn't go full pace on the second race.

It was so cool to see the two focus' on track together

Wondered what the problem was - seemed like he was staying off boost for the whole race.

I believe it was either a popped or broken driveshaft as soon as he came off the line!

Andy did a cracking 4 wheel drift comin round the hairpin in the damp conditions in the second race, I hope someone got a shot of it It was unreal watching this weapon throw flames from both sides a it pulled up the straight!!

51.5 how good is that the car is a bit battered & broosed due to him starting at the back of the grid on the 2nd race & managed to catch up pass & win the car was flying.the gap the race leaders on race 2 had on him ws unbeleivable & he managed to get in front nice one mate all that ard work paid off cant wait to see it at the ford shows this year.Shame for charlie he had a few running probs but will hopefully be sorted by the next outing
