Andy Moore wins Winter BTCC Rd1

This last weekend saw the first running of Schumacher’s new Winter BTCC at Ardent Raceway.  The entry was quite low with about 50 drivers however the competition was seriously hot. The UK’s top drivers Andy Moore, Elliott Harper and Schumacher’s Chris Grainger all battled it out hard in the 10.5 class with Elliott and Andy putting on a great show and these two being a few seconds clear of the chasing pack on the Sorex 28JB control tyres. Andy took the TQ from Elliott with Stefan Chodzynski in third and Chris 4th.  A huge battle in both finals entertained the crowd with the top 2 places changing at various points in the races.  Eventually after a great battle Andy came out on top from Elliott with Stefan 3rd and Chris Grainger 4th. In the slightly slower 13.5T class track owner John Dawson was the man to beat (he gets some practice) ;) however Hinckley legend Dean Gibbs was close around with Schumacher Matt Lax showing strongly too with his Mi4CX. John finished up the clear winner from Dean and Matt.
