Kyle Branson wins at British Open GP

Round 4 of the BRCA IC Track National Championship was held at the Brookline track and was held as the British Open GP together with the 1/10th 200mm GP class. The latter saw Alex Thurston taking the overall TQ honours after winning Q1 and Q2. In the final Alex had a clean start with him, Kyle Branson and Mark Green having a great race up front until a marshall put a back marker back on the track just before the straight meaning that Alex would come along and smash into him flat out. The crash crushed his car’s body, broke his bumper and damaged a front shock and the following pitstop meant that he was out of the equation for the win. Alex lost a good amount of laps, however with a borrowed shock from a retired teammate he was able to at least score a 3rd place finish to snatch valuable points as Mark Green came in 2nd and Kyle Branson took the win.
