2026 Summer Championship - Round 4: Short Course Truck Race 1 Recap
James Campbell takes a dominant victory in the first Short Course Truck race of the Summer Championship! From the moment the flag dropped, Campbell was in a class of his own, leading every single lap of the race. He set a blistering fastest lap of 16.44 seconds, a pace that no other competitor could match throughout the 14 laps. Campbell crossed the line with a commanding margin, solidifying his position at the top.
The fight for the remaining podium places was where the real action unfolded. Keith Griggs secured a strong second place, completing 12 laps. He maintained a consistent position throughout the race, fending off challenges to bring his truck home ahead of the rest. Andrew Boakes put in a determined drive to snatch third, completing 10 laps. Boakes was running fourth early on but made a decisive move to third position by lap three and held it to the finish, ultimately finishing just ahead of Damian McLean.
Damian McLean showed flashes of speed, completing seven laps. He ran in third place for the opening laps but was eventually overtaken. Despite not finishing on the podium, McLean’s pace on some laps demonstrated his potential. A fantastic drive from James Campbell, and a solid performance from the rest of the field here at Sevenoaks Model Car Club!
