The Tamiya Tourers delivered a gripping encounter tonight at Sevenoaks Model Car Club as part of the 2026 Summer Championship! It was Jack Brown who ultimately took the chequered flag, but he had to work hard for it. Chris Playfoot, starting from second, briefly took the lead on lap two before Jack fought back on lap three. The lead then swapped hands again on lap four, with Chris reclaiming P1, only for Jack to make a decisive move on lap nine to grab the lead for good. Jack's consistency in the latter half of the race, holding the lead from lap nine onwards, saw him complete 16 laps and secure a well-deserved victory.
Chris Playfoot finished a commendable second, completing 15 laps. He held the lead for a significant portion of the early to mid-race, but the intense battle with Jack meant he couldn't quite match Jack's pace in the final laps, finishing 5.01 seconds behind on lap 15. Ian Foxwell, also on 15 laps, secured third place. He ran a consistent race, holding third position from lap 2 onwards, and finished just under five seconds behind Chris.
Further down the order, Martin Timms brought his car home in fourth on 15 laps, while Oscar Pay, despite a strong fastest lap of 14.83s, ran a shorter race, completing 13 laps to finish fifth. Donna Belton-Timms, unfortunately, had a tougher outing, completing nine laps. Jack Brown also set the fastest lap of the entire race with an impressive 14.800s effort. A fantastic night of racing from all our Tamiya Tourer drivers!
