Tamiya Tourers: Brown Takes Victory After Lap 9 Change
What a brilliant display of Tamiya Tourer racing we've just witnessed here at Sevenoaks Model Car Club! Damian Brown has taken the win, but he had to work for it. He started from third on the grid and was locked in a battle for much of the early race. It wasn't until lap 9 that Damian made his decisive move, taking the lead from Jack Brown and then holding it all the way to the checkered flag. Damian's consistency in the second half of the race was outstanding, pulling away from the pack and finishing with a comfortable margin.
Tim Webb put in a strong performance to secure second place. He was running in fourth initially but climbed through the field, eventually settling into second place behind Damian by lap 3, a position he maintained for the remainder of the race. Jimmy Zepp fought hard and was running in the lead pack for the first eight laps, holding second and third for a significant portion. However, he couldn't quite match the pace of the leaders in the later stages and ultimately finished third, completing 27 laps.
Jack Brown led the early laps, starting from pole position and holding the advantage for the first eight. Unfortunately, a slight loss of pace saw him drop back, and he ultimately finished in fourth place on 26 laps. Martin Timms and Oscar Pay rounded out the top six, with Donna Belton-Timms also competing. Damian Brown not only took the win but also set the fastest lap of the race with an impressive 10.51 seconds!
