Team Championship

It was a close finish at Spa for the team event with Brain Fade Racing just pipping GWR to the number one spot. It was also very tight for 3rd position with Two Oceans Racing managing to fend off the challenge from Ton-Shi Timu by only two race points. Both Ton-Shi Timu (4th) & Bulldog Racing (5th) recorded their best team's finish of the season so far.

Some teams had technical problems whilst others were only able to field 2 drivers instead of their usual 3, credit must be given to the team drivers who drove in this event which enabled their team to gain some very valuable points for their team's championship aspirations-no doubt the team managers will be pleased with this effort.

Overall Standings:

At the halfway stage of the season Brain Fade Racing are looking very strong at the moment 12 points clear of GWR who are only 2.5 points ahead of Two Oceans Racing. Flink Pink Autowerks retain 4th but only 1 point clear of Team7 Oldies. Motley Crew remain 6th,with equipe BOUS in 7th.Team DRI & Bulldog Racing share 8th spot while Ton-Shi Timu make their first points scoring appearance in 10th position ahead of T.O.F.F.'s.


Interlagos-Brasil is the next TWF1 venue, lets hope for no technical difficulties this time and all teams up to full compliment.
