Wow! And just like that. Our season of racing in the BRSCC AUDI TTCR SERIES has come to an end.
Snetterton was the setting for our final race weekend in the Audi’s and it gave us plenty to think about across the 4 days we spent in Norfolk.
Practice on the Thursday was solid rain from morning until dusk. Saturday for Quali & Race 1 was damp but slippery. And Sunday for Race 2 & Race 3 was a sunny fine day. It certainly kept us on our toes with regards to driving conditions!
We came away from the weekend having enjoyed our last event – and with a sense of achievement having maintained a 100% finish rate in every race across the entire season. Reliability has been superb yet again this season, and we are very pleased to have finished every single race this year which is no mean feat in tin top racing.
A new Personal Best lap time was set on the Sunday in the dry conditions, managing a 2:17. We have really enjoyed getting to grips with the Audi this season and learning how to get the most out of it.
For now, it is time to reflect back on the highs & lows of the season in this single make series; it was a real challenge for us as a team stepping into a highly competitive race paddock filled with very experienced teams & drivers. With our reliable finishes we finished out the season in the top-10 in class, feeling pleased with how we’d done in our first season. The standard of racing was very high indeed.
We’ve learned a lot as a team, and gained some excellent experience. The highlight of the year was probably the opening round. Lining up on the start-line at our home circuit Brands Hatch, on a packed grid of single-make racing cars for the first time. The grid looked epic and it was a proud moment to be part of that.
2023 still yet holds more track action for us – with a couple more visits trackdays still to go! But then in December it will be time to take a winter break and asses our options for racing next year in 2024.
Thank you as always to our fantastic sponsors for their ongoing support, enabling us to go racing.
