Josh Cook, British Touring Car Driver, guests in Formula Blue at Mansell Raceway

Posted on by Julie

Josh Cook, leading M.G. driver in the British Touring Car Championship, guest drives in Formula Blue at the penultimate Branfield & Sons sponsored, 2 Counties Championship round, at Mansell raceway, Devon,  on Oct 30th.

Having won the first heat, Cook qualified 7th on the grid for the Final despite having suffered a DNF in heat 3 with a “noisy”  broken exhaust manifold.  Unfortunately, he had insufficient time to “bed” in the gasket on the replacement part prior to the Final. Despite reaching 4th after the opening lap,  he was forced to retire the following lap, as the noise became exessive, he was given a black flag and waved into the pits by the Clerk of Course.   Meanwhile, it was Anthony Cleal and Duncan McLeod who shared the day at the penultimate round of the Club Championship.  It is Cleal, however, who forges ahead in the overall lead, helped by the absence of Martin Wheeler, his previous main rival for the Championship.  It is McLeod who now takes on the mantle !

Positions in the Club Championship for the Blue Masters group remain unchanged with Cleal ahead of McLeod and Kevin Ford.

Minimum points for McLeod allow him to reinforce his lead in the Blue Veteran section with Ford and David Goode next in line.
Goode and Ron Shone shared the points in the Blue Legend sub-class, although it is Goode who leads Shone with Kevin O’Neill chasing in 3rd place.

Cleal also heads the Blue Top Weight class, followed by McLeod. 3rd place is held by Duncan McLeod’s son Mitch, keeping it in the family.

In the Cadet Honda class a clean sweet on the day left Cameron Ross clear in the lead. Zak Styler, although 2nd on the day remains 3rd overall.

The Branfield & Sons sponsored 2 Counties Championship now moves to Clay Pigeon, in Dorset, on 13th November for the Final Round.
In with this round is also the Matthew Percy Memorial race, one of the most coveted trophy events in the Junior & Formula Blue calendar.

Wheeler closes down on Cleal in 2 Counties Club Champs

Posted on by Julie

At the 4th round of the 2 Counties Club Champs (sponsored by Branfield & Sons Builders)  at the Clay Pigeon circuit,  on October 9th,  the lead in the Cadet Honda class continues in a deadlock.  Thomas Cucurello-Yeomans and Cameron Ross shared the days’ points and carry the Championship forward in total deadlock with only 2 Rounds left.
Jake Calvert continued his dominance in Junior Blue, with a lights to flag result.
In Formula Blue,  Martin Wheeler and Anthony Cleal raced the Final centimetres apart.  Wheeler, won the race though Cleal achieved the fastest lap.  In the process,  Wheeler,  closed the gap on Cleal at the front of the Club Championship  to where only the drop option separates them.  Notable absentees were Ian Branfield and Matthew Helps who gifted 3rd spot to Sam Dible in the process.
In the Blue Master section,  Cleal takes the overall lead from Duncan McLeod.
It is, however, McLeod who holds the lead in the Blue Veteran group ahead of Kevin Ford.
In the Blue Legend sub-class,  David Goode continues to hold the lead over Ron Shone.
Branfield’s absence from the Blue Top Weight group has allowed McLeod to take up second spot to chase Cleal, in the lead.
The Championship continues and moves on to the Mansell circuit on October 30th for the penultimate round of the year.
