An amazing result from Ellis Stafford after only his third time out with the x11. Ellis was absolutely flying (not literally) last Sunday at EPR’s Winter Warmer Meeting. This was despite severe weather conditions which was a disadvantage to the cars and marshals!! The track was extremely slippery, wet and greasy!
Racing was postponed as the weather was so bad but finally a couple of hours later it eased up allowing the racing to begin! Ellis went on to TQ round one, with super fast and consistent lap times. It seemed there was no catching him. Round two – didn’t go so well as the car went off the side of the table top ramp and hit a concrete track marking. This caused very little damage – just a broken ball joint. Proving the car’s strength. Round three – the weather wasn’t as good as the previous rounds making for a more slippery track. However Ellis put the car back in it’s place. He was on for a 15 lapper but due to a small mistake that cost him 5 seconds he just missed out. To summarise the qualifying, Ellis TQ’ed the meeting! In the finals Ellis changed the car slightly – this was to experiment and help him to learn more about the car. Ellis went on to win the A Final! We were all very pleased with this result as Sunday was used as a ‘test’ and ‘experimental’ day. The x11 glided over the bumpy sections and handled well around the challenging track. Our under 16 driver Ashton Armstrong also drove well and consistently – despite track conditions. Ashton who has only started racing in January 2009 has noticeably improved with help and advice from the Team. Ashton managed 6th in the B Final! WELL DONE GUYS – keep up the good work! YANINA X
