| Greystoke Stages - 10 July
Club
member Daniel O'Brien won the West Cumbria Motorsport Club Greystoke
Stages on Sunday 10 July. With Andy Marchbank reading the notes, the
pair took their Ford Focus WRC to secure first place ahead of second
seed Richard and Edwin Cook's Subaru Impreza by a mere 12 seconds. The
Cook Subaru took an early lead of 5 seconds in the first stage but over
the next 3 stages O'Brien clawed it all back to all square. The next
two stages saw O'Brien pull a significant lead of 14 seconds, giving a
lead that, even with the loss of 2 seconds on the last stage, meant
they were top of the podium. Well done to the crew, and flying the HBCC
flag. | |
