Paul Carr Takes Double Victory at Rowrah S1

The S1 circus travelled to the undulating Rowrah circuit for the 3rd round of the Super 1 championships, a venue difficult to master for both drivers and teams, which gives opportunity for the Paul Carr Racing expertise to shine.

 

Lucas Orrock's total dominance of the Rotax max 177 class continued unabated. True to form, Lucas took pole position and victory in all his heats. He then followed this up with victory in both finals by considerable margins.

 

 

In the Senior Max class Charlie Eastwood was in the wars and found himself in the B final with a badly damaged kart. Despite this handicap Charlie qualified to the back of the A final and stormed through to a creditable 6th place. Carrying a wrist injury and a damaged kart, Charlie can be proud of an incredible showing.

 

Tom Oliphant looked good for two top 10 finishes and was only robbed of this in final 2 when mechanical problems struck. Tom should be proud of his strongest showing this year.

 

In Juniors Stefan Locsmandi showed very promising pace despite his weight disadvantage, unfortunately a lot of bad luck meant his pace couldn't be converted into a result.

 

 

Rob Holland again showed excellent pace to recover from the back of the grid after DNF in final 1, passing 20 of the country's best junior drivers to finish seventh.

 

 

 

 

Paul Carr Racing Supreme in German Euro Max

 

The Paul Carr Racing Team rolled into the Wackersdorf facility in Germany for round 2 of the Euro Max Challenge, carrying great expectations after an incredible showing in Belgium. The outfit would not disappoint!

 

Ukyo Dominates Again

 

The combination of Ukyo Sasahara and the Paul Carr Racing Team is proving to be not only dominant, but vastly superior in the Euro Max Challenge.

 

 

After being unlucky to be in the rain affected half of the qualifying sessions Ukyo Sasahara still managed to dominate his heats and started the pre-final from pole position. A considerable achievement after qualifying in 25th.

 

Predictably Ukyo drove away from the pack and won both finals with over 3 seconds in hand by the end of the grand final.

 

Morin Narrowly Misses Podium

 

Philip Morin was close to joining his Paul Carr team mate on the podium until the last moment of the final when a slight error allowed his opponent passed.

 

Philip's 4th place position is a great achievement at the highest level and Philip looks forward to the championship heading closer to his home in Sweden for the next round in Denmark.

 

Matt Solomon Strong Again

 

 

For a relatively inexperienced driver, Matt Solomon has shown incredible performance to show so well in the toughest Rotax competition on offer. In Wackersdorf Matt came home in 10th position, a great result and in sight of the lead pack!

 

Stefan Locsmandi Podium Within Grasp

 

New boy Stefan Locsmandi looked to cement Paul Carr Racing's dominance of the meeting when running in 2nd position in the grand final, but misfortune struck and contact forced Stefan down to 12th position by the end. Qualifying 6th with a heat win, and making his way to 2nd shows that Stefan has the pace to land big results.

 

Injured Eastwood Shows Pace

 

Charlie Eastwood suffered a broken wrist at the previous weekend's racing yet was still able to show promise with his pace. Unfortunately the weekend didn't come together for Charlie and so his results didn't reflect his potential, but after some recovery time Charlie hopes to return to the track with a bang.

 

 

 

Succesful Super 1 for Bruce White, Harrison and Campbell-Mills

The Paul Carr Racing Team was split in two this weekend, with the Rotax squad heading north to the Rowrah circuit in the Lake District whilst the TKM racing team travelled to our closest track at Shenington for the second round of the Super 1  series.

 

There was plenty of success for the TKM team using the Tony Kart Viper chassis and Paul Carr prepared motors, with Extreme pilot  Charlie Bruce-White taking a win in one of the finals, along with Junior Lee Harrison recording his first trip to the podium by taking third in the second final along with a fifth in final one.
