The day itself was full of passion, emotion and tears, but it turned out to exceed even our highest expectations!

We started the day in fine form and put in some superb lap times before disaster struck mid-way through the qualifying rounds when the weather took a turn for the worst. The wet conditions proved difficult for the race car and Andy was helpless as the heavy rain caused the car to spin off and clip one of the track’s large tyre walls. To make matters worse, Nick in the Voodoo car clipped one of the curbs on the track which caused the car to completely cut out after turning on the engine’s emergency assistance.  Ben's car ran faultlessly up until the turn in the weather, it was the only the wet conditions that caused Ben to tail off later on in the day. AET technicians, Elliot and Callum, persevered and their forward thinking allowed them to quickly repair the minor damages caused to our Fiesta vehicles, allowing our drivers to continue to do what they do best…

All three of our AET representative drivers eventually came through the day unscathed, setting impressive lap times in qualifying before finishing 1st, 2nd and 8^th respectively in the final Time Attack Championship heat.
