Wow what a day,what an event, Brands Hatch was the venue for the final of Time Attack and a great event it was, with all 3 championships going to the wire and being decided today. An extra big update was needed to cover it allPro Class
There had to be a winner and today it was Phil Glew in the Zen Perfomance Subaru Impreza WRX RA,who set a 49.771 second lap which won the Pro Class and the Pro Class Championship overall
Second was Steve Gugliemi in the Gugliemi Motorsport Lotus Elise with a 50.967 lap
Third was Clive Seddon in the RC Developments Mitsubshi Lancer Evo 6 with a 51.113 lap, this car had the highest overall speed on the day, with 155mph, which for the Brands Hatch Indy circuit is very fast
Having a go today was Mark Luney in the SVA Imports Nissan 350Z drift car,if the 2 way differential had been swopped for a 1.5 or 1 way the car would have been in the Top 10.....
Apart from Gugliemi in the Elise,the only other non-Japanese car in the Pro Class has been Dan Lewis,better known as Renton in the Redline Magazine Ford Sierra Cosworth with a 4x4 conversion
Martin Greens RC Developments Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 5 - a nice car but a photographic nightmare

Also trying out in the pro class was Martin Hadland in the Reyland Ford Escort Cosworth,which may be seen full time next year
Apart from Ireland, the only overseas entrant in 2007 was 'Trackday' John Terzidis from Greece in the Auto Ergonomics Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 8Club Class
Todays winner and winning the club class forced induction championship was Kev Atkins in the MA Developments Evo 6 with a quite amazing 52.914 lap,which would have been quick enough for 9th in the Pro Class final
