Time Attack 2008 Round 3 - Silverstone

Round 3 of Time Attack at Silverstone, grey, overcast but no rain and perfect conditions for some very quick times to be set

Pro Class
The pro class was won by Olly Clark in the Roger Clark Motorsport Impreza with an amazing time of 58.877, nearly 3 seconds faster than the previous lap record on the track and faster than the BTCC lap record!
Second was Steve Guglielmi in the Guglielmi Motorsport Lotus Elise, with 58.911

Third was Tom Ferrier in the ZEN Performance Impreza with a 59.068

Legendary Japanese Time Attack driver Tarzan Yamada came over especially for the event and drove the RK Tuning R32 GTR

Ross Juniper in the Dragon Performance Mazda RX7, still on a development curve, but will be one to watch soon

Back after its Donington crash was Gary Hayward in the APT Evo 7

Reshelled since Round 1 following a crash at Castle Combe was Simon Norris in the Norris Designs Evo 9, Tarzan Yamada also drove this car during the day
