Lee Martin sealed up a near perfect start to the 2010 BRCA 1/10th off road national series with a second day of outstanding racing giving him TQ and win in all three legs of the A final to go along with his 2WD win the previous day.

Tamiya TRF driver Lee Martin moved from Associated earlier this year and is the only sponsored Tamiya TRF off road driver in the UK, but if the results are anything to go by - it won't be long before we start seeing more Tamiyas in use at national events.

Full race report / photo gallery and videos coming soon.

Some patience is going to be needed here, multiple cameras worth of footage is going to take some editing.

It'll be zef.

Must be something to do with that superman badge on the front...!! I don't see the use of special powers being banned or mentioned in the BRCA Handbook :confused::lol:

Patience with the vids/report guys.
I think there were 4 video cameras plus 2 stills cameras being used, Jimmy may be a warrior but he's not a god like Tom Cock.

I so wanted to call him Tomcock on the mic, but was advised it might not be good with kids around!!!

Dear Lee (hope you don't mind me calling you Lee? ;) )

congrats from JoeSchmoe in Switzerland for a superb win with a not-yet-released car, ie with little Factory support .

It's been more than two decades since we started waiting for Tamiya to come back to us with a proper 2wd... Keep it up :thumbsup: I'll look at my two Dynastorms and my Astute with tears in my eyes tonight :woot:

Great weekend from start to finish. Excellent commentry in qualifiers aswell, not as much daft banter as last year that was a bit off putting when you were on a good run but superb this year:thumbsup:

Weather was very kind to us aswell.

Good company, and a few cheeky bevvies aswell!

Great to watch the likes of Lee and co. getting it done as only they can do. Well done for the wins:thumbsup:

Just uploading at the moment - might polish it slightly and of course add the galleries. 2WD is done but I need to finish 4WD before uploading them. I take too many photos so it's a pain to go thru them :lol: Made a few new shortcuts in photoshop to try speed things up though so won't be long honest.
