Default Associated dominate at Southport National

Round four of the 2009 BRCA 10th off road National Championship series was held over the weekend of 18-19th July at the popular Southport buggy track.



After a domination by XFactory drivers during the 2WD series thus far - it was looking a similar story with XFactory cars taking the first couple of qualifiers in the hands of Phil Sleigh and Mark Stanley respectively. Round three saw Neil Craggs Associated B4 on top and to make it four different drivers from four, Danny McGee put his Losi/Atomic Carbon hybrid CR2 in the top spot.

Despite some great pressure especially from Mark Stanley, Neil Cragg dominated the finals - winning all three legs to take his first 2WD National of the season.

Reigning 4WD champion for the previous two years, Lee Martin, went out meaning business in the wet early morning of the 4WD event - taking the first three rounds of qualifying before Neil Cragg took the final round.
Like Neil had done in 2WD - Lee Martin took all three legs to take the victory after some intense and exciting racing.

Photo galleries to follow tomorrow
