POWERED
BY JAGUAR CHAMPIONSHIP combined with SPORTS CAR V SALOON CHALLENGE
Due to low entries the PBJ
and Sports car V Salooon challenge were run together. This made it more
interesting for the spectators but more difficult for me with all the pictures
etc. Still never mind!
Graham Booth in the Caterham
made a good start from 2nd on the grid & never looked back! This left
Ian Fletcher, Steve Davis & Kevin Doyle to battle for 2nd place. More
importantly Steve & Kevin were also fighting for the championship. The
trio stayed in this order until lap 10 when Steve retired from the race
with a faulty clutch. At the same time Ians lap times rose by 3 seconds
a lap until he eventually retired on lap 17. Kevin Doyle had secured the
championship! (This paragraph has been corrected regarding
Steve's retirement).
Lap 9 Ian Fletchers yellow Hornet running in second
ahead of Steve Davis and Kevin Doyle
Folllowing his earlier accident
during qualifying, Simon Seath was on a charge, and eventualy made it past
Chris Palmer to finish 6th in the race and 4th out of the PBJ drivers.
Lawrence Coppock also had a
good race, but could not match the pace of 3rd place Bob Lines and had to
settle for 4th.
Stephen Bantleman's XJS sustained
considerable damage & a DNF following an incident with one of the Sports
car V Salooon car drivers at the hairpin.
Congratulations to Kevin Doyle
for winning the 2006 PBJ championship. Not everything went to plan throughout
the season for Kevin, including two blown head gaskets and a black &
white flag incident. Better luck next year Steve!

GOSSIP
Although the PBJ season is
at an end, Steve Davis will be out in his XJS with the Heritage Grand Touring
Car Challenge on the 23rd/24th of September at Brands Hatch. Fellow PBJ
racer Kevin Doyle will be out in his Ex TWR Mazda RX7. Other JEC drivers
that have competed, and may be there are William Lynch and Richard Masters.
Richard retired from the last race at Brands Hatch following a spin and
collision at Paddock.
The HGTCC race is one of many
support races for rounds 26, 27, & 28 of the British Touring Car Championship
BTCC. Should be a fun packed weekend. If I'm not sunning myself in Greece
at this time, I will be there with the camera!
