The final race meeting will take place at Silverstone race
track from the 21st to the 22nd September with the
contenders battling it out to be named Porsche club champion 2012 on the full
GP circuit. Nothing is certain for this meeting, with Mark Sumpter (current
reigning champion) unable to attend this meeting who knows just what might
happen., the door has been left wide open for others to leap-frog his lead on the points table.
Hartech have great hopes for Marcus and Ben with Ben already
having one win under his belt from brands and Marcus holding his place quite
consistently always getting excellent qualifying and lap times. Ben is currently
4th in class (212 pts net) and Marcus
is 6th in class (179 pts net) but with Sumpter
not attending both drivers should better his points if they finish all 3
races. Hopefully Ben will make it on to the 2012 championship podium and
Marcus will achieve his aims to be at least 5th as well as to get a podium
finish in at least one of the races.
The racing is spread over the two days. Qualifying is at 11.20 on Friday morning and the first of
the three races is at 15.25 that afternoon. Saturday’s two races are at 09.35
and 13.20.
Currently it looks like we
will be in luck with the weather the forecast being dry and cloudy which would
make the racing just that little bit easier for everyone drivers, mechanics, reporters
and spectators alike.
Along with our two days of
racing will be the Britcar 24hr race. Marcus actually has experience in the
Britcar races after having previously driven a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car in the 2009 Britcar 500
event and he may (depending on available
places) enter next weekend’s race.
