Last weekend saw us back out with the racecarexperiences × Oceanskies team, this time taking the Golf TCR into its very first race event. 🏁
Henry was back behind the wheel, this time sharing the car with Olly Allen — a hugely talented, multi-championship-winning driver. With neither driver having raced the Golf before, there was plenty to learn and a big task ahead.
Both drivers and the car performed brilliantly, at one point running P1 in class and 4th overall. 👊
Then, during Olly’s final stint, the dreaded LOW FUEL PRESSURE warning appeared on the dash. 😬
Despite still having around 60 litres of fuel on board, we reset the electrical system and topped the tank up in an attempt to cure the issue. It briefly improved things, but unfortunately the fault returned.
The priority then became simply getting the car to the chequered flag. Despite the additional time lost in the pits, the team dug deep and brought it home 6th in class.
Considering this was the car’s first race, neither driver had raced it before, and we had an issue to contend with, that’s a result we’re incredibly proud of. 💪
A massive well done to Henry, Olly and every single member of the team. Everyone played their part and the potential of this Golf TCR is already looking very exciting.
Now we head back to Norfolk for the next round at Snetterton Circuit. Bring it on. 🔥🏁
