Tony Hughes achieves career best finish at Ginetta G50 Cup

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009
Winner!

Winner!

Last weekend saw a fantastic set of results for Speedworks Motorsport – trophies and a best ever finish for Tony Hughes at Rockingham, qualifying in 12th place.

Race 1 on Saturday afternoon saw the team field 3 of it’s regular cars, Tony having a great battle to finish in 11th position.

Sunday morning saw bright sunshine and two more races to run. The start of Race 2 was a rather torrid affair with a spinner at the second corner taking out 4 cars, but the race settled down and saw Tony have his best ever finish in 6th place. He  took his maiden podium to win the Chairmans Cup category and achieve fastest lap in the class!

Race 3 saw another corner collision which saw Tony take the unfortunate turn of collecting the spinning car but even this could not dampen his sprits as Speedworks brought home 4 trophies, with 3 class wins and a 3rd overall.
