Bug Jam 22 Results

Submitted by VWDRC on Wed, 23/07/2008 - 09:52.

Well we're back from an absolutely mental weekend at Bug Jam 22, absolutely awesome racing this weekend and the top 8 in Sportsman qualifying were separated by only 0.1 seconds!

Here's the racing results anyway, well done guys!

James Hodson

Winner: James Hodson

Phil Norman

Runner Up: Phil Norman

VW Pro

James Hodson took victory in his mentalist Mk2 Golf, driving it to the track, running dead on his 10.60 dial-in all weekend, collecting his trophy and driving it home!

A special mention must go to runner up Phil Norman who had terrible problems leading up to the event which culminated in a hasty gearbox rebuild in the pits on Friday night into Saturday morning!




Stuart Hinds

Winner: Stuart Hinds

Rich Merriman

Runner Up: Rich 'Steve' Merriman

VW Sportsman

Stuart 'Tick Tock' Hinds proved that after some time off with his family he's well and truly back in VW Sportsman with a masterful display in his Corrado!

Rich Merriman couldn't quite get his Beetle finished for Pro so borrowed his girlfriend Claire's Polo for Sportsman, and boy is he glad he did taking second place in his first event for a while. We're looking forward to seeing the Bug Rich, but with performances like that maybe sticking the Polo is a good idea!?

Scott Evison

Winner: Scott Evison

Matt Attwood

Runner Up: Matt Attwood

VW Alternate Engine



It was close in Alternate Engine too, with excellent performances from Ian Huggan, after a small mishap with a massive wheelstand pulling the oil filter clean from the block he still managed to fix it and get back on the track!

Eventually it was Scott Evison's Subaru powered car that won out over Matt Attwoods skyward airplane fastback.




Abi Tether

Voted By the Racers and with so many cool people in the club this is always a hotly contested prize, with a number of especially cool things going on at Bug Jam this weekend was especially close! When all the votes were in and counted up the eventual winner was Abi Tether in the Sambasaurus, well done on the 16!

Congratulations to all the racers in all the classes. What a fab weekend!
