Seb Perez brought home the win as the newly crowned BHRC drivers champion at Rally Anglo Caledonian in tricky conditions at the weekend.
In a shortened event mainly due to the weather, no one ever said this would be easy. Unbelievable conditions this afternoon over the first two stages and thrown up an interesting leaderboard.
Henderson/Atkins led the way but it’s mighty close as always. After an earlier time correction and a sensational stage time over Buck Fell, Seb Perez blasts into the lead and the leaderboard turns on its head in the very difficult conditions.
He opened up a 51 second gap over his closet rivals Thompson and Davidson. With two points scoring opportunities available this weekend a sensational run from Seb Perez and co-driver Dale Bowen netted them a maximum score today on Saturdays event.
Paul Thompson and Josh Davison took second with David Henderson and Will Atkins in third.
With the clocks reset everything was up grabs again on Sunday. Matt Robinson gets the hammer down early on to set scratch time over the first stage of the day.
Perez pulls a blinder over the first loop to lead but Hetherington (who had to retie on Day 1 ) was back out and giving chase.
Perez suffers gear stick issues and despite Hetherington’s earlier puncture he closes the gap to just 12s with two to go.
At the end Seb Perez kept his cool to take the double at the Caledonian Rally to top off a memorable year for the 911.
Adrian Hetherington and Ronan O’Neill took second with Rudi Lancaster and Guy Weaver completing the podium places on Day 2.
