Due to a couple of bobbles here and there on a very demanding track and a couple of back marker problems, secured second place for the final.\u00a0Elliot was using the new\u00a0super fast <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/rx8.html\">Tekin RX8 Gen 2<\/a> Electronic Speed Controller and a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teamtekin.com\/t8.html\">1900 kv Tekin T8 Gen2<\/a> motor which ran all weekend with super power and nice power delivery and was able to compete in a 12 minute final very easily with plenty of power in reserve.<\/p>\n<p>Elliott was on second row of the grid for the main 12 minute A Final in which he made a fantastic start and was able to take the lead very quickly from Lee Martin. Elliott then put in some outstanding laps and was able to give himself a nice gap from second place and the rest of the pack. He was able to back off his pace a little to save using all his power up as it was a large track and we wanted to make sure we finished the race, which he was able to do comfortably and take his first BRCA Championship win of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Next round is in Coventry in April.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National campaign last weekend with glorious weather and a hard packed track with lots of grip for the first round of the BRCA Electric 1:8 National Championship.
