HEATON TURNS UP THE HEAT IN CATERHAM GRADUATES

-

An urge to get racing again after the delayed season start was the catalyst for Henry Heaton to take all three wins in the Caterham Graduates.

Hiring a Sigma 150-class car from CTS Motorsport for his series debut, Heaton’s only drama came from gearbox worries in the final race which forced him to nurse the car home.

Recovering from mechanical woes made Danny Harrison’s maiden Britcar win even sweeter. After a turbo issue in his Praga R1T put him a lap down in the opener he stormed to victory in race two, finishing more than a minute ahead of team-mates Jack Fabby and Garry Townsend.

Sy Harraway had a ‘barnstorme­r’ of a weekend as he battled a misfire to win a heat and both Legends Championsh­ip finals.

The second final success was a sprint to the line with Jack Parker that he edged by 0.078 seconds.

Two wins for Lewis Saunders kept his 100% start to the Junior Saloons season alive despite both races being disrupted to recover cars from the

Clervaux gravel trap.
