Academy Motorsport driver Sean Huyton won both Ginetta Challenge races at Snetterton last weekend despite qualifying outside the top ten for both events at the Norfolk circuit’s new ‘300’ lay out.
Mark Davies and Sean Huyton shared the wins in the opening round of the Ginetta Challenge at Oulton Park over the Easter weekend, while Gary Simms picked up a pair of victories in the G20 class.
Rick Parfitt Jr, son of the Status Quo rockstar of the same name, will make his full-time racing debut in the Ginetta Challenge this season in one of the Yorkshire-based manufacturer’s G40 race cars.
Ginetta Challenge champion George Murrells is planning to step up to the Ginetta G50 Cup in 2011 following a successful first test with front running team Optimum Motorsport.
George Murrells and Dominic Pettit took the victories at Snetterton in three dramatic races in the Ginetta Challenge. Pettit won a re-started opener before Murrells triumphed in race two but on-the-road winner Pettit was excluded from the third race giving victory to Murrells.
