Rain, Roars, and Rallycross: Paul Pascoe Shines in the Irish Rallycross Championship!
The Irish Rallycross Championship kicked off in spectacular fashion this past weekend, with over 85 cars battling it out in a thrilling mix of rain showers and sunshine. Spirits remained high despite the unpredictable weather, as passionate fans and drivers alike packed the track for Rounds 1 and 2 of the championship. Among the competitors was our sponsored driver, Paul Pascoe, racing in the highly competitive Super Modified Rallycross class—the largest and most action-packed category of the weekend.
Saturday: Building Momentum
Saturday was all about fine-tuning the car’s set-up, with invaluable support from the BMRT Supercar Rallycross team. Paul and his team worked tirelessly throughout the day, and the effort paid off with significant improvements in performance.
The highlight of the day came with an impressive second-place finish in one of the qualifying heats, showcasing the car’s growing potential. After a hard-fought semi-final, Paul narrowly missed out on a spot in the final, finishing in 5th place and securing a respectable 9th overall for the day.
Sunday: Rising to the Challenge
Sunday saw further adjustments to the car, which proved to be game-changing. Paul began setting blistering lap times, adapting brilliantly to the shifting conditions.
- Heat 1: A solid 5th-place finish set the tone for the day.
- Heat 2: Performance ramped up with a 4th-place finish.
- Heat 3: Starting in 4th, Paul surged into 2nd place and held it to the finish line, a remarkable result in a class packed with talent.
This consistency earned Paul a spot in the semi-final, where a strong 4th-place finish secured his place on the back row of the final.
The Final: A Stormy Showdown
As the rain returned, the track became slick and treacherous for the final race. But Paul wasn’t deterred. Fighting through the pack from the back row, he clawed his way up the standings to finish 7th overall—a tremendous achievement in such a fiercely competitive field.
Engines, Enthusiasm, and Endless Support
Paul’s car drew plenty of attention throughout the weekend, with visitors stopping by the garage to check out the machine that was making waves on the track. It’s clear that the hard work, dedication, and support from sponsors like us are driving Paul and his team forward—literally and figuratively!
A huge thank you to Paul Pascoe for representing us so well and for his kind words of appreciation. We’re proud to play a part in helping his team stay on track and can’t wait to see what the rest of the season has in store.
