oOple are reporting that in a closely fought 2wd championship, Tom Cockerill took the overall win in the 2010 BRCA National series at the very last final of the day at the final meeting of the year held at Stotfold yesterday. It wasn’t the way Tom would have liked to take the championship, sitting in the B final and marshalling the A, but Tom got to watch the proceedings. Ellis Stafford would need to win the meeting to snatch it away from Tom and with one win a piece between Ellis and Kevin Lee, it was down to the last leg of the A to decide the overall championship positions. Kevin Lee walked away from the rest to take the victory and this meant the title went to Cockerill and sponsors Schumacher and Speed Passion.
