BROUGHTON Gifford-based racer, Travis Vince, notched up three podium finishes over the weekend of 23rd and 24th April.
Paul Korkus reports, “Travis competed in the ACU 250cc National and NG Cup championship races at Brands Hatch on his TZ 250cc Yamaha. Despite missing the first round of the championship at Oulton Park after a practice spill, he was eighth fastest and fourth in the NG Cup class at Brands Hatch.
“He made a good start and finished his first race in seventh place overall and third in the NG Cup class.
“During his second race he was locked in a great wheel-to-wheel dice with Ian Perks on his Honda RS 250cc machine for the NG Cup victory and they were joined by James Seath also on a Honda RS 250 machine in an exciting three-way dice.
“Travis crossed the line in sixth place overall and second in the NG Cup class behind Ian Perks. These three were in the thick of the action in the final race of the weekend and in the closing stages of the race Travis got past early NG Cup leader Ian Perks and managed to pull out a 1.51 second lead and finished in fifth place overall and first in the NG Cup class.
