That was a long 24 hours šŸ˜‚

The team pushed right til the end to try and get 3rd in class, but just couldn’t make up the deficit (a longer pit stop due to damage early on, changing a wishbone, caused by contact from another car).

We ended up 4th in the UK Pro class šŸ

As most of you will know, Will is now running the Legends Cars Championship – which means he’s had to step back from racing in the series he’s loved for so many years.

That doesn’t mean he’s done racing altogether. Far from it. He’s hoping to jump into a few races in other series across the year, and the plan is still very much to head to the U.S. Legend Cars International and INEX World Finals later this year.

And for those wondering whether he still gets his fix of Legends adrenaline — he does! Will is out in the two‑seater Legend Car before every race, taking guest passengers (usually series personnel, team members or sponsors) for a blast around the circuit. It’s not quite the same as racing, but it keeps him close to these little machines.

In the meantime, his championship‑winning #57 car has taken on a new life as the Championship’s own rental car. With the first two meetings of the season already complete, it’s had two brilliant guest drivers behind the wheel:

• Anthony Gauntlett, who joined us at Silverstone but couldn’t complete the full weekend due to commitments in another series on the International layout.
• Mark Ridout, who first tried a Legend at our January taster day, was immediately hooked by these little machines, and then put in a fantastic performance in the #57 at Donington Park.

This weekend at Brands Hatch GP, the car will be driven by Chris Thelwell, who also attended the January taster day & runs car #577 šŸ˜‰ in the Mazda MX5 Championship. We can’t wait to see how he gets on!

A huge thank you goes to LRS Racing, the family team who have kindly taken on the job of running the #57 on busy race weekends. They’ve been brilliant, and if you’re not following them already, we’d really recommend giving them a follow.

And while we’re on the subject – if you don’t yet follow the Legends Cars Championship page, now’s a great time to head over and keep up with everything happening across the grid.

Finally, to everyone who has supported over the years: thank you. Your messages, likes, comments and trackside chats have meant the world.

We might not be racing as regularly right now, but we’re certainly not done. Updates will be a little more sporadic as we settle into life as series owbers, but keep an eye out… there’s plenty more to come. šŸ
