DAYTONA TAMWORTH HOSTS PENULTIMATE ROUND OF THE TW STEEL DMAX CHAMPIONSHIP •Five DMAX titles wrapped up for 2015 •Lights Heats goes down to the wire at final round
Daytona's new kart circuit at Tamworth played host to the penultimate round of the TW Steel DMAX Championship last Sunday (18 October). The immaculate 1000 m track has already been proclaimed as 'the best in the UK' by karting aficionados - and the 109 DMAX competitors were equally as impressed as they got familiar with the Midlands tarmac over two days of fast and furious racing. The TW Steel DMAX Lights category raced on Saturday (17th) followed by the Intermediates and Heavies on the Sunday - extra testing was specially laid on by Daytona Tamworth so the drivers could get to grips with this exciting circuit.DMAX series stalwart, Chris Hackworth, flawlessly wrapped up the Lights Endurance Championship - finishing the race in second but bagging enough points needed to take the silverware from Tom Golding. Other 2015 champs crowned were Chris Carter who secured the Heavy Endurance and Heavy Heats titles. It was also a tremendous weekend for Joe Holmes who seized his third consecutive Intermediate Endurance Championship title and to cap it all, he is also the acclaimed winner of every Intermediate Heats final he has entered this year - what a season!
