Orlowski – the man to beat
Last weekend was round six, which was the final round of the Worksop Masters series 2022-23, the fantastic track crew once again did not disappoint, there was a brilliant layout which would prove to be a challenge for many, it had a large table top as usual and many features.
The same format as at previous rounds was the order of the day, 1 timed practice followed by 4 qualifying runs and finishing off with 1 round of finals for all.
As this was the last round of the series, there were still many overall championship positions to be decided.
4wd was first up as usual, it was total domination by Michal Orlowski as he took TQ in all 4 rounds, therefore he would line up on pole position for the final. Edward Callan would line up 2nd and Jonathan Skidmore 3rd.
The CAT L1R proving to be very good with 7 of them making the A final.
Final result of 4WD
1st Michal Orlowski – Schumacher
2nd Jonathan Skidmore – Xray
3rd Edward Callan – Schumacher
4th Ben Smith – Schumacher
5th Lee Martin – Schumacher
6th Luke Holdsworth – Schumacher
7th Josh Holdsworth – Schumacher
8th Ben Simpson – Yokomo
9th Matthew Thompson – Schumacher
10th William Skidmore – Xray
In 2WD qualifying, Jonathan Skidmore would take TQ in the first 2 rounds of qualifying, but then Michal Orlowski took TQ in rounds 3 and 4 with a faster time, so would take pole position. Therefore Jonathan Skidmore would be 2nd on the grid and Ben Smith would line up 3rd.
Final result of 2WD
1st Michal Orlowski – Schumacher
2nd Jonathan Skidmore – Xray
3rd Ben Smith – Schumacher
4th Edward Callan – Schumacher
5th Will Skidmore – Xray
6th Lee Martin – Schumacher
