360 Racing were at Oulton Park last Saturday with James Sweetnam and Wesley Fongenie, as they tackled the penultimate weekend of this year’s Radical Challenge.
After morning qualifying Sweetnam was somewhat disappointed to be eighth quickest, “I struggled in traffic again, each time I was on a good lap I seemed to get held up,” he said. Fongenie was 16th best.
As the lights went out Sweetnam was straight onto the attack and challenging for the top six. “It was a particularly good start and I was challenging Elliott Goodman for sixth. I got alongside but was put on the grass on the outside at Cascades and was almost last when I rejoined,” he explained.
Having retaken team mate Fongenie for 13th on the second lap, he was closing in on the cars ahead. “Into Lodge Corner on the fifth lap I was chasing Nicholas Francis, but I misjudged his pace and had the choice of the gravel or hit him and my race was over in the gravel,” he said.
Fongenie continued to have a fairly solitary race but was almost caught by Chris Myhill for 12th on the last lap.
