Racecar designed livery debuts for Sarah Bennett-Baggss first outing in the Adrian Flux BMW Z4 M

Sarah - who handles social media stuff for Racecar - www.racecar.com/crm.asp - debuted her BMW Z4 last weekend - with a new livery designed by Racecar - PR below:

Silverstone was the host circuit for the opening two rounds of the GT Cup last weekend, where Sarah Bennett-Baggs campaigned her Adrian Flux BMW Z4 M Coupe in Class 3. In Practice on Saturday morning Sarah got off to a flying start running quickest in her class by a clear 2 seconds a lap. Needless to say, by the time the equalisation police had been out, Sarah was carrying another 60 kilos of lead, and various cars had swapped classes. The final run of the day was qualifying where Sarah qualified 3rd in class in the 42 car strong grid, with 9 cars in Class 3. Both races were on Sunday afternoon. In race 1, Sarah started extremely well, chasing down her class leaders David Botterill and David Hathaway. The opportunity to overtake David B vanished when Sarah was passed by two Class 2 996 Cup cars which subsequently held her up through the complex, increasing the gap. Sarah had an exciting moment when the Marcos of Graham Winston narrowly missed her, spinning across her bonnet in the braking zone for Copse; Unruffled, Sarah continued chasing the pack to finish 4th in Class behind the BMW M3 E36 of Adrian Watt. 29th out of 42.In race 2 starting grid positions are determined by the 2nd fastest qualifying lap. Sarah started 2nd in class next to David Botterill ahead of Race 1 class winner David Hathaway. She made a brilliant start chasing the lead pack, moved ahead of David Botterill and led Class 3 for the first half of the race, until a lockup into Abbey resulted in a 360 degree spin, dropping her to 6th in class. Although rejoining and making up a number of places, Sarah was to spin a 2nd time at Luffield on some oil leaving her at the back of the grid. Never giving up Sarah put in her fastest lap of the race chasing the back of the pack but only managed to pick off one back marker to finish 8th in class and not quite last! "Not the result I was hoping for, but the good news is the car is fabulous, and this weekend has been a success in terms of getting to grips with the new car and how reliable it's been. Butler Motorsport have done an amazing job getting it all sorted in time, and I must also say thanks to Ambient Graphics in Ely for their last minute car wrap, which transformed the look of the car on Thursday before the race."
