19 June, 2011: Round 4 of the 2011 BSSO championship coincided with the Superstars International Race Series which meant there was more to see in between races including the likes of touring cars and pickup trucks. Donington's 2.5 mile circuit may have been great for the cars but put a strain on the scooters, some more than others. Sam Schofield appeared to be getting into a more natural flow on the circuit gaining in confidence with every lap. But young gun Joe Ravenscroft had a tough time at Donington. His Zip had just undergone a full rebuild and was producing good power on the dyno, but technical problems occurred during practice, something went drastically wrong and despite Joe being the third fastest rider he returned to the paddock with a seized engine. A spare engine came into play but this didn't hold out during the first race either, this put an abrupt end to the the day's racing for Joe. Meanwhile it was pretty much business as usual for Josh Brown. But like Joe, Josh also got a DNF in the first race after the engine exploded towards the end of the race. The second race of the day had to be stopped due to Alex van Dyke taking a fall. In most races this season it seems to be a close battle between Josh and Craig Bewey. But victory came in the final race when Josh just managed to win by a 1000th of a second putting Craig in second. Watch the highlights from Round 4 at Donington in our video. :: www.adrenalin-pedstop.com ::
