Classic Historic GTI Touring Car Championship Racing Ascari Race Resort 2011 2012 crashes VW Golf
Peter Bowerman (aka Spear) 7th & 8th race in the FAA Classic & GTI Touring Car Championship (round 4) 12th & 13th November 2011 2012 at the famous and exclusive Ascari Race Resort Spain circuit.
The weekend stated well with Peter Bowerman aka SPEAR winning the 7th race in class, after a close fought battle with Javier J Martinez with Antonio J Romero spinning out in front of them on the last couple of laps in his awesome Shelby Cobra.
Spear came 3rd in class in race 8 of the year after taking a heavy hit in the back and side from the Jose C Lirola's No 5 (green) GTI again!!!! this time Jose did not lift off, instead kept shunting Peter Bowerman No.7 around in a fast corner until Peter spun and Kissed the Ascari wall.
Peter quickly recovered but did not manage to catch up to the leaders with the damaged car, but managed to retain 3rd place with a few very close battles and misses with Eduardo Perez in his Citroen. After final races of the year at Jerez lots of body work will need replacing on Spears Lucky No.7 Black Golf GTI ready for the 2012 season.
Touring cars, Classic Touring Cars, Historic Touring Cars joined the Classic & GTI Touring cars on track at the same time and this weekend were also Joined by the Iberian Gentleman Racers and the International EuroBoss Championship.

FIA CLASSIC TOURING CAR WTCC BTCC CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF GTI RACING ASCARI SPAIN FAA 2011 CRASH TOP GEAR
Peter Bowerman's (aka Spear) 5th & 6h race in the FAA Golf GTI and Classic Touring Car Championship (round 3) 2nd October 2011 at the exclusive Ascari Race Resort circuit.
The day stated well with Spear qualifying first, but then missing the grid entrance by a minute with 7 other cars, as the race had been brought forward slightly. This meant that he had to start from the pit lane for the first race and fight from the back of the grid. Angry with loosing his first place and starting well behind the back of the grid, he pushed extra hard and took a risk with some instant overtaking moves including the outside of the fastest corner leading onto the back straights, but luckily they all paid off and he finally got third place. See some of the action in the video above, unfortunately some great action was missed in the second race as the new HD Hero camera batteries ran flat.
In the second race of the weekend Spear managed to steel first place on the last couple of corners. Stephen had a promising start overtaking a few cars quickly, but in the first few laps of the second race pushed a little too hard and lost control of his GTI in the Ascari S's and smashed into the barrier and rolled his car. Stephen made a quick exit and was fine, but unfortunately his car was written off.
Stephen is hoping to have a car built in 4 weeks ready for the next race weekend again at Ascari Race Resort circuit on the 12& 13th of November 2011. The Touring cars will be joining the Classic Touring cars again as usual for the weekends racing, but this time so will the Historic F1 race cars.
