In honour of our dear friend #337 Lee Fear, we will have some bumper stickers at Eastbourne on Monday.

Lee was well known around the race track and a special person in within the Super Twos community. He will be sadly missed 💔

This Sunday sees the Super Twos contest the British championship at Aldershot Raceway. Current holder #761 Matt Smith has held the title for the past two years. His new style wing looks fantastic with the prestigious black and white chequered flag donned upon it but will it have to return to the sign writers after Sunday or will it get to stay for another year?
As always with the Super Twos British Championship, the grid will be drawn out of a hat on the day - therefore the race really is anybody’s! With #33 Billy Fear having taken the Midland Championship at Hednesford last week he will be hungry for more championships to add to his roof. White grader #101 Michael Tidd also got away from the pack at Hednesford in Heat One and took his first ever win… could he go on to do the same again? The likes of Tristan Jackson will be looking for a return to star grade, could it be one of the speedy juniors that moved up last year or will it be a more experienced driver such as Seamus Cushnahan, Jordan Salmon or even David Gooch who will have hopefully have rectified his car gremlins from last week! With a big line up of cars already booked in and more expected, it looks to be a very interesting race. We wish every driver the very best of luck for Sunday and we look forward to finding out who will next take the black and white chequered roof.

Since 2021 #16 Courtney Smith has held the Midland Champion title. With the closure of Birmingham Wheels, there were no tracks left within the Midlands that the Super Twos raced at. That was all to change on Saturday as the Super Twos made their Hednesford Hills Raceway debut. The first time back in the Midlands meant the long awaited Midland Championship was back up for grabs. Unfortunately before the championship began, the rain started to fall thick and fast, at this point we knew we were in for an interesting race…
#33 Billy Fear battled it out for a while before taking the lead spot. With cars behind him spinning in the wet or battling hard with each other, Billy pulled an almost 1/3 of a lap lead, that was until relative newcomer #579 Dan Harris succumbed to the tracks slippery surface and began to spin. With #466 Burksfield, #633 Amas and #107 Thomas all in close proximity and unable to avoid each other, the inevitable happened - with Amas ending up on top of Harris's car and the medical team being called to assist Thomas. With yellows out this meant the gap between Billy and the others was closed and the race was
to be anyone’s. Billy again took the lead before newcomer #242 Sam Powell spun and was collected by #85 Marchant and the yellow flags came out again. This meant Billy had lost his fantastic lead once more and had a massive challenge lying ahead of him with the rolling restart and just 2 laps to go, with National Champion Stewart Adams directly behind him and the highly experienced Jordan Salmon sitting in 3rd. Billy managed to get his foot down fast when the green flag came out and managed to hold off hits from the cars behind with Adams and Salmon fighting hard and switching positions continuously. With Billy’s car losing grip almost every time he came round turn 3 he certainly kept us on the edge of our seats of whether he would take the chequered flag or fall victim to the rain. Eventually he took the double chequered flag and became Midland Champion 2024! There were tears and cheers all around. It was great to see 18yr old Billy with so much determination and confidence on the track and great to see his hard work finally pay off and take the Championship in front of all his family especially Dad, Mum and Nan!

The super Twos entertainer both on and off the track, ‘Famous’ Seamus Cushnahan #979 will be starting the National Championship on second row inside directly behind friend/foe Matt Smith.

Seamus, last year you were 5th row outside, this year, second row inside after finishing 3rd in the points. How are you feeling about your position this year and the fact you have 2 x notoriously fast Smith’s in front of you?

979-It’s been a tough season compared to last year, I’ve been getting a lot of help with Matt on the set up of the car, plenty of maintenance this year has gone in as John will know with all the invoices for bits lol. As far as how am I feeling, need to try and dispose of Matt early on and then worry about everyone else behind me, as for Courtney she's in a good position to get away and will be hard to catch. It’s due to be a wet meeting which will definitely mix things up for the big race.

Lots of fellow drivers have been predicting that it could be you taking the chequered flag on Thursday. Who do you think will be taking home the gold roof and who is your dark horse?

979-Tough question to answer! It is absolutely anyones race this year, I said it last year that everyone is getting faster, this season we have had consistent drivers turning up to every meeting and putting in the effort, everyone is faster again! My dark horse is James kinton, he holds his racing line and is not afraid to use the bumper but we also have Duncan and Stewart Adams who both go well around Yarmouth, Michael Tidd and Barry Amos could be one to watch for.

You’ve been obtaining some good results at Yarmouth and back in May you won the East Anglian Championship there. How do feel
about the unforgiving Yarmouth fence and which would you say is your favourite track and why?

979-The posts are deadly round there, I did catch one this year and ripped a corner off the car, if it's wet it's even more worrying. My favourite track would have to be Eastbourne and Mildenhall on the shale.

The saying is ‘there’s no friends on track’. You’ve got friend Matt Smith in front of you? There is so much banter between you both! The big question is will you still be mates after the race?

979-What happens on the track, stays on the track.
PS Matt you're going in! Lol
Of course we will be friends that's what the racings about. Racing is racing and that's one thing about the super twos - no matter what happens on the track, everyone helps each other in the pits to get back out on the track and back to the racing, not that many classes you could say that about.

You’ve been giving some wise words and car help to a few of the juniors of late which has helped them to improve their performance. A lot of the juniors look up to your driving skills. Your son Seamus junior is now joining the super twos after hiring a car last month. What words of advice will you be giving him as he goes out on his first Championship race on the same night as your National?

979-Love helping anyone out. There has been a couple of kids and their parents who are new to the sport and need some guidance - I'd help anyone out, I get satisfaction from watching them do well, again what the sports all about. As for my boy, he got bumper happy in the hire car and didn't get any decent results. I'm hoping that’s out of his system now, he's out in the brothers car on Thursday, he had some testing on Saturday and hopefully he can show some pace but it's all a learning curve for the kids as much as it is for the adults.

Finally Seamus, is there anyone you with to give your thanks to?

979-Like to thank my sponsors
AHM motorsports
Roots contractors
JMC custom paint works
Billy fabrications
John Smith for all the help
The super two family in the pits
The Wife for the late evenings in the garage
And last but not least
Matt Smith 'you're going in!'

Thank you for talking with us Seamus and we wish you the best of luck for Thursday!

Once again on the front row for the National Championship, is lady racer #16 Courtney Smith. Last year, she scored a third place in this race and looks to improve on this performance.

So Courtney, you’ve not won a heat or final so far this season, but your great consistency, which has carried over from last year, has put you on the front row. You’ll be lined up alongside fellow racer and brother #761 Matt Smith. How does it feel to be in such a vulnerable position, on the outside of row one?

16 – I have been unfortunate this year, luck hasn’t been on my side at all to be honest. When we are going well, places are usually high, which makes up my points. With that being said, I'm lucky to have even gotten anywhere near the front row. But with the outside it is what it is, I will have the pack behind me but hopefully we can force our way through and see how it goes.

You and your brother are known to put on a good fight against each other, and sometimes trip over yourselves. Who do you think will come out victorious in the National Championship, and who could be an underdog who avoids the ever present action and take the win?

16 – Me and Matt have gotten better this year for sure, but obviously, I don’t know how he does it, but he's a lucky sod! There's some tough competition this year, everyone on the grid is more than capable to win. It really is anyone's race, after all, Yarmouth posts aren't forgiving! For the dark horse, either Craig, Duncan or Andy. Andy loves Yarmouth and if he gets away; he'd be a hard one to catch.

Last season, you managed to be the wrong way up multiple times, and have, fortunately, only rolled once this year. What goes through your head as something like that happens?

16 – I'm not really sure what's going on, if it wasn't for bad luck I'd have none at all! But as dad says ‘You make your own luck in life!’ It happens so quickly, usually I'm just thinking, ‘This is a joke now.’ My first words to the marshalls are ‘Can I get out then so I can get my car back over!’

You had a stunning new car for this year, which was proudly displayed at the Motorsport with Attitude show in February. Unfortunately, early on in the year, you took a tumble (which you are now well known for) at Northampton. However, you have suffered hardly any trouble flying through the field, towards the front. Do you feel as though some lapped traffic may affect the outcome of the race?

16 – Thank you, we may be biased, but by far the prettiest we've built yet.
Well it did last year, which was surprising really, because it's rare we lap people. 99% of people are well on the pace. But again it did last year, just have to keep our head down and race a normal race.

You do so much work off track to help others who have damage, you also do loads of work behind the scenes for the Super Twos and we are all really appreciative of your help. Is there anyone who you want to give a special thanks to?

16 – I do try. As always dad, he’s created a formula and the passion for it is like no other. Firstly, I’d like to thank all my sponsors for their support, also my family, Char, obviously my biggest fan. To everyone really, everyone that believes in me in everything I do, the support doesn’t go unnoticed and we appreciate all the support we get as a formula. You guys are all amazing people as much as we do behind the scenes and work the formula wouldn’t be what it is without all the drivers and their families support so thank you guys for that.

Thank you Courtney for taking the time to talk to us. We wish you the best of luck in the National Championship.

19 year-old #218 James Kinton joined the Super Twos just this year. Having never raced before, his inexperience certainly doesn't show on track! James made it to blue grade by his 5th meeting and has managed to qualify for row five in this year’s National Championship.
Firstly, James, how have you found your first season racing in the Super Twos?

218 - I have loved every single minute of being in the Super Twos and I’ve loved every bit of it!

You’ve travelled thousands of miles to tracks as far as Eastbourne. Some have provided better results for you than others. Out of all the tracks you have so far raced at, can you tell us which is your favourite and why?

218 - That’s a tough one, but I would have to say Northampton. It was where I gained my first podium finish and I thoroughly enjoyed every second and every corner. The fact that it was a weekender meeting too made it even more special as we got to repeat it all again the following day.

You’ve certainly got ‘stuck in’ on track, a beautiful 360 spin at Northampton and getting some good airtime at Yarmouth. However, sometimes damage is inevitable in your ‘skirmishes’. What would you say is your favourite thing about the Super Twos?

218 - I love the fact that the racing is close and fun and it's a formula like no other - if you get damage everyone chips in to help repair the damage and get you out for the next race.

You’ve qualified for the fifth row in the National Championship, with your dad ( #213 Steve Kinton) starting in the row just in front of you. How do you feel about your grid position, knowing your dad is just ahead?

218 - Well, I’m not gonna lie - there will be ‘some’ contact… I will see how my car is running and handling and my plan is just to try and get as far up the places as I can.

There is quite a fast, tough grid in the rows ahead. Who do you think will be taking the gold roof home and who could possibly be a dark horse on the grid?

218 - #761 Matt Smith is who I think will win. He’s always fast and gets through the traffic in no time but I think #979 Seamus Cushnahan could be the dark horse if he takes out the competition and he is in a good starting position to do just that!

The gold roof race is a night race at a usually packed Great Yarmouth Stadium. The dark night and the bright lights always makes the racing a delight for both the drivers and the crowd! Do you feel any extra pressure, knowing that there will be a large crowd watching you race?

218 - No, no pressure really. I’m just out there to have fun and enjoy myself.

Lastly James, is there anyone you wish to thank?

218 - There are so many to thank!

Dad for always helping me with the car. Mom and Ryan for being so supportive, John Smith for his help with the cars and Nathan Dent for sorting my car out after my big Eastbourne crash. The Dent and the Anstiss families for being so friendly towards me and for making me feel so welcomed into the formula. Lastly my brother Scott for allowing me to use his car whilst he’s away working in New Zealand - and sorry Scott but you're not getting it back!

Thank you James, we wish you the best of luck in your first ever National Championship with the Super Twos.
