// Murray
takes victory at blistering Snetterton
This
weekend Eoin gave a healthy boost to his Championship standings
with two 2nd places at rounds 11 & 12 of the Elf Clio
UK Cup at Donnington Park this weekend.
Driving
for the Xcel Motorsport team the Holfeld F1 backed driver
has taken a major step forward with consistent performances
to put him fourth in the Championship, on dropped rounds.
Performing
in front of an estimated 24,000 crowd on Sunday for round
12 Eoin led for a long period in the race before being overtaken
by championship leader Danny Buxton. Although battling hard
both drivers pulled away from the rest of the field and
were clear by a considerable margin at the end.
‘’
I’m very happy with the weekend two 2nd place finishes,
up to fourth in the championship, after a difficult start
to the season and I matched Danny Buxton’s best time
to within a tenth. All told, I am happy and in confident
mood for the rest of the season.’’
