The Famous Eastbourne Electric Car Club hosted the final round of the BRCA National Clubmans Championship. CML/Team Associated driver Adrian Bidewell using his AE TC7.1 Reedy Powered car was in contest for winning the championship after having consistent podium finishes and wins throughout the year, which would end up being pivotal.

With all to play for Adrian starting Q4 made the decision to keep a fresh set of tyres for the finals, as this is where all the points are to maximise his chance. With a finish of A2 in the first leg and an unavoidable accident in leg 2 this was enough to draw on points and win on count back, bringing the title to CML/Team Associated in his first year driving for the team.
