Luke Pullen Begins his 2024 BRSCC Mazda MX-5 Championship Challenge

It’s been a busy few weeks for Amesbury racing driver, Luke Pullen. After racing in Atlanta he landed back in the UK with two days to spare before heading to Silverstone for round one of the BRSCC Mazda MX-5 Championship on 16th & 17th March.

Starting in second place on the grid, Luke was the fastest driver on track in the first race and was about to take the lead when disaster struck and his left rear wheel snapped off!

Not only did this deny him a potential race win but he had to start at the back of the grid for the next race. In wet and tricky conditions, and with some minor car damage, he fought his way from 22nd to 6th place and just missed out on a podium to finish 4th in the final race.

Three weeks later the second round of the championship took place on 6th & 7th April at a very windy Snetterton Circuit in Norfolk. After three very close and exciting races Luke came away with trophies for 2nd and 3rd place and finished 4th in a closely fought last race.

“After the bad luck at Silverstone it was good to get back on the podium and consolidate a decent points haul,” commented Luke. “Bring on the next round!”

Luke Pullen at Michelin Road Atlanta Raceway, Georgia, U.S.A.

Our featured local racing driver, Luke Pullen, had an amazing opportunity to drop in for a round of the SCCA Spec Miata Championship at the prestigious Michelin Road Atlanta Raceway in early March, competing against some of the USA’s top drivers.

Luke had to learn a new track and a whole new racing style in a left hand drive car on different slick compound tyres all in one weekend. After only two hours practice he qualified 13th out of 47 drivers but didn’t have luck in the races due to incidents on the track around him that pushed him back. With some impressive pace - putting in the same lap times as the leaders - and some signature overtake moves he made up positions but ran out of time as both races finished early under safety car conditions.

John Grimm of Ohio based CRP Racing said, "Luke is a force to be reckoned with. In a weekend where every race had incidents and safety cars he achieved a best finish of 17th in some very wet and messy conditions which is amazing! We hope he can join us again in the US and aim for the top step on the podium in America this season."
