Dan Cammish heads to Oulton Park for the fourth meeting of the British Touring Car Championship in a confident mood, saying that there is ‘plenty more to come’ from him and his Honda Civic Type-R.
Cammish has had a strong start to life in the BTCC, picking up two podium finishes to-date in the opening races at Donington Park and Thruxton respectively.
But the 2015 and 2016 Porsche Carrera Cup GB champion is used to winning and admits that he has faced a steep learning curve on his first foray into the competitive BTCC and the world of success ballast and reversed grids.
“I’m really pleased with the start of my BTCC career,” said Cammish, who lies eighth overall in the drivers’ championship standings. “It’s been a steep learning curve, but I am understanding more about the championship with each round.
“It certainly helps to have a brilliant team around me and a great team-mate in Matt.
“There is still plenty more to come from myself and the Civic Type R, which gives me confidence heading to Oulton Park.”
Cammish will head into qualifying at Oulton Park on Saturday with just 21 kg of ballast on board, and he believes that will again give him a chance to challenge for his first pole position.
“We won’t have too much weight on-board and qualifying has gone well in each round so far, so I believe we can get close to the front once again.
“I claimed a podium in my first-ever race at Oulton Park and picked up several wins there in the Porsche Carrera Cup GB, so you can be sure I will be giving it my absolute best to continue my good form next weekend.”
