Above: Craig Hughes 1800Ti looking more impressive than ever!! Since Craig has owned the car it has gone through quite a few changes. Craig says "I bought the SS1 in April 2004 from Nigel Reeves who ran the car for 7 previous seasons, originally in standard turbo class, then modified and ultimately Super modified (as I bought it). The car in Nigel's hands won the Super modified class championship and in 2003 won the prestigious overall club championship. "Since my ownership in 2004, 1 event into the season, the car and driver spent most of the season acclimatising themselves (!) and won the super modified title even though the engine blew spectacularly at Curborough RSSOC '04" "In 2005 a new engine was built with more power. There were lots of handling improvements and again it won the Super modified class title." "2006 saw a real concerted effort to go for the overall title, having rebuilt most aspects of the car over the last two years and improved the handling to my liking. I finally managed to take the 2006 overall club championship title after contesting 15 rounds and narrowly fending off Garry Cox (modified champ 2006 SE5a) and Chris Eades (Std class champ 2006 SS1 1600).
