2010 turned out to be a phenomenal year for the JC Racing Team with continued success on the local and national circuit, along with competing in the European Formula O-250 Series. The team also broke the World 250cc Hydroplane Speed record during Coniston Records Week clocking a speed of 112.20mph
After spending 2009 getting to know the 250cc GRM engine, team driver Julian Codling purchased the latest Trombetta designed hydroplane to make the team as competitive as possible for 2010.
This proved to be the case on the national circuit with the team taking maximum race wins at each of the three rounds to secure the 2010 National Outbaord title along with the 250cc National Sprint title.
Venturing into the Formula O-250 Series for the first time was always going to be a learning curve as the team would be competing against the best O-250 drivers in the world.
The first round in Baja, Hungary saw the team finish in 5th place, which was followed up with a 4th place finish at the second round in Bitterfeld, Germany.
The final two rounds were held in Italy and with some lightning starts Julian brought the JC Racing Team their first European podium with a 3rd place overall finish at Auronzo Di Cadore. The final round held in Boretto a week later saw the team go one better and finish 2nd place overall.
After the four European rounds the JC Racing Team claimed the overall bronze medal behind the ever impressive Rene Behncke of Germany and Salvatore Chiuri of Italy. It was a fantastic result for the JC Racing Team in what was the full debut season of international racing.
Despite the heavy commitments of national and international racing the team still supported their local club events at Oulton Broad whenever possible and once again regained the illustrious King of The Broads title, breaking the 250cc lap record along the way setting a time of 38.94 seconds.
With such a successful season it was hard to see how it could get any better but Team driver Julian codling took the 250cc powered hydroplane up to Coniston Records Week to try and break the long standing 250cc World speed record set at 100.56mph. Quite literally on the limit Julian powered the team into the record books clocking a staggering speed of 112.20mph.
