Pay per click management consultancy Top Position traded in computers and mouse mats for a steering wheel and brake pads at Brands Hatch on Sunday after teaming up with leading British racing driver, Rick Pearson.

Showing off Top Position branding on the bonnet of his awesome Nissan Primer race car, Pearson and his team mate Derek Palmer Jnr set the pace in Saturday's early morning qualifying session. Pipped to pole in the dying minutes of the forty-five minute timed practice, the all British duo were eventually classified second in class and eight on the overall starting grid.

Exceptional Pedigree

"We had a great qualifying session," Pearson said. "Of course we would have liked to have hung on to pole after being fastest throughout but second is a great achievement and gives some indication just what this car is capable of."

Developed specifically for racing by Japanese motor manufacturers Nissan, the Top Position-sponsored Nissan Primera showcased its exceptional pedigree under scorching skies at the start of the race, hustling past two cars on the opening tours to slot neatly into sixth place.

Fast Forward

Cheered on by a full contingent of Top Position staff and Google AdWords clients, Pearson's deft turn of speed shuddered to an unexpected halt early on lap five due to engine failure.

"It's really disappointing way to end our home race, especially given how well we performed this weekend," says Pearson. "Looking on the bright side we did set the fastest lap of the race and we can take heart from that."

"Rick did a great job," said Top Position founder and managing director, Daniel Jupp. "Top Position has been at the forefront of the pay per click (PPC) industry for several years now so it's fitting that our car set the fastest lap of the race!"
