The finale unfolds under the FuelTech/Motorsport UK British Drag Racing Championship banner. Robinson and Webster start level on points, making round wins the decisive metric.

Robinson controls qualifying with a career-best 5.811 seconds at 247.70 mph. That lap sets the competitive tone and provides a crucial performance reference for race day adjustments.

Career-best 5.811 seconds earned Robinson the number one qualifier at Santa Pod.

He maintains pace in eliminations, running 5.851 at 249.49 mph in the semifinals. That consistency secures lane choice for the final and preserves strategic flexibility.

The final starts with Webster’s sharper reaction, 0.07 seconds to Robinson’s 0.09. Robinson’s Camaro carries harder mid-track and top-end, edging a 5.91 over a 5.95 to clinch the crown.

The title was decided by 0.0098 seconds, roughly 3.5 feet at the stripe.

Robinson credits the Robinson Race Cars crew. The group delivers under sustained workload and evolving conditions, translating preparation into two wins and two runner-up finishes within championship rounds.

The calendar is dense. The team contests 11 events, adds two runner-up results at Outlaw-style meetings, and tackles three rounds of the Carl Cox Motorsport FIVE90 championship, finishing fourth against international opposition.

Technical contrasts shape the matchup. Robinson’s roots-blown, clutch-based Camaro meets Webster’s twin-turbo Mustang. Power delivery characteristics and lane choice influence traction windows and incremental gains across the run.

Performance depth in British Pro Mod continues to build, mirroring trends seen at NHRA Pro Mod at Indy. Tight spreads reward disciplined setups and repeatability across changing track conditions.

Robinson captures a record-extending 10th Motorsport UK Pro Modified championship.

Sponsor and partner support remains pivotal, including Star Racer belts, Mike Janis Superchargers, NGK Spark Plugs UK, Nimbus Motorsport, and PAC Racing Springs, whose contributions underpin reliability and development.

As a milestone achievement, this title elevates the benchmark for contenders. Robinson’s execution across qualifying and eliminations sets the standard for the class heading into future campaigns.
