# Champion! Wes Payne Wins the 7 Racing UK Championship at Snetterton

 (24 September, 2025)

![420SChamp-DOM_5016](https://blog.trans-rak.com/hs-fs/hubfs/420SChamp-DOM_5016.jpg?width=5568&height=3712&name=420SChamp-DOM_5016.jpg)What a weekend. What a finale. What a result! We’re beyond proud to share that **Trans-Rak’s very own [Wes Payne](https://seven.racing/index.php/driver/050-declan-dolan-420r/) is the 2025 7 Racing 420 Sportsman Champion** after an unforgettable showdown at Snetterton. 🏆

**Wheel-to-Wheel Drama**

The final races of the season gave the fans everything - speed, skill and edge-of-your-seat tension. In one of the races, Wes crossed the line just **one hundredth of a second** ahead of his rival. That tiny margin summed up the entire season: competitive, thrilling, and absolutely relentless.

**From the Workshop to the Winner’s Circle**

At Trans-Rak, we usually spend our time making sure cars get to the grid anywhere in the world with our [R-RAK](https://www.trans-rak.com/products/r-rak/)**system**. But this weekend, it wasn’t about racks and containers - it was about passion, community, and one driver pushing to the limit. Seeing our name on the top step of the podium makes all the hard work worthwhile.

**A Community Effort**

The Caterham paddock has been buzzing all season long, and this championship is as much a celebration of the community as it is of Wes’s driving. Every battle, every overtake, and every cheer trackside added to the atmosphere that made the 2025 season so special.

**Thank You**

A huge thank you goes out to everyone who makes racing possible: the mechanics who keep the cars alive, the teams who work tirelessly behind the scenes, the organisers and promoters who put the show together, and of course the **orange army of marshals** who keep us all safe. Without you, none of this could happen.

**What’s Next?**

For now, it’s time to enjoy the moment and celebrate an incredible season. But just like our racks inside shipping containers, the journey never really stops - we’re already looking ahead to 2026 and the new adventures to come.

From all of us at Trans-Rak: **Congratulations, Wes - 420 Sportsman Champion!**
