Super 1 Shenington March 2010

Friday, test day.
It was a cold and wet start again, the first session i was a bit off the pace because my carb was dumping, the track started to dry out and I set some competetive lap times and tested my engines to see which would be the best for race day.

Saturday, race day.
It was cold and a bit damp but I tested on slicks in the warm up to double check the set up.

Qualifying
I had a bad qualifying session because i was in traffic and didnt find enough clear track to put in a good lap and i ended up qualifying 17th.

Heat 1
I started 12 and had a good start making up a few places on the first lap and worked my way to 8th place but i was starting to grip up and it slowed me down a bit, on the last lap i got knocked wide at Wilkins and lost 4 places to finish 12th.

Heat 2
I started 11th and had another great start and worked my way through the field to finish 6th, which is my best result in a national championship.

Sunday, Finals day

Final 1
I had qualified 9th so was looking forward to a good race but at the first hairpin on the first lap I got shunted off the track by James Manning and ended up dead last, the length of the straight behind everyone, it took me 10 laps to catch the back of the pack, but when I did I didnt waste any time passing them, overtaking 2 or 3 karts every lap and I managed to overtake James and finished 17th.

Final 2
I started 17 and made up a few places on the first lap, I then started to work with S13 so we could catch up the karts in front, we slowly worked our way through the field with s13 in 7th and me 8th, on the last lap I made a move for 7th but caught the bumper of s13 and it made me run wide and i ended up losing 2 places to finish 10th.

I am now 13th in the championship
