Super 1 Larkhall April 2010

Friday, test day.

It was quite warm and dry and testing went well, on the 4th session it rained so I came in and we quickly changed the tyres to wets.

Saturday, Race day

After the test sessions we had qualifying and I was out in the first group, it was going well untill on my best lap which was 3 tenths faster by the second split someone turned in on me at the end of the straight and it cost me a lot of time and speed, but for this I could have made pole if i could have kept the 3 tenths till the end of the lap, but i ended up 18th.

Heat 1.

It was nice and sunny and dry, I started 12th and had a bad start losing a lot of places, during the race I battled back through the field to finish 7th.

Sunday.

Heat 2.

It was wet so we had to use new tyres and scrub them in during the race, i started 12th again and had another bad start, my carb went down half way through and i ended up 13th.

Final 1.

It had dryed and i had qualified 14th, I had another bad start and dropped to 21st by the end of the first lap, i battled my way back up to finish 12th.

Final 2.

I started 12 and had a good start and soon made my way to 8th and set about closing down the leading pack, it took about 8 laps to catch them, 2 laps from the end i made my move on Nathan Aston and at the next corner I passed James Kellett, but left the door open at the next one and lost the places back, in the end i finished 8th.

I am now in 8th place in the championship.
