It was much warmer at Whilton Mill for the second round of the Super One Series. The kart worked well as soon as it hit the track on Friday morning, and after a few setup adjustments we were right on the pace. I qualified in 3rd place with a 43.79 (just a tenth behind the polesitter) and followed it with a close second place in Heat 1. A spark plug change for Heat 2 resulted in the engine dying before I got started, so this put me 17th for Final 1. I managed to get up to 5th, but after some close racing I came off worst and dropped to 9th. I started well in Final 2, getting up to 4th place and catching the leaders, before my chain snapped, putting an end to my race. Visit the Round Archive page for results from the past two rounds!

Well after a long weekend, I'm back from PF International. It was a difficult meeting, with extremely inconsistent weather, torrential downpours followed by sun and warm winds, so the track conditions were constantly changing. It was hard to set the kart up right each time and so it took time to get used to it! It wasn't helped by the fact that one of my engines failed during friday practice, with a holed piston. In Final 2 I started well but my throttle return spring snapped, so I had to drive one handed for 17 laps! I did manage to finish in 9th place though.
