| Friday 1st July 2005 ProKart Solo Races Race 1 For the start of the race one we had 17 karts starting on the grid. They done 2 warm up
laps, lined up on the grid, watched the lights turn from red to green and off they went! Newcomer to the kids league - Sam Smith a.k.a Smiffy is currently holding out well in 5th place in his first ever prokart race. He must be well scared with all them faster karts out there. Charlie Boy got away to a smooth start for the adults league. Richard never even got to start the race because he hit the tyres on the warm up laps and completely bent his steering. 5 laps have passed and Steve a.k.a Pikey was forced to retire from the race because he claimed his seat is too small! Nigel Cook hits a sandy spot on the edge of the track and kicked up a lot of dust. Dan the Man overtakes Chris for the lead and gets a nudging sign too! Apparently he's already had a warning! Rusty was catching up with Simon from Team T.S.R until Rusty pushed his kart too hard and spun it going down the straight. Parkwalks Racing David is on the grass trying to fix his wheel because as he was going along his kart suddenly went 'plunk' and the wheel had come off! 20 minutes have gone and Team Gary has paid a visit to one of the marshall posts tyres! And A.K.C is in the pits and then he goes up to the workshop to do some further investigation. The race was ended 12 minutes early due to a major pile up and scrapping! This time we had 12 karts on the grid. Dan the Man was on pole for this one. He got away to a swift start. The weather is still dry thankfully. They are racing the 750 metre configuration. 7 minutes in to the race and A.K.C Colin and Charlie Boy are having a good battle between themselves. On most laps they are swapping positions and generally just having fun! Chris Woods is kicking up some dust behind him. He got the fastest lap of 32.47 on lap 17. Results |
