| Friday 21st October 2005 ProKart 2hr Endurance After 15 minutes qualifying these were the top 3 starting positions and their teams. On pole was Sean + Dan, on 2nd was Team T.S.R and on 3rd was new team Just beginning. We had two new teams joining us for tonight's race. They were Just Beginning and Parr Racing. Team Just Beginning qualified on 3rd with their teams fastest lap of 40.95. 2 solo efforts-as usual-Colin and Charlie. Sean gets off to a smooth start. He is in the 39 second laps and its only lap 2. The rest are in 42 second laps. Sean is 12.37 seconds ahead of 2nd place Colin. And just 4 minutes have passed. 12 minutes in and Team T.S.R dropped to 8th as they had a crash in to the tyres, nose
first. 15 minutes have gone, and the first pit stops start to take place. Chris Harfield from team Just Beginning is doing great! He races in our thunder leagues but he is doing so much better in his prokart. Charlie, Colin and Roy from Parr Racing are all battling. Ray is 9th, whereas Colin and Charlie are coming up to lapping him and they are in 2nd and 3rd place. Rookies Richard is trying to go too fast and it is now starting to spit (with rain) he is on the grass. 34 minutes have gone and Daniel has a problem with his kart - maybe something to do with the spark plugs? Anyway they swop over to Sean's' kart but it still costs them first place. They are now 23.23 seconds behind first place - Colin. New fastest lap by Sean + Dan with a 39.08 on lap 60. Nearly an hour in to the race and Just Beginning acquire a puncture! Bless em and they were doing so well! Team Parr Racing and team Just Beginning are battling for 7th and 8th places. They are
doing really well for their first race! |
