ProKart Solo Races

Race 1

Kids-pole-Nick
Adults-pole-Pete

21 people competing in tonight's first 45 minute race. It consisted of 7 kids and 14 adults. What an ace turnout! The start was quoted as 'mega!'

It is chaos on the track! Racing the 765-metre circuit - it's very fast!

On the first lap Jake and Graham were together playing in the tyres! Graham got away again but Jake broke his track rod so he didn't get very far!

This lot are going too fast and i haven't got time to write anything!

10 minutes in to the race and Newcomer Lee has a spin off and drops from 7th to 17th. But he goes back on again to try his best.

This is the most pro karters we have ever had! It's a new craze!

We have 3 newcomers racing tonight. They are Chris Harfield, Bad Lad Lee and J.H.Racing.
Banana Man Moss got blue flagged to let someone faster by and ended up backwards in the tyres by the traffic lights!

Bad Lad Lee after 40 minutes and with only 5 left comes in for some more fuel as he ran out. He only has a very little fuel tank, so it would be a good idea to invest in a bigger one!

Nick went out to start and finish his race but after 10 laps one of his wheels fell off so it wasn't much good!

Race 2

Kids-pole-Lee
Adults-pole-Banana Man

What a great start! We have 18 people starting this race. The other 3 have kart problems and can't be fixed in a short amount of time!

Steve is in the pits and he didn't even manage one lap! Someone hit in to him, which bent his axle i think he said. So there isn't much point him going back out there!

Charlie takes the lead.

Jake is back out there and racing having now fixed his track rod.

Banana Man is out of the race after 3 minutes. His chain had totally disappeared and that was that! And only 8 minutes had gone by!

T.S.R is sitting backwards in the tyres.

Steve Aldridge is currently racing for team Road Runner 2.

Fastest lap by Daniel on lap 14 with a 38.50.

Bad Lad Lee has tons of supporters out here yelling him on and he loves it!

21 minutes in to the race and Chris Harfield is out of the race. His kart limps in the pits and we find out that everything is bent e.g. the track rod and steering column.

Team Gary spun and Colin narrowly missed him.

Lee was dealt some good advice before he started this second race. He was told to stay calm, because getting angry doesn't help! Plus he was told just to do his best as you can't do any better than that!

Sean and Daniel are fighting for 1st and 2nd place. Their dads, Charlie and Colin are battling for 5th and 6th place.
