On track action.

This great on track action shot is by Peter Wileman check out his website at http://www.racingdigitalimages.com/

Cadwell's mountain section is a great place to do a bit of 'show boating'. I quite like getting it a bit out of shape coming over the top, it's difficult to keep the wheel down and go quickly though!

Not according to plan.


Unfortunately the time table was changed and that meant that we were called to the holding area while the karts were still on track.
We did have to wait for quite a while, and all I can think is that my tyres cooled off.
Got a great start.
Gordon gets off the line like a rocket.

Leading the race - into the Goose neck - and down we went.

Chilling out.


Done a few laps this morning. Small problem. Seems like fourth gear is knackered as it keeps jumping out of gear. Oh well will have to try not to use it too much!

Disappointed.


Got a great start and led the race for the first four laps. Mark got past and then I took the lead again. Only to get the oil flag. Gordon was smoking big style. Steve stripped him down and luckily it was the cam chain tensioner bolt that had come un screwed! The air box had saved the day and contained it. Oh well we can do it all again tomorrow.

Qualifying.


Not a bad session.


Third fastest.


Alex on pole then Mark Lawes - we were all within two tenths of each other.

Big job broken out...

Popped up to the garage to check on Gordon today - just thought I would give him a wipe over in anticipation of racing the last two rounds of the championship at Cadwell Park this weekend.

Once I started on one little job, I noticed another. Then before I had finished that, there was another bigger job to do.... here I am hours later, and there still seems to be loads to do...
