That’s more like it!! After a slightly underwhelming start to 2021, I’m pleased to announce that having finished 3rd overall in the heavyweight class of the British Indoor Karting Championship’s delayed regional final, I have now qualified for the national final which is scheduled to take place on Saturday 5th of June at Teamsport Karting’s Warrington venue!
A field of 16 drivers took to an unfamiliar track to battle it out for a chance to qualify for the national final, and after a series of heat races where I managed to finish 1st, 6th and 3rd respectively, I qualified in third position for the ‘A’ final, where I was able to maintain position whilst pushing the 2nd-placed driver for the entire race (unfortunately without getting any real opportunities to make a clean pass). As nice as it would have been to have finished one step higher on the podium, it wouldn’t have made a world of difference to me with the top four going through to the final, but it was still nice to come away satisfied with my own performance- Particularly the heat one win on a track I’d only driven a handful of practice laps of previously.
That's all I have for you this week. I'll be sure to post another update after the final - Until then, take it easy!
