Result - 8th Overall - 2nd in class

Good results team Slick ego's. Unfortunately a few technical problems prevailed first position but that is Endurance racing. Most important thing was keeping it on the black stuff and gaining no self inflicting damage. Which we achieved. Just a pity that that Bucks cant sort out a few problems with karts. We'll get the top step next time. Bring the next challenge on.

Next Challenge Pro-Am Outdoor karting circuit - Yorkshire

One of the best challenges in karting is going to a new circuit and seeing how long it takes you to learn it and get on the pace. I love going to new circuits and see different track formations. Our next team events is at Tockwith in Yorkshire at the Pro-Am outdoor karting circuit. It is on an old airfield and looks rather basic compared to what we are use to (PFI and Buckmore) but we will give it a go.
