Final round of the BMKR winter championship

Final round of the BMKR winter championship. Saturday was very wet and cold and Sunday was cold. Working out how to get the best of the tyres was a challenge this weekend. We didn’t reach our potential this weekend, only just making it into the top 10. We did however finish the championship in 8th place overall out of 25 drivers, so pretty happy with that as it was our first winter championship. Click here to read full article

Podium finish at LIKC Winter Round 4

It’s great to be back at Lydd Kart Circuit, after missing the last two rounds, for round 4 of the LIKC Winter Championship. Saturday practice was a constant battle with problems but we managed to work our way through them. Sunday didn’t start much better when we had a rear hub failure. Luckily we raced hard and had two 3rd place finishes and after an amazing drive a second place finish in the grand final. Click here to read full article
