Red Flagged @ Camberley Practice

Today my practice was cut short after spinning off and crashing into the barrier at top speed. I took a corner too fast and was unable to get my kart back on track as I hit the grass and lost control. Unfortunately I hurt my hand pretty bad and was taken off the track in an ambulance, here I was given a splint and my arm was held up with a sling. I was no longer allowed on the track. Instead I had to go for an X-ray! Just some bad swelling and bruising, but no break thankfully. I should be racing next week.
Fastest time around the track today was 27.06 x

I'm off my novice plates

My first time off my novice plates didn't go as planned. My practice lap was hard as I had no air in my tyres (whoops) the other laps didn't get much better after a couple of overtakes I just couldn't get my speed consistent and fell behind, finishing LAST.
Better luck next time.
Off track was however loads of fun I've made some great friends and I'm enjoying my time at the track more and more!!

120 round the hairpin :)

Today I had a Trill Ride Experiance at Silverstone. I went in a Caterham 7.

Bye Bye Novice Plates

I've got all my 5 signatures for my races now so it's off with the black and white plates and onto yellow and black. It's a big deal as I know longer have to start at the back if I get a good qualifying time :)
However no longer a novice means i have greater expectations on my racon so hopefully tomorrow I will give all I have, drive well and get close to the top runners! Check back tomorrow to see how I get on.... Fingers Crossed xx
