Thumbs up STOTFOLD RACE REPORT COMING

Hi Guys,

I will be putting up the Race Report up here soon. Didn't have a chance to go and speak to everyone as I was in a lot of pain and struggling on pain killers so apolgies. (I wasn't being grumpy because I had to get up at 4am)
Lewis was busy with his X11 - no he didn't race he was pit bitch for someone else.

hi there a quick report from me

round 1 first brake of the season { so not to bad lol } rear lower arm 4 laps in
round 2 second brake of the season front lower arm not even 1 lap in
round 3 needed to finish so just a nice steady run but nothing special was strugling for turn in
round 4 i moved the blue front cone to under the arm after speaking to northy and the car was alot better pushed abit harder and felt good just struggled with not having spent to much time on the track
final was in bottom final quilfied 5th set of and soon took up second place behind jonsey which is f2 driver { just unlucky on the day } and we had a little tussel for abit then he pulled away so the final was my best race of the day ALL IN ALL FOR MY FIRST YEAR AT NATIONALS IVE REALLY ENJOYED IT AND HAS BEEN GREAT FUN HOPE I GET IN FOR NEXT YEAR

A big thanks from me to Lewis and Yanina for the loan of EVERYTHING, it was an arrive and drive day for me, which was odd.

My honest impression of the car is, it has massive potential and i could do very quick individual laps which is unusual for me as i am usually mr steady not preddy . But i found that if i got it slightly wrong it chewed me up and spat me out. ( i know the simple answer is dont get it wrong)

After speaking to Nathan he said that this is what they will be working on over the winter, so i am sure they wil have an excellent base to start from come next April.

The car got better throughout the day, but i drove like a nob in the final and didnt do the car justice as it was easily the fastest car on the track lap for lap and when you got it right you knew it was a quick one and it felt very rewarding.

Thanks again.

Lee

You qualified 3rd Shane, you also forgot to mention how you lead the race! Don't worry though, you've been featured on the oOple race report and its a bigger write up with more photos than any A final.
