Round 3 Townsville Kart Club
First time in a big team, lessons were learned and fun was had. Thank you OTK Australia for this awesome opportunity.
After great practices thursday and friday I didnt manage qualifying well in the new kart and a new type of tyre I had never turned a lap on 🥹 Qualifed P1️⃣9️⃣ of 31 karts.
Heat 1 Made my way forward 🏁 P13
Heat 2 moved up to 15th then back to 18th then worked it to 🏁13 (+2 drop down) and busted my Rib in this one.
Heat 3🚦P14 finished 🏁 18 and I struggled to drive with the pain
Heat 4🚦P16 gave it my best and had issues with my chain 🏁 P24
Final🚦P19 moved forward all race despite the pain and lost 2 positions on the last lap to cross 🏁 in P1️⃣1️⃣
Finished the weekend in 1️⃣7️⃣th place overall and have moved up 2 places to be 1️⃣5️⃣th in the championship. Next stop Puckapunyal in Sep.
