Another great day at Kirkistown yesterday with Formula Sheane, the circuit showed a lot of class with a minutes silence for David Sheane and the weather was perfect for flat out racing. I had some issues at Scrutiny where my belts were rejected due to being out of date (despite the extension of time agreed ), anyone racing at the circuit should note this..... massive thanks to Kevin and Philip Sheane who provided me with a new set clearing the car to race. On Saturday morning I managed to knock my head and the laceration just would not stop bleeding, the course doctor offered stitches and we settled on gluing the wound just in time for qualifying..... Richard won both races getting some luck in the last one when he broke a rose joint near the end, super drive as always from the man.... I had a lot to learn on my third time in the car and was guilty of many mistakes but I finished both races whilst having an absolute blast on a really fast circuit..... anyone considering single seater racing should at least look for a test in a Formula Sheane, fantastic cars that won't disappoint..... on to the International circuit at Mondello Park on 10th June where my education hopefully continues.....massive thanks to Richard and Dick for all the help and advice and for a brilliant car ....

Hello everyone,

It's been a while but we finally returned to the track this weekend in Mondello Park. Let's start by complementing Mondello Park and all their staff on a very well run event that was respectful and professional. To all the track Marshall's we cant thank you enough and to all the other Competitors who showed great care and respect for everyone, a massive thank you. It just shows that with good planning and willingness on peoples part these events can take place.

Now for the racing... Saturday saw Mike take to the track in the Vectra, qualifying was decent and pole position for race one with p2 for race two.... tyres were an issue as well as contact which pushed him down the field in race one with a 5th place finish.
Race two was scuppered by contact also which spun him out and he rejoined at the back of the field.... fantastic scrapping through the race resulted in 3rd place and the fastest lap.

Sunday saw Richard race for the first time in his beautifully prepared Fiesta ST... unfortunately gearbox issues arose in the first lap of qualifying which cut it short. The first race was missed as a result and following a replacement clutch to add to the gearbox issue he took his place at the back of the field for race two.... a great start and clever driving had him in the midfield 3 laps in but the the gearbox decided it didnt want to play and the day ended on a sad note after a considerable amount of work...

Massive thanks must go to our sponsors for their continued support in such troubling times and we are delighted to continue to work with AFEC, CJK, C Lee Engineering, Richard Kearney Engineering and KSN Project Management.

Our next event is 15th & 16th of August if all goes to plan, we raced this weekend behind closed doors and dont know yet what the landscape looks like going forward. We are delighted to be back and hope you all stay safe and well...

Take great care, wear the masks and look out for each other..... see you all soon.

Hi Folks,

Just want to put a stop to any rumours...... Sebastian Vettel will not be joining RK Racing as we consider his request for a 2 year deal as test driver to be excessive!!
