Well it was more than a shower early. It was a bit of rain in first practice but then full on rain for the 2nd practise.

Then a long wait for the kart classes to have their endures but it got dry and sunny for ours.

Congrats to Caleb, the Fish/Chris combo and then Andrew. All finished within a few seconds on the track.

Hard days racing. Interesting day with two wet runs then an hour in the dry although cool. Caleb and I both went solo after our riding partners didn't come out on the day! I thought it would be no problems but still feeling it today. The race didn't start that well in that the bike didn't start first push. When it did go it leaped into what felt like a good wheelie. I like that (MNZ OFFICIALS HOLD YA BLACK FLAGS DOWN) then into it. Caleb was going hell for leather and pulled away a little. After 5 minutes when the pits opened I went in for my first stop and run up the hill. Caleb came in just after me. When he came back out he was having trouble starting his bike so I was ahead of him. At the half hour mark pulled in for gas and another run. Big thanks to Estelle for looking after the refueling pit stop and time keeping. For the next lap or two yelling and gasping from the effort of the run! Caleb ran quicker as he got out in front of me. I put the hammer and passed him. The legend Fishy caught up and passed me I tried to hang with him. The gap got bigger and smaller depending on lapped traffic. When the flag came out and I finished man I was saw. It was A good hour. Hopefully I didn't upset anyone with any of the passes.
Thanks to Fishy and the lap scorers for all the effort you put into it.
