JTSE karting report

Post by Stu160 » Sun Aug 05, 2007 11:15 pm

Hi All

I am sure most of you know,but earlier this year,I spat the dummy,and sold Stevens kart as he was being a wee sh'#e .
Well,after 2 months of not talking about karting at all,he asked me last month if he could do the NKRA finals,which is a national championship he was in ,and was still leading the regional points in.
He has sorted his self out ,and is now just an pest instead of the bloody nightmare he was ( only kidding ) so I agreed,on the condition I can see a halo above his head all th time.

So,last month,he won the regional heats,and was (2nd in the race )at Larkhall and is now the scottish NKRA champion.

Today,he got his first win at Larkhall, in the wet,so I am well chuffed.We have won many heats ,and have been so close to a victory many times there,but it just hasnt happend,its a hard track.

He also beat his old kart as well,so quite a sweet win.

So,2 weeks time we have the Scottich open,up in Banff.Not been up there this year,so dont think we have a chance,but you never know.Then 6 weeks to the NKRA finals at Larkhall,again,one of the older boys has entered for the finals,so its going to be tough to win on the day,but he has a huge point advantage so hope we can still pull off a national championship.

:thumbsup

Well done to Stephen, and to you Stu for providing and prepping a kart that he can get results on.

Hope he keeps the head screwed on as hes obviously got potential.

Glad to hear he's back in the game - perhaps he now realises you're serious and he realises how much he wants to race.

All good mate, all good :thumbsup

I guess Lewis and Anthony had their fall-outs too, from time to time ;-)

Full respect to both you and Steven - best of luck with rest of the season.
