Mt Gambier not a happy hunting ground for us.

Hi all,

Well we arrived in Mt Gambier last night ready to keep up our assault on Speedweek.

Kris again had trouble in hot laps, seems strange to me they put 12 cars out on these small tracks, it is ok for the guys who have raced here before but as a new team/driver it is hard to come to grips with a track when you cannot get in any fast laps due to traffic, but that's the way it goes.
Kris timed in at 29, again not good but ok considering there were 50 cars to run with.
Heat 1 had Kris out of 3 but the car was not set up right and we drifted out to end the heat last.
Heat 6 had Kris out of 4 and he went high going into turn 1, but a car spun in front of him and Kris checked the car up to avoid damaging the car, Steven Lines was not so lucky and hit Kris hard in the side, this resulted in some chassis damage and our night was done.
We spent the day fixing the car and are just about ready to head for Avalon, it will be good to get the car onto a bigger track again.

The team is pumped and really looking forward to our last 2 meetings of speed week.

Really looking forward to "The Muster" on the 2nd, this speedweek trip just gets the racing juices going.

Will keep you all updated over the next 3 days of our progress but looking forward to catching up at the muster.
