GREENPOWER

A busy day at the final

Right from the start we had 'Dash' our newest scratch built car start well and perform well all day. However 'keep up' our best performing car only made it to the first corner on practise.

We thought we had fixed the problem for 'Keep up' for the first race but 4 laps in it died again and had to be recovered. Problem solving this issue became a real challenge and it took us 2 and a 1/2 hours to pretty much re-wire the car ready for race two. This was worth the effort as it was flying in race 2 and got up to 4th at one point but sadly had another issue at the end and lost quite a few places but still finished 12th. There has been 178 cars that have raced this season so a good place to be.

'Dash' as mentioned did well in race one and race two.  To qualify for this Final we placed 32nd of 80 cars this season and only the top 34 qualify. So we were happy with any result but we came 22nd overall so ten places better than we qualified so a real improvement!
