Todd Road April Club Day

This event marked 1 year of me racing. This was also my first event at Todd Road. I was racing in Ka4 Junior Heavy with Ben Taylor #22, Ben Moss #11, Johnny Hill #88 and Cooper Fletcher #92p. We had carby issues for the event which was dissapointing. Huge thank you to Mark Johnstone from Anarchy Kartsport for lending me his carby for heat 3 and the final. The heats were 8 laps and the final 9.
For Qualifying, I was trying to tune the carby but I couldn't get it right. I Qualified 4th.
For Heat 1, We still had carby problems but Igot a good start and got to 3rd until Ben Moss passed me on lap 2. Finished 4th.
For Heat 2, I still had carby problems and I finished 4th.
For Heat 3, I now had Mark's carby on and I got a great start and got into 2nd! Looking at the footage, I should and could of gone for 1st. I stayed 2nd until lap 3 Where Ben Taylor passed me and then lap 5 where Ben Moss passed me.
For the Final, I started 4th and got into 3rd off the start and stayed there until lap 2 where Johnny passed me. Ben T came in underweight but the officials didn't notice.
Overall, it was a good weekend, I was pitting with Toby Waghorn (#84 Jnr. Light) and for some reason had to run #8 instead of #18.
