Grand Genk










Saturday


Heat: 1
Weather: Dry
Track: Dry but greasy
Started: 7th
Finished: 2nd
Report:
I had a great start making 4 or 5 places. After about 3 laps I was in the lead but, I did not have the pace and Danny Harwood caught up to the back of me and shot passed me in the first corner. I followed him away but just did not have the pace to overtake him. A good start to the weekend.

Heat: 2
Weather: Dry
Track: Getting gripper
Started: 16th
Finished: 2nd
Report:
The start was manic people were crashing all over the place I was lucky to get through and made a shed load of places. I was up to about 5th place by the first lap and just got my head down and caught the leader. On the last lap I caught Danny again but just settled for second.

Heat: 3
Weather: Dry
Track: Dry
Started: 15th
Finished: 6th
Report:
At the start I got pushed wide into my team mate which the unlucky for us both. I was about 16th after the first lap and picked them off one by one. With about 3 laps to go I got into 7th and just managed to get one more person. Not a great finish.

Heat: Final
Weather: Dry
Track: grippy
Started: 3rd
Finished: 2nd
Report:
I followed Danny of the line and got into second after the first corner. I saw Callum Bowyer behind me i knew if I did not overtake Danny, I would have been over taken by Callum.
After 3 laps I had pulled out a big gap but around the back corner I dropped it off the track and 3 people got passed me. With about 2 laps to go I got back into the lead but Callum got me straight back and I just missed out by 0.07 of a second over the line but over all good points. Callum drove a good race so I was happy with second.
