On Sunday, it was back to Raceland for the penultimate round of the endurance championship. Qualifying was on a damp track, with fourth being my starting point. For the next 90 minutes it was flat out racing with an eventual finish of 2nd, some 12 seconds down on Michael and 23 ahead of Lewis. They've moved to a harder, more durable tyre and it seems to have pretty much equalised the performance of the karts, with the fastest lap, by me, only 2/100ths quicker than Michael who in turn was 4/100ths quicker than Lewis/Brett (they run 45 mins each whereas Michael and I run the full 90mins on our own). It turns out that the Neanderthals had tried to book in for the event, using a differnt booking name, but the staff at Raceland weren't fooled,so they were refused entry - There were no incidents during the race and the slower drivers were great at letting the leaders through. A fun day.

On Wednesday, I'm off to Bedford Autodrom for a day of automotive hooning in some seriously quick cars........
