2009 - Looking Forward

Well, it's been a while - I should have been racing at Crail last weekend, but missed it for two reasons: I didn't know about the meeting, and my team mate has decided to sell his kart, leaving me without a drive. His reasons are fully understandable - I knew he wasn't as commited last year and now I know why, so not much to say on that front, but it does mean I need to try to figure out what to do now. It's unlikely that I'll find a regular drive at Crail, so I need to look elsewhere. It also looks like the Britcar 24 hour race at Silverstone will not happen this year, so maybe I can funnel some of the cash for that into another series. I've already set the ball rolling, so more news soon (I hope).

While I'm trying to figure out the racing plans, I'll be joining the folks from PistonHeads on their inaugural day at Palmersport's Bedford Autodrome on March 21st. There's also the possibility of a 24 hour kart race in Dubai the following weekend, and another 6 hour kart enduro in France in April.

So I should be racing something, somewhere, sometime (soon?).
