Wera British Kart Championship 

Whilton Mill: Round 4

Qualifying went strong with P2 in the group, putting us P3 overall.

  • Heat 1: Started P2, dropped to P6 after struggling with a bent kart.
  • Heat 2: Ran P2–P6 on track, but a nose cone penalty dropped us back to P18.
  • Superheat: Started P9, but unfortunately had to retire after being driven over, leaving the exhaust loose.
  • Final: Lined up P24 and fought through the field to finish P6 on track — an incredible 18 places gained. A nose cone penalty left us classified P8.

Plenty learnt this weekend, and the pace was there to be fighting right at the front.
