BIKC Regional Final - High Wycombe

🏁 BIKC REGIONAL FINAL – HIGH WYCOMBE πŸ†

What a rollercoaster of a day! 🀯πŸ”₯

The day started almost perfectly!

🏎️ Heat 1: Qualified P1 and won by 12 seconds! πŸ₯‡

🏎️ Heat 2: Another P1 and won by 7 seconds! πŸ₯‡

🏎️ Heat 3: P1 again and won by over 5 seconds! πŸ₯‡

🏎️ Semi-Final: Started P1 and took another win by over 7 seconds! πŸ₯‡

4 RACES, 4 WINS! πŸ’―πŸ”₯

Then came the FINAL… 😬

The groups merged and the super-fast Corey took pole, putting me P2. Unfortunately, I also drew the slowest kart of the day! (Which already had 2 complaints so shouldn’t of been in the fleet for kart selection)

As a top 3 we had plan was to stick together and qualify for the nationals, but that disappeared at the first corner.

I got dive-bombed, hit and pushed wide, dropping from P2 to P4! πŸ’” (lesson learnt)

I fought back before finally making a move into P3. But then came a 5 second penalty (for that move) with just 7 laps remaining!

Somehow, I turned a 1-second gap into 8 seconds by the chequered flag! So my penalty didn’t affect my position.

NATIONAL FINALS QUALIFIED! πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ†

I’m gutted how the final went (for a few reasons) after such an amazing day. Sometimes racing doesn’t go to plan, but you just have to keep going.

Massive well done to Corey and everyone racing!

NEXT STOP… WARRINGTON!
