Lap records were dropping like crazy this weekend. The new MG greens were hooked up. I even ran a used set of MG FZ's (the new yellows) in one practice session and was amazed at the grip.
I qualified 8th in Masters with a 33.524 (pole was 32.942) and 16th in Moto with a 33.582 (pole was 32.833)
I turned a fast lap of 32.8 in the Masters race, finished fourth and got DQ'd for being 3lbs light >:
I turned a fast lap of 32.5 in the Moto race and finished 10th. Oh btw, I was 15lbs over at the scales for the Moto weigh in with the same kart and same amount of fuel. Go figure!!
Needless to say I was pissed as hell but driving home I thought to myself, there were some pretty bad wrecks and a lot of blown up motors...my stuff was still together and didn't have a scratch on it (well just one when I kissed the tech pro barrier with my rear wheel :lol ) and I was in one piece so what was I complaining about. I had the time of my life and beat some pretty good talent this weekend. It's all good.
