BECCLES & DISTRICT KART CLUB

CLUB MEETING 26th August 2002

CADET

Craig Boyd started the final from pole position and led the cadets round on lap 1 being closely followed by Nick Wones, Ben Beeseley, Luke Branch and Oliver Hodgson. Boyd and Wones pulled clear of the pack and on lap 5 Wones made his move and took the lead, Boyd challenged for the final 10 laps but couldn't find the extra ounce of power to get past leaving Wones to take the win. Beesely came 3rd ahead of Hodgson 4th, Kieran Smith 5th and Luke Branch 6th. 1st restricted went to Charlotte Wones.

HONDA CADET & WTP CADET

In the WTP Nicholas Lucas drove a great race to take the win ahead of Jake Baker 2nd and Sam Beeseley 3rd.  Honda Cadet winner was Conner Summers.

JUNIOR TKM AND MINIMAX

Ryan Cole led the Juniors away with Jamie Bardwell and Peter Hargreaves in hot pursuit but on lap 2 a mistake saw Hargreaves drop to the back of the field. Cole opened up a comfortable lead over Bardwell who was then passed by Danny Fiske. On lap 8 an accident brought out the red flags although fortunately no one was badly injured, this meant there would be a 6-lap sprint to the flag. Cole yet again pulled clear and this time took the chequered flag ahead of Fiske 2nd, Ashley Ruggles 3rd, Dean Hill 4th, Tommy Eustace 5th and Ashley Beales 6th. 1st restricted went to Oliver Thorpe in 7th with Stuart McClinton 2nd in 12th and Tristam Macro 3rd in 13th. Aston Baker drove well to take the win in the Minimax. The club is looking to attract more Minimax drivers so if you have one and fancy a race please give us a look at Ellough Park.

JUNIOR TKM INTERMEDIATE

Ruth Senior and James Blyth have been glued together this season with very rarely any distance between them on the track and today was no exception with Senior taking a fine win after a hard fought battle. Matthew Drew drove a good race to take 3rd with Daniel Laddiman 4th, Ricky Johnson 5th and Adam Blackmore 6th. Daniel Purton was 1st restricted in 11th.

JUNIOR ROTAX, J.I.C.A AND YAMAHA

In the Junior Rotax it was Clark Randall who pulled away for a very big win, Robin Shute came in 2nd (1st restricted), Rory Brodie 3rd (2nd restricted), Sarah Freeman 4th and Penni Stanton 5th (3rd restricted). Matt Sampson followed the Rotax home in his Yamaha with Dominic Thorpe's gamble of going out on wets not paying off as he came in last in his J.I.C.A.

SENIOR ROTAX & LEOPARDS

A slight drizzle during the Rotax final saw many of the favoured drivers going off but Gordon Chennery used his many years of experience to hold off the challenge of Jason Baker to take the win. Baker himself pulled out a large gap over Gavin Petty 3rd, Mark Bowen 4th, Carl Hunnibell 5th and Mark Rowe 6th. 1st restricted went to Simon Smart. 
Bryan Lely took the win in the Leopards ahead of Kevin Silcock.

SENIOR TKM

The TKM race started with 3 karts getting tangled up on the first corner and losing a lot of ground, This left Stuart Jiggins in the lead with John Roberts challenging him. These 2 however couldn't match the pace of Jason Thurlow who got passed and pulled away for the win, Nathen Roberts managed to come through for 2nd with Kym Ely 3rd. 4th went to John Roberts (1st restricted), 5th Richard Sewell and 6th Ben Tyler.
