Barossa Go Kart Club – Nuriootpa  – 7/2/2015

The second race for Jimmy for the year was held at the Barossa Go Kart Club in Nuriootpa.

This was a different format for racing, with the grid being determined by random draw, and reversed in the second heat.  Starting order in the third heat was based upon finishing positions in the first 2 heats, with the start order in the final based on points from all three previous heats.

With a number of P platers in the field, Jim started from second in the first 2 heats.  He raced well to win both heats and capture pole for the third heat.

Jim won the third heat, giving him pole for the last race.  Jim started well in the last heat, and drove away to win, giving him a clean seep of the heats and the win for the meet.

Jim would like to thank his sponsor Iocane, and all those who helped over the weekend.
