Well.. today ain't my day as I kept having leceh karts.
Heat 1 : Got kart #20. As soon as I went out for the warm-up lap.. instantly I know I can't win with this kart. There was no pick-up and also no top end. So right at the start.. everyone just ngap me only.. In the middle of the race, Emmy and Abdul Warith spun out. It took them a long time to recover, so I took their place. Else I reckon my kart will lead me to the last position.
Heat 2 : Got kart #13. This kart is better than kart #20. This kart has top end but no pick-up. Hahaha~ Bad luck. Try to throttle early, so that at least I can follow them to the 1st corner. But as soon as the green flag is waved, they just waved good-bye to me. Was at last place when I hear a loud exhaust coming in the front. Instantly, saying thank you to Captain M Razmyn A Rahman, knowing he will be pitting to change his kart. Emmy spun after that and I overtook her. But Emmy was catching up slowly lap by lap. And finally overtook me at the final lap. Nice run Emmy~
Final Heat : Don't know what to choose. So I just chose kart #13. Sadly the kart couldn't even start up. See how bad luck today. Anyway, after several tries and still couldn't start the kart, the mechanics asked me to change a kart quickly. Sorry guys, to make you guys run so many formation lap. But next time, I reckon just start the race after 3 formation laps. The show must go on. So there was kart #6. Start it up and just speed off. As soon as I came out, Emmy engine dies off. So another formation lap. Manage to overtake a couple of guys in the first lap and was at 3rd for the remaining laps. Saw the 1st and 2nd driver fighting for their place for a couple of laps.. and then it was just about maintaining that position, bring it home and not make any errors.
Overall : Wasn't a good day but indeed a nice race knowing no matter where I finish, I will be 1st in my category. And was happy to see my overall position change from 5th to 4th. (Dropped to 5th from 2nd after missing just one rd) Also seeing some other drivers chasing up with the points. Was a fantastic final with the K1 and K2 running together.. Should do it the next time. But with more planning this time. Good race.
