The May meeting was nothing to write home about at all really. Sam was in heats 1,3 and 4 so a quiet morning and busy afternoon. Heat 1 saw Sam plummet from 11th to 19th on the first lap, the result of the usual first corner chaos before taking 1 place back from another drivers bad luck.

Heat 3 was perhaps worse again. Sam was in his high grid spot (P3) for this meet and was doing ok in the first few laps, losing just two places dropping to 5th. On lap 3 though kart 88 went into the gap Sam left around the fast Esses corner, unfortunately when Sam closed the gap there was contact and off Sam went. Now down in 17th Sam was pretty upset but clawed one place back to finish in 16th.

Heat 4 was the best racing to watch as Sam battled with his friend Aaron through the first 4 laps. In the end he finished where he started in 17th. Sam had his fastest lap of the day in this heat, a respectable 47.83 just 3 tenths off the heat winners fastest lap.

With little prospect of reaching the A Final, Sam started the B Final in 8th of 12 starters. Sam dropped 2 places by the second lap but got one back on lap 3. Another error for kart 8 got Sam another spot back to finished again where he had started.
