I know I'm jumping around with the video orders, but hey ho!
Race two at Cadwell was a real storming bout!
As we went out the rain started spitting down and the track was slick, but there wasn't any advantage to a wet line etc.......just suck it up and slither around.
Steve got a cracking start and I never force a solid maneuver at the start as its just a high risk move for club racing. However, that meant faffing around behind steve looking for gaps and pulling up track limit warnings. My pace was faster but ultimately passing around cadwell is incredibly hard without making contact or taking to the grass, and well, I like steve so I'm not about to punt him off or make a pass unless its fairly clean haha.
So, struggle on we did and I had eyed up a passing place through charlies which I thought was a good clear area to stick it up the inside as I had much more speed and could hold a tighter line to block pass into charlie 2.
Unfortunately on the last lap as my best chance came, my throttle snapped just as I hit the inside curb and that was that..........what a bleeding annoying way to go out. I'd of taken second place and the points happily, but wasn't to be.
Anyway, congrats to steve, he did a cracking job fending me off and covering all my attempts..........you did hog the middle of the road though, cheeky bugger.
