Racer Ready “If you want to watch exciting racing, watch the next generation of racers!”

Great article by Neil at Racer Ready here.

Like Neil says “Exciting Racing, and U12 close racing with less than three quarters of a second separating all five exciting talents”, suppose one of them is ME !

rr1To quote Racer Ready.

Mini racing or as it is now called, Under 12 and Under 10 racing, has found its niche with the format that was first tried out at the British Indoor Grand Prix Series a couple of years ago and then adopted across the country: … Two runs with the best time to count to determine the race winner. This great format gives the racers the opportunity to attack the course and not have to worry about coming out. The smiles from one young racer who crashed on the first run was just testamount to the fun that the racers were having.

The Under 12 boys race was hugely competitive and a large field of eleven racers saw Elliott Bennett take a narrow win from Joseph Thompson with Zachery Metheringham take third place after Harry Cosham took fourth with Lucas Ellis in fifth. This was close racing with less than three quarters of a second separating all five exciting talents.

Would like to thank Neil at Racer Ready for the great job he does (hopefully I might get more mentions now?), telling the races as they are with no punches pulled and the great photos (plus his race break banter according to my Dad).  If you don’t subscribe to his magazine, why not as its the best UK snowsport magazine out there !
