Another great write up on the U10 and U12’s taking part in the European Championships by Neil at Racer Ready. Read the article here.
“the two run race with best time to count format for the Under 12 and Under 10 age groups gave the racers plenty to think about and the opportunity to not worry about making a mistake as only the best time would count. … The Andrew Hjortt set course had many of the same combinations that the racers will meet when they make the step up to the next level in the future but with the stubbies rather than the large gates.”
“Joseph Thompson from Norwich was the only racer to go under the magic fifteen second mark on either run and was a worthy winner of the race – fastest on both runs! Harry Cosham took second place and Elliott Bennett took third ahead of Zachary Metheringham with Lucas Ellis in fifth.
With the indoor racing season at Snozone in Castleford now having come to an end for summer 2014, Graham and Cathy Beck have decided to step back and let others take over the running of the races. After 20 years of sorting out, organising and running the races, next summer will see some new faces helping out. Many thanks to both for the hard work and support in getting summer racing at the indoor slopes to this level. The sport has moved on and the indoor races are taking the sport forward. Many current racers including the likes of Dave Ryding, Jai Geyer and others have taken part in the Beck organised races.”
Thanks for the mention Neil.
