Joel competed in the Wollongong Kart Club Races at Eastern Creek over the weekend and took 2nd place overall.

Having only been there once before, and competing against a number of drivers that drive the track all the time, Joel qualified 3rd on race day for the heats.  He was quite competitive in the first couple of heats

Finishing 4th and 5th respectively, before being bumped off the track in the 3rd heat resulting in a DNF.  The finishes combined, resulted in a 7th place start position for the final.  He gained 3 positions on the start before working his way up to 2nd with a number of laps to go.  First place was just out of his reach this time.

Well done Joel!
