Great drive by Lucas Oil Products UK and Lucas Oil USA Driver Albert Carter at the 3rd round of the Smallfield Raceway Junior Productions Championship.
After missing round 2 due to Show commitments for Sponsors, it was back to business for the young Carter who needed to score points at this round to get back in the chase.
A misfire that developed in Heat 1 held Carter back but he showed determination and managed to limp to a win. We made some changes but still a misfire in Heat 2.
A big thank you to Frankie West who came over before the final and gave us a spare throttle body to try.
The final was a great race with the misfire gone but still not proper power as the engine wasn’t reving round correctly. This was a good drive by Albert with the engine as it was and he carried the car, was sharp and making up time under braking and corners – a really good drive to get a close 2nd place and more much needed points.
Thank you to Lucas Oil, NGK Spark Plugs (UK), Teng Tools Colin North, Rainbow Conference Sets, Pioneer Central Sue Binden, VEIDEC, Corbeau Seats UK, CAAR David Owen, Yuasa Batterys, Ultimate Air Brush Richard Carman
Thank you to everyone at Smallfield Raceway 2017 for putting on a great race meeting.
Also thanks to anyone that is giving Albert support and encouragement, it is appreciated.
