Records tumble including the big one!

This Guernsey Kart & Motor Club hill climb was notable for several reasons. Firstly it was hot and sunny! Always a good start!

Secondly it was a record breaker... and Nick Saunders went for 'gold' with his overall Kart Club record for Les Val des Terres with a time of 27.26sec.

This is an astonishing time but Nick deserves the accolade as he has been chipping away and slowly modifying his car. Nick now has to look at beating a 26.99sec time - the all-time hill record set by 'Nationals' driver Scott Moran at a Car Club National event.

That time is tantalizingly close. Not even Darren Warwick has bettered that one. But watch this space!

Other record breakers were John Dunne, Sam Heathcote and Lee Poole. Well done guys.

The pic at the top of this Blog features two record breakers for the price of one! Local legend John Dunne watches Nick Saunders (also a local legend) head to the line for another run.
