🔴 Here at Harry Holland Racing we have some very exciting news to share with you all, for 2025, 😁
with some very tough negotiations 🧐 over the last few months, I now have got Reece Lomax as my mentor for all of 2025, and the Calender is going to be very explosive to say the least,
so watch this space!!! 👀
We started the new year at PFI TVKC ice braker Round,
We were all buzzing with the new arrival to the team I.e Reece Lomax,
But what was about to happen this weekend we had no idea but we all pulled together as a great team
We all headed of to PFI on Thursday night to get ahead of the game I.e to get some practice time in, on the Friday
ready for the weekend,
But this was about to change very fast, 🙈
On making sure everything was a 100% correct the evil eye of Reece lomax spotted a huge problem with the kart!!!
The chassis had a crack/brake In the way that it could not be used/raced for the weekend, with alot of head scratching and a few phone calls, Derek Walker the CEO of leading solvents supply's limited came to the rescue, along with Warwick from strawberry racing limited who managed to supply a new chassis, but that was the start of it all,
The next challenge was how do we get a new chassis to the track??
Everyone was flat out, so the only way to make everything happen was for Reece lomax to drive my dad back home to pick up another car then to drive to strawberry racing limited in Sheffield to pick up a new chassis then to take it to PFI, this obviously soaked up alot of time so the intended practice day on the Friday didn't happen,
Saturday Practice we were still struggling to get the kart ready as my seat needed fitting, with all the pressure we ended up having to fit my old seat to my new kart!! Rendering i missing my first practice session on the Saturday!!!
So All sorted,
Second Practice session went well considering it was a brand new chassis,
third session we hit another problem while everything had been checked and the kart started in designated area, when the kart was on the dummy grid it failed to start!!!
It ended up been a starter motor problem, even tho the weather was against us and so was the timing Reece lomax had no choice but to fit my best race engine, not what we wanted considering the weather conditions,
on the qualifying i managed to qualify 15th out of 57 karts, not to bad for a new chassis that we didn't know how it wouldn't behave, as all chassis are different
Sunday warm up we hit yet another problem the engine just wouldn't start yet again but we did repair my starter motor and we put my wet engine back on, it has been one of those weekends!!!,
So yet again dad/ Reece Lomax had no choice to put my best engine back on, again not what we wanted, i did my usual and got into the A final with flying colours happy day's,
it looked like we were now going in the right direction at last
The final
The weather was against everyone. the wet tyres weren't brilliant so we opted to fit a brand new set (then we released it wasn't the best option we all made but thsts racingfor you)
On the rolling start my throttle stuck flat out rendering me having to run off the track avoiding causing accident so i ended at the back of the grid,
I managed to sort myself get back onto the track , then i managed to get from last to a good way up into the rest of the race drivers but then he got fired off by another driver!!!
putting me at the back of the race yet again!!!
In the end i finished 27th out of 34 karts on grid, overall it was a huge challenge that was thrown at us all
but as we do as a team brush ourself down and move on to the next race.
