Afternoon of Go-karting for pupils
A sunny Sunday 6 November, saw 28 competitors – comprising of staff, boarders and day pupils – travel to Caernarfon for an afternoon of Go-karting.
Each competitor took part in two trial runs to secure the top five fastest laps. Initially three Netherton racers – last year’s winner Max Abt, Hendrik Schabsky and Oscar Sanchez – put up the three fastest times from their race. Good second runs from Ben Schmolck and Ronnie Mueller (both from Walshaw) and Leonard Frings (Netherton) saw them overtake Oscar’s time and join Hendrik and Max in the Grand Prix final.
The Grand Prix final, saw Max get away to a fine start and was never threatened by the other racers, and even managed to lap the fifth placed kart. Congratulations to Max for securing his third successive victory.
Final result:
Winner: Max Abt Netherton
2 Ben Schmolck Walshaw
3 Leonard Frings Netherton
4 Hendrik Schabsky Netherton
5 Ronnie Mueller Walshaw
Congratulations to the top junior racer, Anton Shubka who finished in 6th place overall and to the top girl, Carla Voit who finished 11th. A special mention goes to the competing teachers, with Miss Cater securing a top ten finish and Mrs Cashell a respectable 13th!
