Karting Campillos 30H - Race Start & Top 7 battle

Karting Campillos 30 hours: P14 / 48 !!! Joined up with Panthaa Racing for this very tough race against World's best Endurance Teams. Target was Top 15 but with so many strong teams even that was a challenge. Didn't help the race was in 2 directions and our drivers had less than 30 mins to train per direction on new track. Luckily we had a good kart to start off with. Bran took Q1 and put it in P3 which was top class performance !!! Daniel took Q2 and put us in P8. Q3 was a 1 lap qualify and Lucas put us in P9. Bran took the start and quickly got P7. He then managed to stay with top group and finished first hour in P5 (watch this video), only secs from P1. Again top class performance !!! Next 6 stints Daniel and Lucas alternated, followed by Bran. Even with few slower karts, after 6 hours into the race we were only 25 secs from the winning team and P10-P12 so looking very good. Mid race, after 15 hours of racing, a safety kart procedure was introduced (see next video) to switch directions. All teams were scrambling to put in additional pitstops. Worst position is to be P1 on track as everyone will gain time on you. We gained some time on our direct competitors. Lucas took this stint and survived the chaos of the restart quite well, especially considering he only had 24 mins of training in this reverse direction on Friday. Unfortunately the reverse direction proved to be a bigger challenge for most teams. We lost significant time over night as the karts were clearly degrading, and we didn't have much luck getting good enough karts to fight back. Near the end we were P16/P17 but close enough to P14/P15 to challenge them. Bran took the final stint and with again a great performance caught up and overtook our direct competitors so we could finish P14 !!! Shout out to all the staff of Karting Campillos for a truly great event: race director, marshalls, mechanics, catering, everyone was given it their best for the full 30 hours. Pitstops were smooth every time, mechanics joking with drivers while making sure everything runs smoothly. Penalties may be harsh but fair. And where else can you get a cappucino and sandwich at 4am in the morning? Congrats to the Podium: P1 GKOC Levelap - P2 Levelap GKOC - P3 Eiriz Pro And thanks to Panthaa Racing for inviting us.
