AUST Formula Vee 2008 -Rnd1 PI Race 1- Tim Hamilton[part2/2]

[Part 2 of 2. See below for links to previous parts]
Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, Victoria, Australia.
2008 Formula Vee Australian National Series (Round 1, June 15) at Shannons Nationals Motor Racing Championships.
Onboard from Tim Hamilton.
Race 1, 6 Laps, damp track. Starts 4th. Finishes 7th (2nd fastest lap time).

29 Vees lined up for the first race of the 2008 National season on a damp and slippery Phillip Island.

After a poor start, Tim collides with Victorian David Frith at Turn 6 (resulting in steering damage), then later has a self-induced spin at 'The Hay-shed'. With many competitors falling off the slippery track, Tim survives for 7th. Not a good race!


1st - Daniel Reinhardt (Black Sabre 2005) FL= 2:04.76*
2nd (+0.52s) - Benjamin Porter (White Checkmate 2007) FL= 2:06.99
3rd (+13s) - Kieran Glover (Orange Jacer 1996) FL= 2:08.40
7th (+27s) - Tim Hamilton (Green Jacer F2K8 2008) FL= 2:06.05
