Round 7 - Pukekohe - Race 1

Definitely an exciting first race, full of action! Unfortunately none of it went Dale's way, starting on the very first corner when he went looking for a gap he was spun off the track and ended up at the back of the pack. He made great progress to regain position, and was helped along when a major crash (again on the first corner) red-flagged the race and Dale was in 15th spot on the grid at the restart.

Unfortunately when chasing down Andy Knight Dale came off at the hairpin, and he lost ground again, finishing the race in 16th place.

So the team knows he has the speed, now all he needs is a little luck on his side and Dale should be bringing in a better result for the final two races of the season at Pukekohe tomorrow.
