DIFFERING FORTUNES AT IAME INTERNATIONAL FOR AUSSIES

Inside the Aussie pit area at the IAME International in France

The Australian contingent have endured differing fortunes during the preliminary races at the IAME International event in France.

Western Australian Kip Foster will start out of second in the pre final of the X30 Masters category tomorrow. After being caught up in a couple of incidents, James Allen and Josh Crossingham will start from 24th and 33rd in the B Final of the Senior X30 category tomorrow.

Unfortunately for Scott Foster, he missed out on a place in the B Final when he was classified 76th. Both Foster and Allen have never driven front hand brake karts ever before and adapted themselves well across the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Crossingham has the fastest time out of the boys and should look forward to a good finishing position in the B final along with Allen who has the pace but only late in the race.

For Kip Foster, he is one of the favourites to win the Masters category if he can stay out of harms way.
