Ginetta Junior driver Cassey Watson would not usually be thrilled with qualifying 9th on the grid, but at Cadwell Park on Sunday that was the case after breaking an anti roll bar link early in the session leaving her with an extremely difficult car to drive.

Cassey said, “I set my fastest lap on my very last lap mainly due to the fact it took me awhile to work out how I was going to set a lap time in a car that didn’t want to turn left. I have to be pleased, this is a tricky circuit and I certainly didn’t make my job any easier for myself.”

With the car repaired the RDA student made an excellent start to race 1, eventually joining in a 4 car race for 3rd, as the quickest car of the group Cassey managed to move up to 4th with the chequered flag coming too soon for her to make a move on, son of Damon, Josh Hill for the podium.

Unfortunately race 2 saw a repeat of the earlier problems in qualifying leaving Cassey in a battle to hold onto her start position, “I think I’ve been a little over zealous with the kerbs today”, a disappointed Cassey said, “this is the first time I’ve raced at Cadwell and that is a lesson I’ve learnt for next time.”

Cassey won’t have to wait long to try and make amends as the Ginetta Juniors return to the BTCC package next weekend at the fabulous Rockingham Speedway in Corby.
