FHM Win Karting Cup

The FHM Karting Team

The Gateshead Housing Company, together with Decent Homes Partners Gateshead LES, Morrison FS, FHM and our very own St Astier Team recently contended the St Astier Cup, hosted at the 1200M British Championship Circuit just outside of Seaham. With a total of 27 drivers in 60mph Thunderkarts, the action was fast and furous.

Each team was issued with their own ‘colours’ (Orange – St Astier, Blue – Gateshead Housing Company, Purple – Gateshead LES, Red – Morrisons and Green – FHM) to make racing as well as spectating that much more interesting.

We soon discovered that you can’t keep a good driver down. Despite our best efforts (we had five St Astier drivers in the A Final race) the FHM team cleaned up – Keith McDougal ran away with the top spot leaving the competition trailing in his wake; Kurtis Tarn streaked through the pack (from last place) to claim second position on the Winners Podium; and the rest of the FHM guys racked-up enough points to secure the Team Trophy.
