CIK Asia Pacific Heats In the 1st days racing, Matt strugged both with the tires and the cooling conditions. The pace that he had during the 1st 2 days of practise eluded him today. After qulaifing in 6th, he made a great start in the 1st heat to be up to 3rd when he was pushed wide in turn 2, dropping 6 places. He fought hard to make up 2 to finish in 7th. Heat 2 saw another strong start but this time he managed a moe to 5th. Overall a good drive but more pace needs to be found during the finals.
