Oscar Mallett Racing

It's just gone live 😊
Now I move onto the GYG video which took place a week later. And then onto Grid Series Rd5.
Never ending masses of editing 🥵😂

Please give us a subscribe... there is zero financial gain from the countless hours I put into Oscar's social media presence, sometimes 30 hours per week and the truth is I am on my knee's financially only able to keep Oscar on track through other's support.

A subscribe is free and it truly means the world to me.

Thankyou, Lee.

August 23rd 2022, Oscar's very first time in a kart, a one off session at Teamworks Halesowen.
We raced together, both of us zero experience, Oscar destroyed me 😯
No practice, no coaching, nothing, he doesn't even watch any motorsports and comes from a family with zero motorsports history or understanding other than his grandad likes a bit of F1 on the tv.
Oscar is simply just a pure, raw and natural untrained talent and everything he has so far achieved is completely down to his own effort, commitment and talent.

This journey for us both has been life changing, life improving! It's given us a focus and goals we can work on together. It's given us weekends away, amazing father/son times and moments we'll forever cherish.

It's also been a defining factor in Oscar breaking free of the shackles laid upon him (upon both of us) by a very corrupted and cruel family law system which tried to force Oscar to remain living in hiding from us all out of the city with his other parent until he was atleast 16.
The fact his other parent prevented him from karting, from living this experience became the defining factor in him finding his strength in Dec 2024 to come back to live with me and scrap the family court power over him after 7 & half years of control over him and denial of him chasing his passion.

We'll forever be hugely grateful for this journey, for the people we've met and became friends with along the way, for the confidence that this has given Oscar upon finally gaining his freedom, this has been massive!

To everyone that follows and supports us please know that you're supporting much more than just a boy doing what he loves, you're supporting a father, son, nan & grandad who are all flourishing while making up for many lost years.

Thankyou, Lee ❤️

Last night we partnered with Andrew...the owner of Custom Racewear who made Oscar's new suit 😎

It was TeamSport Karting's Sidekick 'team' event and we had booked on for only our 2nd member's night of the year at Birmingham to support our friend Charley Dawson (CDKarting) as he made his debut in a senior Teamsport event and hopefully we could help him get his first Teamsport trophy.

It was a shock when we arrived to find out Teamsport had already decided who the teams would be which would put an end to our plans yet still make for an exciting 'anybody can win it" event as it meant the fastest racers there now couldn't team up, so we had a better chance.

Andrew then introduced himself upon spotting Oscar's suit and asked "is Oscar fast?" 😂 I replied "he's the track record holder" and he said "ok that'll do then" 🤣

This was his first time on this track so we gave him a few track tips for hot lapping and for defending and the event got underway.

Oscar would have a difficult qualifying session, he just couldn't find any clear space on track and he finished in P7 of 18 with Andrew finishing P16 of 18...but Andrew was given the dreaded kart #37, he never stood a chance, it's 1.3s a lap off the pace of an average kart, and even in his first ever race on this track he knew he had a dodgy kart.

Race 1, 20 minutes.
This time it was Oscar's turn to get a dog of a kart and when one of the other members found a way past him there were raptures of cheers from across the track from a group of other parents seing Oscar loose the position. Oscar finished P8 down from P7, and we don't know what happened, because what was on the leaderboard ceryainly didn't happen, but there it was...Andrew had finished P1 🤷🏻‍♂️😂 (he was further back behind us, oh well, we'll take it).

Race 2, 20 minutes.
Oscar now got a "yeah it was ok" kart, and he made 3 positions in 3 seperate moves in 1 lap, he was flying!
He got up to P3 but then on came 1 or 2 yellow lights and a large gap to the drivers behind unfairly and instantly dissapeared! Teamsport just don't punish this unfortunately, and it would cost Oscar.
Back to racing and (I need to review the footage) under pressure from the racers that had closed in behind Oscar thinks he fouled the racer ahead, it caused that driver to come to a stop and Oscar to spin out loosing a position or two.
The race was halted for 4-5 minutes, time that was deducted from the session and although Oscar had had the pace on the same driver who had overtook him in the first race and would again close the gap on him the race then dissapointingly ended.
Oscar finished P4 and Andrew, who's race I couldn't watch finished a very respectable P11.

It meant overall our team had finished P3 of 9 teams and we made the podium in 3rd spot.

A fantastic night of racing filled with drama, coffee, a sprinkling of trophies and nan & grandad's ongoing support, just how we like it 😁

Over 2 years in the making 🤯...

At Teamsport Birmingham last night Oscar finally got the opportunity to attack our friend Jayden Steatham Racing on track, a former BIKC national finalist, he's also a Mr Karting champion, he beat us in last years Daytona Tamworth Inkart Championships and is very close to us in the current Club100 championships.

We've raced on track with Jayden more than ANY other person over the last 2+ years, yet we've never had an opportunity to attack him and the things that have happened to prevent this opportunity (as is even evidenced in our new Club100 video going live on Youtube at 6pm tonight) have been so unbelievable it's almost as if there are higher forces at play!

But last night it happened, Oscar had a full 10 minutes in a very good kart in the junior Grid Series round 5 final to put the pressure on Jayden and it's the most pressure I've ever seen him put anyone under.

Oscar starting in P5 with Jayden starting in P1 you would think was a formality. And then we spotted it, Oscar was given kart #13, the kart which had seen another driver run away with the lead in the earlier qualifying session. I shouted down to Oscar "you've got a good one" but he couldn't hear me as he headed out onto track. 1 lap into the race he was up to P3 and knew he had a good kart and it was race on.

Of the 20 minute race Oscar would have a full 10 minutes to attack Jayden and it made for the best racing night we've had at Teamsport Birmingham since we improved on our track record back on Sept 1st last year.

You'll have to wait for the video to find out if Oscar did manage to get past Jayden, it's many weeks away, the back end of 100 hours of editing that lies ahead 😂

Grid Series Rd5, look out for it.

Goes live 6pm tomorrow on our Youtube channel!

The Date: April 11th 📆
The Venue: Whilton Mill 🏁
The Action: EPIC!!! 💥

I won't give too much away other than Oscar absolutely asserts himself as a high level ranking competitor on his 2nd, and final, visit to Whilton Mill this season with Club100

A sheer willingness to get to the top of the grid see's Oscar take a P1 straight away in testing finishing ahead of easily top 6 competitors, from the off it was clear Oscar wasn't here to just take part 😎

But there's more to the story (the video) than just racing. We stayed over the weekend in a beautiful countryside setting in Daventry and had a lovely walk accompanied by the property owners dog. I've included a 2 minute section in the middle of the video which encapsulates what this father and son journey we are on is truly about ❤️

Nothing is promised beyond the 2026 season so we're giving this absolutely everything we've got and living every single second of it.

I'm massively behind on editing due to the 2 weeks easter holidays (I edit while Oscar's at school) and back to back Club100 and Teamsport events....I am, as of tonight after Grid Series Rd5, 100+ hours of editing behind as I type! 😱

Wish me luck catching up, I'm trying 🫣

We're going to need a super performance on Monday if we're to have a chance of a podium finish after round 6 of the Junior Grid Series next month.
It's out of our hands, talent counts for nothing, kart selection decides everything 💯
Welcome to Teamsport Birmingham, it's like going for a stint in Ladbrokes 😂

Wish us luck folks because that's what will be on the winners side 🤪

Big shoutout to these 3 guys and the rest of you who have read, liked and commented on our page this week 🎉
Danny Millard, Declan Thomas, Jamie Moore
Almost all my personal time goes into Oscar's karting journey, so when I'm not on weekends away with him or at our locat Teamsport track I'm usually sat at the PC editing his next video or I'm here on social media.

So every teeny weeny reaction we get here means the world to me, it confirms I'm not wasting away my hours, it confirms I'm doing the right thing for Oscar.

Thankyou all 🙌🏻

Cracking A final performance in a better kart seen Oscar climb up from P25 to P13 again mixing it with the elite.
Dissapointment is a part of this sport and we don't hide it when the machine just isn't up to the task, and neither do we hide it when things click into place out there for Oscar.
So in the A final it was a slower start, Oscar slipped back a couple of positions early on but would quickly regain them as others ahead went off track in what appeared to be a bit of a demolition derby having seen the amount of penalties handed out.
But then he started to find his pace, understand the kart and push forwards.
He ended up closing in on some karts ahead and got locked into a great battle, one he would eventually win after some solid defending once securing a great overtake.
+10 positions in any A final is a great achievement and after an emotional rollercoaster of a day we're again leaving heads held high and proud of our efforts...I say our because we are a team, Oscar's the talent and I'm the taxi 😂

Onwards we go 😊
