| First Race event | 10 Aug 02 |
Yes, My first race event took place on the 10th of August where I had my first taste of the real thing. Let me tell you this was really great!!!
I qualified in last position on the grid with 13 cars on the grid. Running a lap time of 56.5 seconds to the pole position running 52.6 seconds per lap.
Here I am getting ready for my First race ever!
And the rolling start was also something to talk about having everyone gunning it at the start with all that smoke and poor vision. I was saying to myself at this point "Thank goodness I am at the back and not in the middle of this." Yes that was me right at the back!
There was some hair raising moves in the event too with some close racing at the back of the field!
All in all it was really an enjoyable day and turn of events. Coming 10th in 2 of my heats was at least a step up from last and hope to move up the ranks once I get used to it. Averaging 74km/hr round the track was quite an experience at that low level let me tell you.
ENJOY !
