Timing is everything, in racing as in life.

29 Black has had the opportunity to scoop up a powerhouse in competitive sim racing. Nick Pautasso.

"As Track Stars owner and Mashed Spuds Racing team principal, Domsorl is a league I am very familiar with over my time.

The inaugural Hamilton Trophy winner alongside Kris Lashbrook and a title-holder in DTCC, Super Sprint, and Vision X.

I've had my fun times but now ready to hit the track again after a hiatus to show speed and vigilance with 29 Black and my teammate Justin.

Over in Track Stars, I was the 2020 overall champion across Touring Cars, Super Formulas, and Porsche Cup, a 2x Formula drivers' champion, and inaugural endurance champion. With multiple starts and wins across every category competed under Track Stars."

Round 3 was run on Wednesday night, this time at the Goodwood circuit.

A great round for Ben Hamilton Racing which saw him take two trips to the podium. Aidan managed 8th in race one, and unfortunately another DNF in race 2.

For 29 Black, despite Justin not being 100% fit, he scored an 11th in race 1, and bettered that for a 7th in race 2.

Chevy had another forgettable night, hopefully, being run off the track in both races. The second destroying his engine on only the 2nd lap. He has now also made the decision to step away from the league for the foreseeable future.

Round 2 wrap up.

The 2x9 guys showed some good pace last night. Ben Hamilton Racing managed to grab two fifth place finishes, while Aidan got 7th in his 100th race, and unfortunately technical issues took him out of race 2.

The 29 Black team was another solo run, this time by Justin. He struggled with spinning in his first race this season, but turned his results around in the second race to take the 🏆.

Round 1 of the Domsorl league series kicked off last night.

The 2x9 guys had a mixed run last night. Aidan struggled with the new car initially, but then came back for a 3rd in race 2.

Ben Hamilton Racing managed a 7th in race 1, but then struggled for handling on the hard tyres in race 2.

29 Black was represented by Chevy as the new boss Justin was unable to race due to other commitments. Chevy surprised himself by getting a top 10 in race 1, and ran a non-stop strategy in race 2 that didn't work as well as he hoped, and fought it home on the last couple laps with no grip in the front tyres.

In less than a week, Ben Hamilton Racing & Aidan will be back for 2X9 Racing in the Domsorl league.

We just missed out last season, can we take the top step this time?

The season is run and done. We fought until the end, but we got 2nd in the teams championship, just 1 point behind.

Both Ben Hamilton Racing & Aidan put in another amazing effort all season.

Ben was also fighting for the drivers championship in the final round, but did awesome to come away with another 2nd place trophy.

The 29 Black guys Chevy and Justin also showed good pace in the final round, including Chev's best finish this season with a 4th in the second last race.
