π SCSR SPA 24 HOUR DRIVER INTRODUCTIONS π
It's race day... and we've somehow trusted five different personalities to keep one Mercedes pointing in the right direction for 24 hours. What could possibly go wrong? π
βοΈ DAY SHIFT
πΆ Chase β The youngest of the bunch. He's got one setting... FULL SEND. If there's a gap, he's taking it. If there isn't a gap... there might be one in about 0.2 seconds.
π¦π¦ Dom β Our young Tasmanian couldn't start the race because he needed his beauty sleep. Priorities, apparently. So we've pushed him back to the second stint to make sure he's fully charged. Once he's awake and locked in though... watch out. He'll be absolutely unstoppable, throwing the Merc around Spa like he's been doing it his whole life.
π¨ Seb β The elder Tasmanian of the team. Calm, experienced and full of wisdom... until the rear steps out. Then the Drift King appears, and suddenly we're tackling Spa like it's a Drift competition round instead of a 24-hour endurance race.
π NIGHT SHIFT
ποΈ Matt β Splitting his time between sim racing and real-life V8 Supercars up in Townsville. Somehow he manages to both in the same week and still reminds everyone he's "a bit rusty." We don't believe him either.
π David β While the rest of us are racing through the day, Dave will be spending most of the day on a train just to get home in time for his stints. That's dedication... or just really poor timing.
π Matt & David β Both Special Event podium finishers... and if you haven't heard about it, don't stressβthey'll happily remind you. Every conversation somehow starts with, "Back when we finished on the podium..."
π― Team ObjectivesοΏ½β
Keep it on the black stuff.οΏ½β
Avoid the walls.οΏ½β
Survive Chase's opening stints.οΏ½β
Keep Seb facing forwards.οΏ½β
Stop Matt and David from bringing up their podiums every five minutes.οΏ½β
Make sure David doesn't fall asleep on the train and miss his first stint.
Wish the boys luck! Here's hoping we see the chequered flag with the car in one piece... and with Matt and David still humble.
(Yeah... that last one's probably asking too much.) ππ
