Apologies but this is a bit of a long post.

Last round of AFPGP done and dusted at our home track DVBC for Max in the F4.

Congratulations to all the F4 Teams, Carlin, Lochie and Tyler you guys did some awesome driving 🥳👏.

Max took out 3rd place overall for the F4 Championship and received the Encouragement Award for this season, well done and congratulations mate 🏆

Special thank you to our number 1 crew Adam for always being with us and Maddy for crewing for Max this weekend, very much appreciated guys 👏

Thank you to DVBC and the AFPGP Committee and volunteers for an awesome weekend and season.

Most of you know that Max has decided to step away from racing for a while and the F4 has been sold.

Who would believe that after 9 years of racing that Max would finish racing the same weekend he started.

At the age of 8 Max had his first race meeting at UHPBC on the Hawkesbury River, 9 years on and he has had his last race meeting in the F4 on the Hawkesbury River at his home track Dargle.

Cook Family Racing has had some awesome times racing and have met some awesome people and formed some great friendships during this time, we are going to miss you all 😥

With no race boats left its time to put the race gear and waders away and support racing again as spectators.

Massive thank you to everyone who has helped and supported us over the last nine years, whether it was with Makayla and Max in junior boats or in the F4 or with Cookie in the hydro.

What's next for Cook Family Racing ......well we will just have to wait and see but knowing what this family is like I am sure between Cookie, Makayla and Max their will be some form of race boat in the shed eventually 🤷‍♀️

Thankyou again to everyone that has helped and supported us through out the last nine years 🥰.

Unfortunately we are cancelling the weekends racing, due to the flooding.
Thank to everyone that came to support our event, it was very much appreciated.

A huge shout out to the guys & gal's that slopped around in the mud tonight to help us pack up the pit area and main spectator area, you put a smile on our faces and made a daunting task so much easier!
Time for a few hours sleep and we'll get up at daybreak to see what Saturday has for us!

3rd round of AFPGP done and dusted on beautiful Lake Mulwala Yarrawonga.
Friday the 5 F4 boats had practice and qualifying.
Saturday Max spent his birthday racing and enjoying the company of all his racing mates.
After a bit of a delay Max went out for his first race but unfortunately the 2nd race for Saturday was postponed until Sunday morning. Max spent Saturday night celebrating his birthday with his racing friends.

Sunday morning the 2nd F4 race was run followed by 3rd and final race for the weekend.

Big thankyou to Makayla, Jai, Adam, Maddy and Blake for all your help over the weekend, we can't go racing without your help.

Overall for this round Max took home 3rd place, Tyler in 1st and Carlin in 2nd, disappointing that Lachie had problems but you will get everything sorted and ready for 4th round.

Great safe driving by all the drivers, congrats to you all.

Max you put in an awesome effort mate, up until the day before we still weren't sure you were going to race but you went out and drove to the conditions, well done mate.

Big thank you to Victorian Speed Boat Club, AFPGP and all the volunteers for putting on the event.

Thank you to Smiley Photos for awesome photos ☺️
