Our First 100 Lapper šļø
What a weekend it was. We arrived with a dialled in car, ready to take action (or so we thought). The car rolled out of the trailer and a fuel pump said āno thanksā⦠but lucky for me, Shane happened to making a trip back to Melbourne and was able to make a stop and bring a new pump back up with him. Thanks mate!
First heat was a tear offs worst nightmare, but we pushed through and finished with a 2nd.
Second heat the track was coming to us but the car was down on power. We had an awesome run chasing Jacko, and unlucky for him, he pushed out of the dog leg and I was able to sneak on by and get the heat win!!!
I was fired up!
We had some over fuelling issues but with little time until our 3rd heat we wire brushed the plugs and got rolling (thanks to Robbie and Shane for the fast work).
Third heat the rain started and the track was a handful, but we pushed on.
Unfortunately we took on damage to 3 corners, so not really stoked on that but oh well. Lennie helped us out by straightening all the corners with just panels to patch. In the end, we ended up with a 2nd place- so overall a great result.
At the end of Saturday we were sitting 5th in points.
Sunday we werenāt racing until the very last heat of the night, so it was a long day. We lined up on the dummy grid in pole next to Jacko, ready for another awesome heat, but as we were waiting the rain hit and that was it for the weekend.
Although the rain stopped us from racing, it was great to see all the cars lined up for a grid walk and to watch all the kids in awe of all the cars. Nath surprised us with some awesome stickers of the torrie, that we got to hand out to all the kids and likewise excited adults!
An unfortunate ending to the weekend as it would have been great to get the final in, but Iām now all the more excited for the next one.
Thanks to everyone that helped out over the weekend, every bit of help is appreciated. Special thanks to all friends and family for the support!
