What a weekend at Oceanview Speedway, Whanganui! 🏁
Day 1
• Race 1: Grid 12 → Finished 14th
• Race 2: Grid 25 → Finished 18th
• Race 3: Grid 4 → Finished 4th
With those results, we qualified for Day 2 in Tier 2 and also qualified 10th out of 40-something girls for the Girls Challenge race. No damage to the car, and I got better and more comfortable with the track as the night went on.
Day 2
• Race 1: Grid 1 → Finished 19th
Led the race for the first two laps before being hit and spun by another car.
• Race 2: Grid 12 → DNF
Started on the outside grid in the middle. The track was insanely wet and I got pushed up the wall and over in the first corner off the green. A bit of damage was done to the car, but the crew worked hard and managed to fix it so I could get back out for races 3 and 4.
• Race 3: Grid 26 → Finished 20th
• Race 4 (Girls Challenge): Grid 10 → Finished 14th out of 24 reaching my fastest laptime of both nights.
Day two was hectic and eventful. The ruts both nights were insane, causing the majority of crashes, and the amount of water put on the track made it feel like driving in a pool.
Even though day two didn’t turn out how we were hoping, I still had an awesome time and was just happy to be out racing with friends in Whanganui for the first time. Now it’s time for the car to hit the shed for some adjustments and repairs.
