Project Rookie - Early Season Review

Well after an early exit from my first round it was time to head to Shakespeare County Raceway for the Spring Speed festival.

Two full days of qualifying and one day of eliminators, with the threat for rain on Sunday night through to Monday meant we had a non stop schedule which was very hard on the car due to the fact that I had no cooling on the car!

So day one was fantastic I was number one qualifier after the first run!!! I was still there at the end of day one, what a result. Day two looked good, I was in a good position but others were upping their game, pushing me down to 3rd, all was not lost however as after a little tune up I managed to run a personal best of 13.3 at 100.05 mph.

Unfortunately the bad weather came early and qualifying was rained off Sunday evening. Monday saw more bad weather an the eliminator rounds were also called off, but every cloud has a silver lining with no eliminators the qualifying positions were kept as the final result great!!

At least the car's looking good, as evidenced by this excellent picture and video taken at Santa Pod!
