Birthday Trackday

Another year has passed and I'm now 24 years old. Sounds gross, I know... Haha. It was the first year since I turned 18 that I didn't get piss drunk on my birthday. It was such a strange feeling, I didn't like it at all which means big plans for my birthday next year.

What I did get though was an awesome track day from Kim. As usual it meant long nights in the garage leading up to the trackday. But it was all worth it.

Early Thursday morning I skipped uni and made my way to Wakefield Park with some friends for the day. The weather was perfect and we escaped the heat in Sydney for the day. There were a few cars there that made things a bit dangerous at times with their driving. But I guess you always get the one or two who seem to ruin it for everyone else.

That didn't stop me from going all out though. I started off with a 1:18 in the first session then down to 1:16s half way through the day. With the help of Jimi Hendrix I got geed up for the final session and pumped out a 1:15.68. It was such a great feeling and an awesome birthday present for myself.


Thanks to Mowad, I even got it on video! 9:34 is the start of my PB lap.
