This was my first proper circuit race for a long time. Very rusty and a bit cautious, but had heaps of fun. Totally different set of skills needed to the rallying I've been doing....

You can see me in this guy's mirrors from about 9:10 - he sure did take a bit of time to get past!!

Another couple of race meetings and then into the Pukekohe 6hr in May

Poor guy got passed by everyone. Did they flip the grid?

One thing I noticed was that the driver of the Falcon was using 1 hand a lot. I was almost wondering if he only had 1 hand!!

but some good footage of your car.

Yep, handicap race. There were still a lot behind him too, as there were two classes in the race. The Rover and Volvo were also in our class, so I came 3rd and the Falcon was 4th. I was anoyed that the Volvo slipped through when I let the fast class guys through....lesson learned!
