Default My first affray into Motor Racing

Well on saturday I entered into my first HillClimb event in the 3 Door.
Its the Nat B Licence Speed Championship with rounds at Prescott and MIRA.

You race on just the Saturday with 2 practice runs in the morning and then 2 race runs in the afternoon.

It was savagely wet in the morning and I managed a 61.88 and a 62.30 respectively, luckily it stopped raining at lunch and the track dryed out abit.

Still with the boost turned down as low as it would go I went out and did a 56.30 which I didn't think was too bad just as we started our second run it began to rain again so put in a slower time of 57.43.

I came 4th in the overall standings out of 22 cars as this is handicap championship and my handicap was set at 55.00 seconds nobody beat there handicaps on the day. I recieved a nice little glass trophey.

Here's the videos on my 1st and 2nd race runs:
