Good to finally go down south and race the national guys
2022 is a year of learning both on and off the track and to finally get serious about racing. it was a good start to the year going down south from racing in Queensland down to Victoria. Sandown National round 1 was the first time in the car since the Christmas break and unable to score points due to a rear tailshaft housing tearing up in the second race and not getting high up enough in the final race and only points counting race to get some points.
The next FFA Round at Philip Island was the first time at the track like it was at Sandown but the track suited me better due to the fast flowing nature of the track finishing as high up as eighth and having only one practice session and dropped 1.5 seconds between the practice and the qualifying to put me in 13th
