RESULT - Mallory Park 19/07
Posted: 20 Jul 2012 18:52
My commitment to the sport has been seriously tested this week.
2 crashes and racing in foul wet weather conditions isn't really my idea of fun.
However, onwards I plodded up to Mallory Park last night. The forcast wasn't too bad, maybe a light rain shower, possibly not. What greeted us was a monsoon. Visibility was bad, the rain and surface spray was hurting my eyes. It was like driving in the fast lane of the motorway at 100mph and not being able to see anything.
The racing was hard and fast. The leading group lapped the entire field. I wasn't enjoying it. But I just kept going, i hung in there with the leaders and managed to get 8th place. After the week i'd had I'll take that.
