Race report Ozz Titles @ Eastern Creek
« on: November 20, 2012, 06:58:26 pm »
I apologize once again for my tardiness.
Many of you would know that my long term goal after last years accident was to be able to line up at this years Ozzi Titles at Eastern Creek.
I managed to do that last weekend.
My goals where simple enough.

*  Complete all my practice and qualifying sessions.
*  Complete all title races
*  Complete as many support races as I could without impinging on my ability to finish the titles.
*  Finish all my races without being lapped.
*  And most important of all, not get in anybody's way.

I managed all of those goals except one. 8)
To say I'm absolutely rapt would be an understatement.

I did not have the mobility to get around and take pictures but I have stolen some footage from a couple of mates cameras.
Pete aka sohc boy dropped into say g'day, it's always good to catch up with another member.
Will continue shortly.

Cheers.
Brian

 
Pete's the rough looking fella on the left. ;)

Thank's Mate,
It's good to be back I can tell you.
It was the one on that list that worried me least.
I did manage to get lapped, it's never happend before.
A first time for everything they say.
It's good to hear from you mate.

Cheers,
Brian

Was just about to hit 'post', but you got there 1st Brian. ;)
"I'm thinking it might be #4 scotty, given there are TZ powered chairs competing.  It's also the first race back after a bit of a layoff ;), and on a rig with different controls."

A remarkable achievement.
