Another great weekend and the word of the weekend is" SWELTERING."
1. Yes it was hot and humid and maybe cars didn't make maximum power but as always the GP track proved itself to the a very special place. If you don't smile, then scream then laugh outloud, you have the wrong hobby.
2. OTA has outstanding students many who become competitors. Tricky conditions on Saturday afternoon were managed well by everyone. Well done.
3. The students succeed because OTA has excellent Instructors who willingly give of their time to bring new people into the sport. They are so good in fact that the students from last year are now edging out some instructors in competition. Now that's unselfish for sure.
4. Volunteerism is alive at OTA. You know who you are and we can't do it without you. Many Many thanks.
5. So got my car back on track just in time for the most exciting weekend of the year. What a joy it was sliding down 2 and making it pointed the right way. Don't ever want to miss that feeling.
6. BTW, I know William Au-Leung is an excellent driver but had no idea what a beast his car (and I use the term loosely) really is. He must need all of his prodigious skill and some huge body parts to get that thing on the track. I have now seen the Drag Racing side of Time Attack. WOW.
7. Some other very fast machines had issues also which was disappointing. Others just kept racing on as expected. Can anyone say MAZDA?
Next event is at Shannonville and everyone is invited. It may be a bit of a drive for some (just 5 hrs for me) but it is a super fun track to drive, faster than it looks and with double points for Sunday. Don't forget you can still qualify for the OTA shootout on Sept 8 if you have only done 2 events so far cause the SMP events count as 3. Come on make it out for some fun and a free BBQ. You won't regret it.
