.......what the hell happened in the third race buddy
You were well placed in races 1 and 2

[Hamish]

Hey Gordy, good to see you yesterday.

I made some real progress at the weekend, qualified 7th (was 4th at one point!!!) finished first 2 races 8th (6th fastest in race 1)... was well pleased with the way everything was going.

Race 3 did its best to spoil the day, but I'll try and focus on the positives... although the whole episode was completely and utterly avoidable, unfortunately someone chose to include me in their learning curve and moved across my nose... after that i was a passenger heading towards the tyres.

Big thanks to all the marshalls who looked after me post incident and the doctor/ambulance crew (I was adamant about being fine and not needing a check up and was reluctant about getting in the ambulance haha). However they 'talked me round' haha and were really excellent, doing a great job at sorting me and my car out.

Also, huge thanks to Craig Noble, Scott McKenzie, my mechanic Kevin and all the Minimax guys and girls for an awesome weekend and a top job.

Really good to catch up with Mark Dryden too and meeting Stephen from NMS.

Onwards and Upwards though Gordy!!!

[Hamish]

thanks Stephen... will get a lookie just now... i'll be able to see how good my car looked prior to race 3! haha.

Hey Greig... we're missing you at Knockhill too... I could of done with some of your banter yesterday dude. I'm fine matey... although my office walls arent so good... they keep spinning round... better get a builder in to sort them out! hahaha

[GCA3N]

What you like Hamish is it going better than last year.

[Hamish]

loads better dude... like I say... was comfortably in top half in first 2 and was much the same in race 3 (until.......) .

Really loving Minimax and the whole team, everyone gets on well with each other and theres good spirit. I'm finding time and gaining confidence so moving in the right direction.

Also... Just thinking, I managed to make it to the final race of the season opener at KH this time... progress!!!
