Here it is! 45mins of action all the way through! If you haven't got time you can skip the first 10mins. Includes battles and a broad sideways save on full lock! (Skip too 32:50 for that) Clear to see at the end of the race I'm a happy man 😂

Massive thanks for all the supporters through this year and the countless people that have all leant a hand!
1st in class and 3rd overall. I know it's only one race, but for me it felt like a championship after 45 mins of battling and taking 3rd with 2 laps left!!!

Enjoy

To be honest I thought I'd lost it!!! Was relieved when I got it back as I put it into the gravel last year in the wet at paddock hill and didn't want to dnf this race, especially as I was doing so well.

It's the gearing and the torque that makes it pull so well, short shifting in the wet makes for good acceleration.
Storm single wiper? Keeping to my roots lol

I thought it gripped momentarily so I went to straighten up, then it carried on going round (Oh sh*t full lock power power)

Congrats on your first win birchie..

did you see this car:



He was next to you in the pits, was absolutely miffed as he binned it on the gravel. He wanted me to pass on a Congratulations as he saw you round the track pretty impressed with the Corsa.

Thanks nath, yeah I did see him next to us, although I didn't get a chance to chat to him. One of my pals did before the race and he said how much he had just paid for the car and where it was from, first outing with the car so I understand.

I didn't know he went into the gravel, although he does feature at least once in my video.

Facebook ginger snaps race media, click on photos and there is quite a few good pictures of the golf.
