June 14th, 2011 · 2 Comments · Car Event, Driving, My Cars, Racing, Video

TweetThere are good race days, and then there are bad race days. Sadly, this particular day fell into the latter category for me… It just wasn’t my day.

My Return to Racing!

May 17th, 2011 · No Comments · Car Event, Driving, Photos, Racing

TweetOne thing I missed terribly was racing. While I’ve never been fantastic at it, I also know I have potential… And I want to develop this potential. It’s important enough to me to work on it.
