We're at the "admiring the track all lit up on the triples" phase of ours. Currently P6 in class after a minute of repairs we don't need to talk about because it may have been my fault 🫣

Hard to beat an MX5 race car for driving fun. Epic day at the track with Dad and Everard today.
The cobwebs have been shaken out ready for the MX5 summer series next month 💪

I'm so excited for Formula Regional Oceania this year.
The usual pool of up and coming kids plus WRC champ Kalle Rovenpera and Supercars Ryan Wood.
Throw in Michael "we went car racing" Masi and you know there's gonna be drama over the next 4 weeks

So cool to see my sim racing newsletter get a shoutout from @traxiongg.bsky.social in Traxion Control.
It's a small thing but when the likes of Traxion, Logitech, The Cave, and other brands notice my little passion project it feels special.

Traxion.gg put out a survey question and yup Rennsport is so cooked 😂
It's 0, not even 0.1% just 0.
No one thinks they'll be getting the millions back they spent on ESL R1 😂

My voice is about to be on Sky TV again!
Pretty cool to have the Aus/NZ endurance series race I commentated and produced going up on Sky at 2pm today. It's a channel no one knew existed and it's only the first hour not proper highlights but still that's dang neato if you ask me

A couple months late to this one but how cool is it to have NZ brand Racetech as a sponsor option in iRacings paint booth.
Trading paints does make it a little irrelevant but I still think it's pretty sweet!

Had some fun spectating last weekend
Lemons is hectic. This was a 9 to 5 race so budget cars on track for 8 hours doing hundreds of laps. Including running the track backwards for half the day 🤣

I've already raced in round 2 but only now have finally completed my round 1 recap. It was epic. I love the Teretonga track and these MX5s are a ball to drive

Can't even explain how amped I was to see my name in an official program just like the ones I used to get when spectating races as a kid. Legit childhood dream come true to be able to do stuff like this
