 Brands good and bad
Wow Brands Hatch is a fantastic circuit and my
car was back on song after having an engine once
over and a new set up, I couldnt afford to test
before I went so I was straight out on the
circuit first time for qualifying and it was
great I qualified in a much better 9th position,
I totally loved the circuit all the corners are
fast and mostly right handers and suit my skating
the arse out driving, I loved it. So with things
looking up I was really hoping to get a better
result this time but just my luck on the start I
missed 3rd gear which we put down to a last
minute seat and gearstick reposition, but that
was my race overwith really I was at the back
with everything to make up and everyone against
me, I was appalled at some of the driving
standards at the back of the field, all the boys
that I caught up ran me off the track, I dont
think the big egos could cope with being passed
by a girl so they resorted to dangerous blocking
and running me onto the grass at every
opportunity, I was pushed over the curb at the
top of paddock and sent flying down the steep
grass bank and by some miracle pulled it back and
kept it lit and got it back on the track but it
was a really dangerous move and I was lucky not
to have rolled over, I should have put a
complaint in really to the CoC but its not my
style to whinge, if they want to play dirty they
have picked on the wrong girl. I finished 17th
which was at least a few points but piss poor
really when my lap times in the race were 8th
fastest.
