Start of 2009

Happy New Year to everyone! Its been a mad last couple of weeks after a quiet family christmas at home. We got the car back from the bodyshop about 4 days before it went to the Autosport Show and had loads to do but as always we got there at the last minute and it all came together and looked fabulous. Autosport was great fun as I got to drive a couple of the other Super Mighty Minis in the Live Action Shows which was awesome, thanks to Scotty and Pete Crewes for trusting me in their cars, it was like being back in a ministox again on the short oval circuit and in front of a big crowd. We were also entrusted with driving the Pistonheads super sports cars around the indoor arena, I got to drive a Lotus Europa Black Diamond worth £120k! Very nice apart from the fuel light was on all the time which I kept telling them about until it finally ran out of petrol in the middle of the arena and I had to be pushed off which was embarrassing but quite funny. Back to the serious stuff, I have been working very hard to get myself sponsorship to keep me racing this year and Im pleased that I have secured a deal with Richard Egger Insurance which is going to be a big help for the year. Lots of nice people have helped me with parts and stuff for the car aswell, please have a look at my sponsors page for the full list. I am so pleased that thanks to my sponsors I will be able to keep racing and my aims for this season are to do more testing and to do every championship round, to get my first podium finish and to retain the Ladies Championship for a third year as no-one has won it three times. My first round is at Cadwell Park on 19 April, I cant wait but there is some serious staying in, working hard and saving money to be done before then!
