My son the racing driver




Over the past few months we have been busy following our eldest sons new hobby as a Racing Driver!


He has been driving in the VW racing cup and I must admit although I was very nervous it is also very exciting. In his first race he finished a respectable 10th in the championship that was at Oulton Park. At Rockingham race track he was 11th and 6th in both races which moved him up to 8th place and this weekend he finished 6th in his first race and 6th in his second race at Knockhill racetrack. This bumpes him upto 5th in the championship leaderboard. Great work for a novice in his first season.


If anyone is interested in motor racing this is a great day out, the cars that drive cover a range of VW cars and vans and the speed of them is awsome, but what makes it even more special is the frienly atmosphere between the driers and families that attend these meetings. Our next race meeting is at Snetterton in Norfolk in three weeks time and although it was a long drive back from Knockhill in Scotland last night I can't wait for the next race.
