My Boy's a Winner !!

Just had to share this with you all......
My son won his first race in the Scottish XR2 championship yesterday at Knockhill and it was in very wet conditions.. He was second in qualifying by 0.004 sec but he and the leader were soon swapping places at the front and leaving everyone else behind.. Andrew finally clinched it with his third - or was it fourth - overtaking move at the hairpin and hung on the lead until about three laps later when the race was red flagged because of the number of other cars that had slid off into the tyre walls...
Carnage everywhere but the boy did a great job in lousy conditions although there's a few dents to knock out now
Formula One has got nothing on club racing like this ......
