Of course, as a lot of you stated, the race wasn’t overly exciting.

“I realised I was well beyond my conscious understanding… I was way over the limit but still able to find more.”

What a legend.

Alex started racing at a young age so certainly knows his way around a car and a track. He can just about put a sentence together too, which helps. He has a great interest in the latest models, but would throw all of his money at a rusty old French classic and a 300ZX. Contact: [email protected]
