awesome, you work at Sandown! I used to (my folks still do) live like 2 mins from there. I got caught once riding my bike in there when it was closed.

My whole life has been motorsport-full too! My Dad has won Victorian and Australian titles in Car Rallying. I've always been involved in the sport (mostly at official level) but unfortunately I get too carsick to actually look down reading maps in a car... :repuke ... but I'm still keen to get my own car happening someday that I can drive in rallies! :P
I remember a rally event that used to be run at Sandown by Ford Four Car Club. My Dad used to have a hand running the event if I remember rightly, it was awesome fun until it was scrapped.
But congrats to you Brett! Make the most of your drive... 馃槈
