worked abput 30 hours with the race team.
Running caterham roadsports at mallory park.
we had 4 drivers in 2 races.
We came home with 3 wins, a couple of seconds, a third
one of guys started from the pitlane in race 2, drove to the front of the pack within 4 laps but got black flagged for no rain light!!
Such a shame but we were so pushed th get the cars on track due to damage that we didnt make the grid!
I work for Hyperion here are some pics - spot hyperion or a H on the cars!!

Hard work always pays off
Ive met heaps of people etc and hopefully should be working for them full time in 2006/2007 when i finish in june!
The fact i have 2 cars to run in europe this year is a huge challenge, but one that excites me!
Also all the comma caterham stuff, such as autosport, motorshow i have to do, that includes a few hours a day driving the cars as well
