So, to finish off the blog post for the race weekend! Lets see! This wedding was totally unplanned for me and I had NO idea who any of these people were. WHAT I did know was what I do best, improvise and get the best photos.. Even though I was not hired I still tired to work with the quickly falling light and that posed a challenge. So here are some of those photos in no particular order!
I swear i'll blog more! So i'm going to publish two right here right now! How's that sound? Good!
Last weekend Oct 31st 2015, I had my first CMRA start!! It was not the best start to a race however before the first turn! I had already gotten many people though that turn!! How exciting was that you ask? VERY Because it was all done in the rain!!!
I continued to move up to the front of the pack in the first two laps of the two hour race.
Right before the second lap was ending I had a problem, I couldn't see! The visor to my helmet was fogging up due to the inner liner that was made to prevent such things. Earlier on in the year I had ripped the fog proof liner and never replaced it.
I kept pushing till I realized I could not see the track conditions worsening.. I made the decision to slow down dramatically after a really close call to ending the race with a crash. Over all, our team made it in 5th place in class which isn't to bad considering! We also had a scary amount of tornado warnings and lightning storms! Here are photos and videos of that weekend?!
Race start!
First turn where I realized I can't see the track.
Where I realized it wasn't worth it.
Drive to the track.
First sign of rain on the way!
Friday Practice... In the rain!
Gross Mexican beer after not crashing out of practice and getting second fastest!
We got our pit up and ready for the race!
Then we (Team mate Stacey) get stuck inside during a freak storm!
And what we came to find after the rain storm!! :(
