It was the first race of the day, Cold Wakefield Morning, I got the best start i have ever had and went from 4th to 2nd by the kink, held 2nd for most of the 5 laps but got pipped by Steve Anslow with a lap to go.
3rd outright with the lowest capacity car.

Best Racing Memory: Winning the 2003 4 & 6 cylinder NSWRRC Sports Sedan Championship in my Debut Season

Why/how you got into racing: I have grown up around race cars with uncles racing, my dad did a bit of historic racing, so when i got my licence, my first litte car got subjected to Supersprints. And it has grown from there.

Plans for 2008: Plans for 2008 were pretty simple, first priority was the birth of my Little Boy "Riley Brock Harrison" 10-7-2008.
Now I have time to race, hope for a full iRace season in 09.

Your team and who makes it all possible: It isnt a big team, but i wouldnt have it any other way, countless hours in the family workshop with my Dad preparing he car, great support from my wife, and my best mate Steve trackside everytime without fail!
