First ever race weekend in @racecoupecup at Oulton park.
Qualifying: went well getting 2nd place only 2 and a half tenths off pole but I knew I could have gone a bit faster as I only had one clean lap due to traffic.
Race 1: 1st Place- An amazing race where I went from P2 to P1 by the end of the first lap and had build up about a 2 second gap to P2. However on lap 2 a safety car came out and due to some confusion with a lapped car I didn't get a good run from it but despite this I manged to hold of @adamjonesracing for the remaining laps, getting a win in my first ever race.
Race 2: 3rd place- At the start a bit of wheelspin dropped me down to P5 by turn 1. Despite this I managed to work my way up to the back of P2 when a safety car was called. With only 1 lap remaining after the end of the safety car I wasn't able to gain any more positions.
Overall it was an amazing first weekend of racing and I couldn't be happier. I would like to say a massive thanks you to everyone at @cursleymotorsport as well as @swattonracing for the photos.
