Kid's first race was a mixed affair. For me it was pretty hard work trying to keep 2 cars running, look after her, and race myself.

For her, she broke her car in heat 1 (ball joint pulled out, fixed with a bit of super glue). Managed to finish her other heats but then broke a steering knuckle in the final.

She crashed, a lot. 2 laps was her best, she was so much worse at driving there than when we were bashing. She enjoyed it, she was scared, I was proud. We've got a 4 week break now so I said she really needs to play with her car more before then.
