You have an impressive racing track record.
. Must be quite rewarding to have a national championship in your portfolio
.
My tracking history is much more modest, amateur hobby only, but having fun nonetheless

You are right about how abrasive the track was. It must have been quite a challenge to manage tire wear in full fledge races. I remember how tough it was on tires, and we went out only for 5-6 lap stints.
Looking forward to see you at Tremblant next year
