OUTREACH 500 Update

8th October 2006

sure grip ceramics display Hi Everyone,

Well, Kev finally got his car dirty. Sunday, 1st October was a Practice Day at Avalon Speedway and Kev and his pit crew arrived in the early afternoon after church. The weather was hot and very windy and conditions at the track were dirty, dusty and uncomfortable (can't you tell it was my first time trackside?) but we were all very enthusiastic to see the car put through its paces. Being the only Formula 500 there on the day was an advantage because Kev was able to have the track to himself and he had the opportunity to really get to know his car.

We are all excited about the potential of Outreach 500 becoming competitive and Kev hopes he will be able to move up through the field and hold his own with the other drivers. Disappointingly for him, but not surprisingly, there were a few teething problems on Sunday and this impacted on the potential of really trialing the car and he says he didn't feel "at one" with it yet. However, Steve from Racetec, the designer, wasn't fazed at all and he believes Kev has a good chance of success.

Before the 500 took to the track some of the team prayed and we committed the whole project into God's hands. We pray that He will use this for His glory.

Overall, the day was full of potential and we look forward to our next Practice Day on 21st October at Bacchus Marsh Speedway. My question is ~ "Am I ready for another dose of dirt?" Yeah! Why not! Kev tells me night racing isn't as dusty. ~ Time will tell! Can I really trust the judgement of the "World's Oldest Rookie"?

We hope to see you on the 21st!

May God bless you all,

Marg
