More About Me and F1 Commentary

I started racing microd cars last year, the spring and summer of 2006. My Dad had seen a microd car the previous summer when he was in a vintage sports car race up in Watkins Glen, New York. He looked up more about them online when he got back home and we decided that winter that I would race one the next season. We bought a car and I ran it in one event, but we had trouble with it so we bought another one. My Dad is going to fix the first car some day and one of my other 2 brothers will get to race it. We bought the second car from some go-karting friends. We raced that car six times. I didn't win the first 5 events, but I won the sixth race, The Hillcrest Cup race that I mentioned in my last post.

I watched the Formula One race yesterday. This week's race was in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I was hoping that Kimi Raikkonen would win, so I was kind of disappointed that he didn't win. There weren't very many accidents or crashes in the race, this was good. One time I watched a race where it was raining and there were so many crashes that only two people ended up on the podium at the end! This was a few years ago, so I can't remember which race it was. I wish that Felipe Massa hadn't gone off the track in the first couple laps.

My Dad ordered me a new helmet this week. It's tight on me but that's the way it's supposed to be. My helmet last year fit more loosely. My Dad is wondering if I will even get use of the helmet for 2 seasons.
