Banger

My brother and sister in law shouted me tickets to the speedway for my birthday.

They call it banger racing over here,

it was also a little less, um, professional...

or at least 'less organised', than I'm used to.

A little known fact... once apon a time...

I used to commentate at the local track.

Every Sat night through summer, behind the mic with a crowd of thousands.

But that feels like a life time ago...

tonight would have been the first time I've been in probably 3 years.

And while it was very different to the racing back home,

it still brought back the same boyish smile.

Thanks for the tickets and lunch guys - had a blast!
