00:00I just love the racetrack, it's a proper street track, you've got to be so committed, you've
00:13got to be willing to be able to touch the walls, not hit them, just touch them and not
00:17be scared of that.
00:18He's trying to play defense, he'll lose second as SVG is on the move, he'll take the spine.
00:23Looks good, the track looks really cool so hopefully walk around it later today and yeah
00:27everything just learning the track, how it races, where you can pass people I guess and
00:32defend as well and then hopefully it's dry this year as well so it should be a lot more
00:37racy in the track and more passing sponsored.

01:01days.

01:14and then you looked at the end of the race and it was just packed, you know there was
01:16three or four people deep on the wall, it was pretty cool and the street race here is
01:21epic for all the fans too so yeah, the weather should be better, the concert should be epic
01:26and hopefully everyone has a great time.
