Racing
In sport, racing is a competition of speed, in which competitors try to complete a given task in the shortest amount of time. Typically this involves traversing some distance, but it can be any other task involving speed to reach a specific goal. A race may be run continuously to finish or may be made up of several segments called heats, stages or legs. A heat is usually run over the same course at different times. A stage is a shorter section of a much longer course or a time trial. Early records of races are evident on pottery from ancient Greece, which depicted running men vying for first place. A chariot race is described in Homer's Iliad.

The feel that I'm getting from the car is not what it used to be. Testing restrictions, tire restrictions, the weekend formats are pretty condensed and so I'm learning on the fly, i don't want to get out of the car. I love racing cars, that's what I do for a living, but the team can't wait for a driver to get re-acclimatized. Races cost money, serious money, and as a minimum I will be doing the co-driver races for them and the co-driver testing during the race weekends and we'll just see how it goes.
