Yeah like me lol. It got back to me that I got bagged out for the way I did my first couple of runs and that I didn't "belong" there etc... Funny because I took out a trophy for my first time out so I couldn't have been that bad :P

But truth is, it almost put me off going for another try but I decided not to let it get to me. Some people need to remember that 'first time out' means exactly that! We're not all 'automatic' experts.

And then you wonder why (especially) females don't wanna give racing a go. Comments like what Tracey copped, don't help.
