I'm an Electronic Engineer and work as project manager for a global oil and gas research company.I come from a family of racing as my dad raced Speedcars at both Rowley and Speedway Park for many years. I got into karting in my late teens and early 20's for a few years. I then spent some time engineering/restoring/modifying my first car, a HR Holden - which I've still got. Buying a house put the brakes on karting and playing cars and so I found my (budget) racing fix with rFactor and a Logitech GT wheel.Today I race mainly in Assetto Corsa but sometimes throw on Dirty Rally.Up until recently my rig consisted of a 80/20 type chassis with Sparco seat, Fanatec CS base, BMW wheel and pedals along with a triple monitor setup. Late last year I changed over to VR which has really renewed my sim racing interest again so I'm now in the process of putting together a OSW setup and re-jigging everything.Looking forward to catching up with a few like minded guys on-line for a few racing sessions..CheersPaul Logged Simone Xtreme Team Full Member Posts: 970 Karma: 34 Re: Racer Introductions « Reply #339 on: February 08, 2018, 03:32:38 PM » Hi hoopstar!!!

Next Tuesday is a run in the Ferrari F2004 - you'll find a thread with details in the Tuesday sub-forum. Qualifying is at 8:15pm Adelaide time, with a practice session before that. There's also racing in the Cobra on Thursday nights, run by Phil.8.

I used to have a HR Premier , I rolled it over racing a mate of mine, I still remember hanging upside down in the seatbelt, totally disorientated, trying to work out how to get out of the car .

Orange Speedcar 21 and then black speedcar 33 at Speedway park. Dad has a serious accident at Speedway Park in 86 that essentially ended his racing days.rooshooter - you gotta love the old HR's. Mine was bought brand new by my grandfather and as I said, was my first car... lots of great memories in it but unfortunately I don't drive her much these days. Hoping to race it again next summer..I'll certainly check out the F2004's next Tuesday...Thanks again guys.
