Transcript

00:00 With Chris, we're down here at the Premier Speedway launch.

00:04 Chris, how's today going?

00:07 - It's going really well, thanks.

00:08 We got here about a bit after eight this morning and set up.

00:11 I've got my street stock here on display.

00:15 Been a lot of work, but I've finally got it

00:19 looking pretty good.

00:20 - And I see a lot of fans, a lot of kids here.

00:23 I saw you signing a few jumpers.

00:25 - Yeah.

00:26 No, it's really good when kids want your autograph.

00:29 It makes you feel real special.

00:31 Like it's not always about the spring cars, you know,

00:35 and the higher names.

00:37 It's good to get a bit of acknowledgement.

00:39 Even seeing it on the TV here today, it's pretty cool.

00:43 - And you're gonna have the Victorian titles here

00:46 in Warrnambool next year.

00:47 What's that like to have that kind of at your home track?

00:51 - Yeah, it's really awesome.

00:52 I haven't had a Vic title here at Warrnambool

00:54 in this class before,

00:56 but it's also the same night as the modified.

00:59 So it should be such a great night.

01:02 Should be well over a hundred tin tops

01:03 as we call themselves.

01:05 Yeah, it should be great.

01:07 - And are you ready for a big kind of summer of racing?

01:11 - Yeah.

01:12 Yeah, it's Victoria street stock racing this year,

01:16 especially.

01:17 We got our local Australian title in Hamilton as well,

01:20 in March.

01:21 And lots of feature races too, lots of big events around.

01:25 So it should be good.
