Abhilash Kottakkal Posted August 14, 2023 Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 Thank you all for your wishes and support..I had refusals, stucks, silly flag issues, winch recovery and last time a tyre pop out, it taught me many things... I was actually surprised to see the calmness, patience and the support of the team. I am loving this new found sport it is very thrilling and happy I found the right team to learn and grow. Hope I get this support( I am sure of it) in my forward journey and contribute to the community the same way as I recieve it... Looking forward to push myself and my car (he is the one I should thank more for taking all the hit and keep me going forward) to the next level. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
