My voice is about to be on Sky TV again!
Pretty cool to have the Aus/NZ endurance series race I commentated and produced going up on Sky at 2pm today. It's a channel no one knew existed and it's only the first hour not proper highlights but still that's dang neato if you ask me

Had a lot of fun in the commentary booth last week with the AUS/NZ Endurance Series.
Made the mistake of mentioning how clean the front cars were at the 1hr mark which was the last time I did that 🤣

A couple months late to this one but how cool is it to have NZ brand Racetech as a sponsor option in iRacings paint booth.
Trading paints does make it a little irrelevant but I still think it's pretty sweet!
