| 2012 - #20 – Tullyroan Oval – 16/6/12 |
The first day of the first National Banger two day meeting in Northern Ireland, which initially was going to be England V Ireland, that fell through and it was then going to be North V South, that too didn’t work and so it was settled as an Irish Open Championship and the first sight of racing at Tullyroan in wet conditions. Before the meeting had even started Jay Jay McConaghie had been upside down in his Robin and Glenn McDowell had been into the wall on the back straight.

| 2012 - #19 - Ballymena Raceway - 8/6/12 |
One of the biggest nights on the local racing calendar, the F2 Irish Open Championship and this year the Saloon Irish Open was on the same bill. In honour of the occasion I skipped my normal weekly exercise session of an hour of indoor football on a Friday night in order to miss none of it.

| 2012 - #16 – Tullyroan Oval – 26/5/12 |
Sixteenth meeting of the season for me and the 9th different venue and in fact the third venue I hadn’t seen racing on before, but then again neither had anyone else.
The big day finally arrived to see Tullyroan Oval in all it’s glory and I think it’s fair to say it didn’t disappoint.

| Tullyroan Oval Practice Night |
Having missed the practice day on Saturday, I managed to make it to practice night. I must admit to be struggling a bit with angles, it's all new, it's all different, it's like giving a child the run of a sweet shop.
The track still amazes me and it was the first time I'd seen cars on it, it's going to be some spot.
If I can offer any advice to those who haven't been in the evening.... bring a baseball cap or sunglasses, I image turn one and the back straight will be the most popular and you'll be watching the racing into the sun.

| 2012 - #15 - Northampton - 19/5/12 |
I appears I've reached a strange point in my life where by mid May I have seen the F2's more times on the mainland than I have at home and in fact I've now seen the F1's on the mainland as many times as I've seen the F2's at home. While on a trip away I managed to find my way to another Stockcar meeting, this time at Northampton.
