“I always enjoyed the training more than I did the racing. There was a high level of anxiety in racing that I did not enjoy. Training runs set me FREE. I could imagine the race in my mind and race as if it were the actual race.” IfsMindRunningEnjoyLevelsRaceImagineAnxietyTrainingEnjoyedRacingHigh Level Author:Gerry Lindgren
“I try to relax and enjoy it. I don't really get nervous, I get excited! I love training, but my main excitement comes from when I'm racing and the better the standard of people I'm racing, the more excited I get and the more 'up for it' I get.” PeopleTryingEnjoyTrainingStandardsExcitedNervousExcitementRelaxRacing Author:Liam Tancock
“My father was a racing driver, his name is Don Halliday. I grew up with it all around me. I have always been into fast, dangerous sports, even as a child. As soon as I got in a car I knew it was for me and that I would enjoy racing and competing. My mother was also involved in Solo One. She always said I was like my father and would want to compete one day.” WantChildrenSaidMotherFatherNamesSportsEnjoyDangerousCarGrewInvolvedOne DayGrew UpDriversRacingSoloCompetingRacing DriverDangerous Sports Author:Liz Halliday
“Determination is number one! You have to be trained physically. You have to have a good mental attitude - wanting it and enjoying the thrill of going fast. There is a certain level of aggression with competing at professional racing level but you have to control it as it is a high reaction, fast sport.” CertainSportsEnjoyLevelsNumbersAttitudeDeterminationReactionsGood ManRacingAggressionThrillCompetingMental Attitude Author:Liz Halliday
