2nd place in Qualifying, bad race results.
Free practise and qualifying were very good for me last weekend, but the races were not good enough.
The first race I finished 5th after my teammate Rene Busscher spun in front of me; we both lost several
places and we finished 4th and 5th.
The 2nd (wet) race looked extremely good for both of us; halfway the race we were in 2nd and 3rd position,
but in the last lap of the race I braked 200 meters before the 'S'curve, but there was oil and I spun off.
I did drive the fastest lap in the race, so overall I'm satisfied with the result!

August 7th, 10.50
Fastest laptime in morning practise!
I'm very satisfied after my first practise session after 1 year of not driving.
1st position in free practise; 0,3 sec. gap with number 2.
Speed is still here, makes me happy!

Recovering and 2010
My recovery after the crash at August 15th goes slow!
My neck muscles are too weak to carry my head a
full day without troubles, not even mentioning driving
a racecar with 3G on your neck.
So.. 2010 doesn't look to good for me; not nice for
the company I work for, nor for me.
But I do look forward to the 2010 season and talked
to John Moritz about competing in the Dutch
Supercar Challenge in the supersport 2 class with
Marcos.
Possibilities are there.. car is waiting for me, now
I have to recover fast enough and find the Budget.
If you are interested in my project, please contact
me; info at the contact page.

Race 4, Zandvoort, August 15th
I qualified very good, in 3rd position, 0,2 seconds
behind pole position.
The start of the first race was very bad because
I seemed to be sleeping and missed it completely,
but after a good race I finished in 3rd place.
The 2nd race started at least as bad as the first
race; a Saker driver (Oscar Wilkens) wasn't able
to get away from the start grid and I hit the back
of his car driving 150 km/ hour. Car is totally
destroyed and I ended up in the hospital.
I'm doing good at the moment!
The 2009 is over; we have to built a new car.
