The Motorsport UK Drag Racing Season is finally underway and ,as the current British champion, I'm lookinf forward to taking on my racetrack rivals to defend my title.My dad bought me my first junior dragster when I was eight, which is the minimum age you need to be to race, and I've been competing ever since.
I'm lucky enough to compete in some of the top drag racing events in the UK and Europe with my brother Damion, who is 11, and together we're known as the ODYSSEY Battery Drag Racing Team. I absolutely love the feeling I get on the racetrack. There's nothing like it and the feeling of winning a race is just incredible.
I compete in a half-scale junior dragster, which goes from 0-60mph in under three seconds. It's a fantastic car, and I know it's going to be another action-packed season!The world's biggest cycling event kicks off in Copenhagen, Denmark. It covers over 3,300 km. It ends in Paris on 24 July.Get ready to laugh, as people across the world are encouraged to share their favourite jokes.
