So we... shot a set halfway through the session and everyone missed their new tyre run like you guys at the end of the session so we missed our like our second set but luckily we had the learning of that first set because you know even comparative to like Anton who was on a used tyre like my new tyre lap was you know a good four tenths away from him and I'm like like looking at the data and I'm like it looks like he's literally just got a softer tyre you know and you know it's not true because you've got a better condition tyre than what he's got but you're looking at it and you're like You couldn't ask me to drive, you know, apply the throttle like that and get away with it or go into the corner like that.

Yeah.

At the end of the day too, like we're all – that close I feel like if we all just hopped in the same car, it'd be way closer again than what it is.

So it's like – and, you know, like co-driving and that sort of thing, you hop in someone's car, you know, you're within a tenth or two, just hop it in and they're driving it all the time.

Yeah.

So it's like when you're – when the, you know, someone you've driven with on the front row and you're P20, it's like, well, hang on a minute, I'm not actually – You know, like, you know, find that last little bit.

Yeah, people can have their differences and be better on their day, but I feel like when a car's good, it's making lap time most of the time where you don't have to find those last little increments and that sort of gets you halfway there.

Yeah.

I- is, is always gonna know that it's never as bad as what I went through when I had cancer.

cancer.So no matter how much I punish myself on a bike, no matter how hot it gets, no matter how sweaty it gets, no matter how dehydrated, tired, if I can keep moving forward, I know that at some point that that's gonna stop.

I'm gonna have a beer and a steak and I'm gonna sit down and I'm gonna pat myself on the back and go, "Well done," and everything's gonna be all right again.

But I think the, the, the resilience, I think if we, if we look back, we're so busy all the time looking three steps ahead of where we want to get to or how do I get to my next goal, that we don't look at the 15, 20, 30, 40 years experience that we have behind us.

You know, you didn't end up in the situation that you're in now looking at those three steps down the road by accident.

You got there because of everything that you've already been through.

So to, to put that in another terminology, you don't just rock up at the start line of Race Across America.

Mm
