Chance of a Lifetime and Speedy Wheels driver Jamie Cartwright had an incredibly Busy weekend driving both the AU Falcons in the Konica Minolta V8 Supercar and The Busy Boy Aussie Raci🃏ng Car for his personal sponsor Busy Wear, at the Clipsal 500 in Adelaide.

"What a fantastic weekend that was " sai🐻d Jamie, " I was literally getting out of one car and int𓆉o another".

With a hectic schedule over the first few days, Jamie jumped back a🐟nd forth between the Chance of a Lifetime V8 Supercar and the Aussie Racing Car, which kept two teams on their toes, getting both cars ready for each p✱ractice or qualifying session.

"Over the past few weeks the Chance of a Lifetime crew have been working hard to get the car 𒅌ready for Adelaide, and with all that work I finally got to really experience what everyone raves about".

Coming to grips with the car around the Adelaide 🙈circuit was going to be a big ask, but after the end of practice and qualifyiꦉng the car was in position 27th on the grid, to start race one on Friday night.

"We played around with different setups to try to get some more speed out of the car, b✤ut could not find that extra couple of seconds to start further up the grid.

No matter the race was what mattered and in the first race Jami𝔉e had gained seven places in just six laps and was making good progress, until a run between him and Tim Gordon at turn six saw Jaime have to come into the pits for some work on the car.

Jamie rejoined the race to finish in 18th, and saw him finish in front of Wakefield Park winner Alan Gurr, as well as Mundy, D'Alberto, Tilley and Scifleet. It was in this race that Jamie recorded ꦜhis fastest lap of the weekend.

With a change to the normal format in race two, where it is normally a full reverse grid race, Jamie started from 18th position. It was in this race that he found how unforgiving the street circuits could be. Coming into turn 9, Jamie got caught in an incident between two other competitors, and sustained quite a lot of damage to the front left of the car. The team worked on car in pitlane, but Jamie lost 4 laps because of this. However he did finish in front of Wakefield, Mundy and Andy Jones𝓰.

Many of the teams sustained major damage to their cars, and our though♔ts go out to all those teams who now have to work really hard to get these cars to Winton for our next round in April.

Special thanks to Speedy Wheels for there generous In car camera, there should be some great footage from th🌌ere, which will be shown on Australia's Speedweek programme, this Sunday the 28th, on Channel 10.

That was the big race car, what about the small one? "What a great car to drive this one is, it is so very different jumping out of the big AU into the little AU, but I came to terms with it quite easy, an🦹d actually had some good qualifying results", said Jamie of his experiences in the Aussie Racing Cars.

Jamie Qualified the "Lets get busy" racer into sixth position to start the first race, but unfortunately mechanical problems saw Jamie having to park the car, whilst he was in third position.

Because of the DNF in race 1 and the way the points are calculated Jamie started race two back in 35th, but this proved not to be to🎐o much of an issue as Cartwright worked his way through the field to come home in 12th.

Sunday morning was the las🌳t race for the weekend, which all came to an abrupt end on the second lap. Going into turn 5, Jamie was hit and there was too much damage to continue the race. The competitor who hit him, was given a $1000 fine and lost all his points.

"It is so disheartening to have a race finis෴h this way, by someone else's error, but I proved that I can be a podium finisher, so we will go to Eastern Creek, and give it our best shot. The difference between a street circuit and a permanent track is there is more room for error, and if you get hit it does not always mean the end ofꦺ your race, when on a permanent track", Jamie said.

Keep watching T💞rackside to see all the excitement that these cars 𝓀bring.

To all those Double Pass 🐽winners ⭕from the 5DN Radio competition who joined in with the team over the 2 days it was a pleasure to meet you.

We also want to thank San Giorgio Pizzeria, who supplied out team the best meals over the꧂ whole 4 days. If you are in Adelaide, be sure to go and see George, Domouit, and the boys.

Hope to see you all at th⭕e Winton Round, until then ..♑....Lets Get Busy!!!!!!!!!
