I won (well, came second)!

Entered a local radio station competition recently and was surprised to be called and told I was one of the 5 to go through to the final.

So today I met Jason Plato (SEAT racing champion) and came second in the PS2 raceoff! :) I won a piece of one of his cars signed by him - will be delivered sometime next week! Though Ive no idea what to do with it! Heh. He said its probably the door!! :rotfl:

Not an amazing prize but better than nothing. First prise was a day at silverstone with a driving experience. Kinda wanted that but missed out by 6 seconds (nerves got to me!).
Being bored is so boring Im bored of it... :rotfl:

    Heh - Im not sure what it is but Jason did think it was the door he signed! Not sure. Will get a call this week sometime.

    Could sell it and get the racing day anyway I hope. Though no idea how as if it is a door it would be hard to post! ;)
