Day 1, blowing 25 knots but slowly dying throughout the day. First race, i bombed on the start, finished 18th. Second race, everything lined up, had all the speed in the world and I got a race win. Won by over 90 seconds, best feeling! Third race, the wind got very patchy and the lighter guys were getting through the lulls much better than I was. Finished 20th... Sitting 12th overall, so plenty of room to improve. Windy again today, and im aiming for a few more top 10 finishes to try and move up the leaderboard.

Day 3 - Brutal day. Tough mentally. First race, i was in the lead and then dropped the ball to finish 3rd. Second and third races were tough as they come, finished 20th and 22nd. Dropped back to 12th overall, but a rest day tomorrow will give me some chance to rest and recover for the final 4 races.

Day 4 & 5 - the wind got light over here in malaysia and I suffered, being a lot heavier than my opposition. Ive finished the week in 18th position, but im still happy with the few races that I did well in. Now im stepping off the RSX, and onto some formula gear so that i dont have to worry about my weight anymore!

Well done Jock. The other competitors must be tiny as I wouldn't call you weighty. So are you looking at racing Formula gear?
