    I know for sure that where ever he is, prob sliding sideways on a nice gravel road in his fav car, right now he is having a couple of drinks celebrating Mints awesome achievement and i can hear him saying, see it is for real, and yes i know ROOZ is a awesome community as I have felt it myself, the support is awesome, even though people say "its just a game" its not just a game its a great place to be :)

    Congrats Mint, Eveyone at ROOZ believed that you could take out the international GT Academy title and the amount of guys that stayed up to watch the live feed shows what an amazing community we have here. I think everyone here wishes to be a professional racecar driver but to see another ROOZ member get that opportunity is the next best thing. I hope we get to see you driving Godzilla around Mt Panorama for real in the near future.

    Congratulations Mint, can only imagine the fantastic feeling of standing on the podium and thinking of what is about to come. Just awesome.
    Finding out you got the win absolutely made my day, kept me happy thinking how life can sometimes reward you when you just let yourself believe and go for it with all you've got.
    If you ever get the feeling that you're carrying more ballast than expected, is because all of us are riding with you living the dream through you.
    All the very best mate, #RacingDriverFound :thumbsup:.

    Congratulations Matty. Our week long battle was intense and unforgettable... It's gonna be weird not sharing a room with you any more mate. If you like, I can email you some recordings of me snoring.
    All the best, go get em!

    Will take you directly to the mention.
    Can't link it any other way as the site keeps auto embedding the video.

    What format did you use @Clevohead ?
    I can't find any option that won't automatically embed a TY link...

    I typed "HERE" then highlighted it, then pressed the link button up on the tool bar (Chain link with green plus sign) then pasted the url in the text window that popped up, giving the word "HERE" the link.

    Hey everyone :) I can't begin to tell you how much all these messages mean to me!! As you are all aware, my life has been turned upside down with Australia doing what they do best, celebrating a sporting achievement!! So I will finally have a chance next week to say thank you to ROOZ, the way I would like to, before heading back to the UK to start the Nismo program. :thumbsup:
