A fantastic milestone for our women in sim racing blogger Eliza Indriani as she hits her 52nd blog and 1 year at Simrace247, congratulations!
She has deserved every great moment she has achieved, our women in sim racing blogger Eliza Indriani hits her 52nd blog here at Simrace247 marking her first year. We are very proud of you Eliza for being such a great ambassador to sim racing, the community and female racers.
Hello and welcome to my 52nd blog! It’s been exactly 1 year! Can’t believe I reached the point where I’ll be writing my 52nd blog. A lot has changed since my first blog, I achieved a lot of things and I gained a lot of experience in sim racing.
Since I started blogging and partnering with Thrustmaster and Next Level Racing, my days are filled with competing, streaming, creating content for my social media, webinar with Unipin Indonesia, and more. It’s hard to run everything at once, I feel overwhelmed sometimes (or most of the time). I’m so happy to receive so many kind words and support from everyone around me. I really hope more to come; more lessons, more adventures, more fun!
I just started watching IRL races lately, I enjoyed it so far. I’m planning to visit some race tracks in the States this year. Hopefully I could visit Road America and Indy for GTWC, and Chicago Street Circuit for Nascar. These tracks are pretty close to me, and I’m so excited for Nascar Chicago. I can say this is my home track, looking forward to going to my first Nascar race in July!
Last week I had some races in GT4 and Skip Barber Race Series. For GT4 we were racing in Brands Hatch, it’s a fun yet a tricky track for me. I had a great time racing in the GT4, it felt good to be back driving the GT4 car. I had a good race, gained some iR and SR. Until next time, Brands Hatch!
I had some fun in Brands Hatch, but I must admit that I struggled racing in Chicago Street Circuit. I’m not familiar with this track, and I had to adjust the way I drive for Skippy. It wasn’t so hard going from GT4 to Skippy in my opinion, maybe because I wasn’t practicing enough for this series. I focused more on my race at Brands Hatch.
Although I struggled in the race, it was really fun to drive fast around the city of Chicago, my second home. I feel so attached to this city, it feels different when you’re racing at your home track. I just felt it when I was racing in the Chicago Street Circuit actually. This track is also the reason why I want to get into real racing. Sim racing and real racing in general is fun and has its own challenge. Hopefully I will be able to experience real racing one day!
Enjoy some nice shots by Adam Hedgecock of my second home, Chicago!
This Weekend I’ll be racing in Bathurst 12 with United Sim Team. It is my first Bathurst 12 on iRacing, looking forward to it. And after that, I’ll be racing in IMSA Endurance with Kirk. This is going to
be a long weekend, wish me luck for the race! I hope I could deliver a good result for the team. Sadly, I couldn’t do any regular stream this week. I have to practice for my upcoming endurance. See you this Friday for Bathurst 12, follow me on my socials to keep updated with my stream schedule.
So yeah, that’s all for this week’s blog. It’s been nice sharing my journey with all of you. Thank you for spending time reading at my blog, for showing up in chat, and more! I appreciate you all!
