Anthony’s wish was to take his family to Lakeside Park Motorway
The sun shone on a very special family day out at Lakeside Park. Anthony was joined by his wife Catherine and their family Isabella, Jasper and Kael; all of whom have a special connection with motorsports. What better way to spend precious family time together than watching the racing at the iconic Lakeside Park – the home of grassroots motorsport!
From a perfect vantage point overlooking the speedway, Anthony and his family watched a section of the epic endurance event that spanned the whole day. Kael timed one of the cars and worked out that, in the course of the event, it would do 280 circuits of the track! Incredible! Cars and trucks have been a big part of Anthony’s family life – from collecting Hot Wheels to rebuilding trucks and even competing in racing events.
