ゴルフ

今日は日本での滞在は最終日。何時もお世話になってる紅月の高橋会長と、始めて一緒にゴルフに行ってきました。高橋会長はメチャメチャうまいと聞いていたので、プレイする前からかなりの緊張。コースに着いていざ練習をすると、玉が当たらず＆上がらず嫌な予感・・・。実際にラウンド中もボロボロで１２８もたたいちゃいました！？！（泣）インディーカーだったら飛び入り参加でも余裕ですが、ゴルフは才能が無い事を改めて実感！？！いや才能ではなく経験かな・・・？！？って言う事にしておきます。でも、今日のゴルフじゃ〜納得いけないので、いっぱいアメリカで練習して、また戻ってきてリベンジですね！！

It was my last day in Japan before I head home tomorrow. Since I have never played golf with Mr.Takahashi from Kougetsu, I finally got a chance to play with him today. I heard from numerous sources about his skills playing golf and I was really nervous playing with him since I am not that good at it yet. Well...I haven't played for weeks and when I went to the driving range to pratice...I thought about getting back in the car to go home. I couldn't hit the ball straight...and would not go up in the air at all!! I guess it's unlike Indy...I can't just show up and do well. Neverthless, we started to play and it was a horrible round for me. My score was 128...one of the worst score for a while. Well...I guess I don't have any talent but will definately need to gain more experience playing.

昨日の夜からインディーの某チームからベースセットを出してくれないかと言う話があったりで連絡の取り合いでもドタバタ。同時進行に違うシリーズの方でも色々と話が前進し始めてて、アメリカに戻ったら戻ったで忙しくなりそうです。でも、やっぱり今回のインディーでは結果は胸をはって言える結果ではありませんが、内容はとても評価されて今後につながる事は間違いないと思います。ではでは、戻って早く話が決めれるように全力で頑張ります！！

After playing golf, I needed to do some work contacting the teams from Indy Cars. I have got some offer to test for some team to help out with their set up. I am not sure if it will lead to anything yet...but I think I was able to show my skills and potential during this year's Indy 500 and I really think it is paying off now. I really hope to be back in the car by end of the year and it is time now to work on sponsorship deals for 08!!
