daniellexxxx agony auntShe oviously loves you very much and doesnt want to see you hurt let alone the worst. If i was he id feel the same you almost come to a dead end so shes scared it will happen again. If it's what you really want to do talk to her and tell her you will be more careful and you wont get hurt again. If she doesnt understand then it's up to you what you do then.

Good luck.

You could have died. She nearly lost you. It's no wonder she wants you to quit.

Sit down and talk to her about it.

You have to decide what's more important, her or racing.

I'm married to a soldier so I can see her point of view but she knew you were a racer when she met you didn't she?

She has to either learn to stand by you or walk away.

Talk her through all the safety stuff in your car and all the rules to protect you. Reassure her.

You both have to make a decision on what you want and then stick to it.

Good Luck!! xx
