Soap Box Derby TV3


TV 3 Pictures

On Monday at 6.30am in the morning the P.E.S racing team had to go to school. We had to go to school because we had to get filmed by a TV crew. It was really interesting for me and the crew. All of the driver's had a go at driving, it was really fun. I am a driver as well. There were some other school's there too. Like King's school, Sacred Heart, Bailey Road and Churchill Park School, Parrnell Primary and plus us which was Pt England School. Then at 8.00 o clock we got filmed by TV3 and I was the one who had to get in the derby and drive it, but before I did that I had to go and tell the man what my name was. So then I told him and he said to me "well then hop into the car and go and wait in there while I go and get my word's ready". Then we would get started, then they got ready and started to film and when he said "and here is the driver Shontal" I had to look back and wave at the camera. I felt nervous and when I turned my back I had the giggles and then he said "3.....2.....1.... and RACING !!!!" Then I was off. When I was going down the hill the Pit crew who was Sela and Destiny ran down with me and then they said BREAK !!! very loudly. It hurt my ear's, then I got out of the derby and I was hiding my face because I was ashamed of myself because I would be all over the news. But now some people have already said "Hey Shontal I saw you on news driving that little go kart" and I said ''Yeah it was lot's of fun."

Then I went home and when I got home my mum and Nan goes we both saw you on the TV and it was really cool to see that people saw me on TV but kind of embarrassing but it was really fun for me and the crew......
