Postcard from Phuket: Bikini weekend with the girlfriends
I do travel quite often but it’s usually for work – last weekend however, I took a trip out to Phuket with seven other girlfriends for the sole purpose of hanging out and having fun.

Text and photos by Cheryl Tay
Fingers were crossed more tightly than ever for good weather at Bottle Tree Park on Sunday so the RaceWorks Elite Racing Series (RERS) and the RaceWorks On-road Championship Series (ROCS) could run a full race schedule.

Everyone was excited about the opening round in January and there were over 50 drivers for both the RERS and the RaceWorks On-Road Championship Series (ROCS) that run concurrently on the same day.

I was there for the opening round of the 2013 Super Taikyu Series and everything was going smoothly.. up until race day on Sunday.
