Oscar’s time out: Elevating cash for charity

A short time again, we bought an e mail from a woman named Jess. Jess mentioned that her son Oscar watches all of our YouTube movies and would completely love to satisfy me and the crew.

Jess additionally instructed us within the e mail that Oscar suffers from Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Firstly, we had been fairly thrilled that there was truly an everyday viewer of our channel, not to mention someone that wished to satisfy the remainder of the crew.

However secondly, we thought this may be an excellent alternative to not solely meet Oscar and organise a enjoyable time out with him, but it surely’d even be the proper likelihood to boost some cash for charity.

So we put our heads collectively, shot off just a few emails and got here up with an thought for a enjoyable time out for Oscar.

The legends at Porsche Australia flicked us the keys to a Porsche 992 911 GT3 and a 992 911 GTS to make use of for Oscar’s day, Queensland Raceway booked us some observe time and our resident race driver, Chris Atkinson, joined us for some sizzling laps and to assist out with our drag race.

For those who’re feeling much more beneficiant, you may open the video on YouTube and click on on the ‘Thanks’ button to donate somewhat extra to the trigger. Each cent is tremendously appreciated!

We snuck as much as Oscar’s home within the GT3 to shock him and choose him up for the massive time out – he didn’t know something about what we had been doing or what we had deliberate.

Oscar climbed into the GT3 and the chatterbox revealed he knew extra about automobiles than all of us mixed!

Our subsequent cease was Alborz’s home the place Oscar had the prospect to crawl into and throughout Alborz’s assortment of automobiles. We gave him the duty of selecting a automobile that we may take with us to our subsequent cease McDonalds, but in addition on to Queensland Raceway the place we had a drag race deliberate with our two Porsches.

Maccas noticed Oscar meet the girls and boys in blue, giving him an opportunity to take a look at the Kia Stinger freeway patrol automobile, play with a set of hand cuffs and throw his mum below the bus for allegedly operating a pink gentle the week earlier than.

Oscar additionally had the prospect to gather his lunch from the drive-thru in Alborz’s Lamborghini Huracan Performante, which he picked from Alborz’s storage somewhat earlier.

After we arrived at Queensland Raceway, Atko set some lap occasions for the GT3 and GTS earlier than we put Oscar within the automobile for a sizzling lap with the terrifying rally racer.

Oscar’s day was capped out with an opportunity to host a drag race video with me. Oscar did an excellent job introducing and becoming a member of in.

My final hope was to demolish Alborz’s Lamborghini with both the GT3 or GTS, however sadly it didn’t pan out. After the GTS was knocked out in a head-to-head with the GT3, the GT3 misplaced twice in opposition to the Performante (by the smallest margin on one event!).
