  Hello everyone,
Thumbs up 👍 to the  fast track team.
Rahil was very supportive. I didn't get the chance to attend the zoom classes, but he made sure I had all the downloaded videos.
The hazard perception videos were so helpful. Without those videos I wouldn't have made it.
I'm glad I made it 🙌
Thank you FastTrack.
