Italian term or phrase: è in quel giorno che è nata
G.G., a 8 anni sul primo kart: è in quel giorno che è nata la sua grande passione per la velocità.

Sorry for the weird question. I don't need a literal translation of this part of the sentence. I need to translate the idea in a style that might appear on a specialist magazine. You sportsmen and women there - do you have any ideas ?:-)
