Well Guys....Its been a blast, but................

[NTEL]

......all good things must come to an end

Although I'd already decided not to compete in DTEC again and would be concentrating on the Future Classics Series, recent developments have made my mind up to retire from competing in motorsport for good.

The last 7 years have been brilliant and I've met some great people. I hope to still see most of you on a regular basis and be a regular face in the paddock.

Ironically the car has never been in better shape following the latest round of improvements. I'll be testing it in April, one last time, and once I'm sure it is a class winning car and as good as it can be, it will be going up for sale.

Thanks for being gentle with me lads

See you soon.

I don't believe it. Take a pill Dave, you'll feel better in the morning

Your Bloo*y Joking ain't you. You will be sorely miss on and off track. I'll give you a bell later in week.

[Guillotine]

Well if it ain't fun its time to go...but park the car up for a while....you may want it back!
Always welcome in the paddock DC. With or without a lid.

[NTEL]

Thanks for the kind words lads. Unfortunately it's not by choice, I have a bit of a health issue. It can and will be fixed but with Dot nearly croaking it last year and now my issues I've had to make some hard decisions.

Hope all is well Dave.
If your'e not on the Grid it will be good to see you in the paddocks

You have shaped a few of my life long Motorsport memories! I will never forget the look you gave me after Cadwel 2009!!

Hiya Dave.
I sincerely hope everything is OK and you are on the road to being fully mended. I also hope you will re-consider when you have sorted any issues you have had.
You would be a big miss in any motorsport arena you care to race in..

Best Wishes.
Neil and Lisa.
