SPONSORSHIP - Fantastic - I will sponsor his first pair of long trousers, an upgarde on his catapolt and the cusion on his seat to allow him to look over the stearing wheel. All credit too the kid however, I'm not too sure if I'm comfortable with a 15 year old lad at the wheel of a racing car! am I thinking right? - he should have another couple of years carting I think.

Interesting thraed in that it shows some maverick personalities might be joining the series. And interesting to see how next season unfolds.

My comment earlier has perhaps been taken too literally - I was just showing my full support for 'the kid' - he's a nice bloke with loads of natural talent and he will definately be worth watching next season! (ok I am a little biased but nowt new there)

Good Luck Mickey

Cool another, I've been waiting for a long time to see a V8 wedge in action, and it will be even more interesting to see a hungry young racer behind the wheel. Although it will remove some of the pish taking opportunities from Iain the current youngster at the ripe old age of 24 !!!

There is a good amount of ribbing between all the drivers especially when you have a pony tail.

we've got everything from youngsters to grandfathers out on the grid so its a good mix..


so Mick come on down, and have fun....


can you go on proper test sessions yet?
