Slight issues with the allocation of No 1 for the 2007 Championship winners: Simon decided that he would leave the team and run in a Ferrari 360 so not wanting to be left out of the party, i am now running in another Ferrari 360 [which is obviously quicker!]

Obviously we cant have 2 x No 1 so i am either going to steal it or suggest that both Ferrari's run No 1/2 rather than No 1.

Or as one is Black and one is Silver we could both run No 1?

Wonder if JT will ask the MSA for special dispensation?

Neither of you should run with the 1 plate, especially if you are both in Division 2.

Mind you, I don't think anyone in sportscar racing really cares about the 1 plate - most prefer to run their 'lucky' number like bike racers. Peugeot are still running 7/8 in LMS, for example, while Virgo still run 96.

We are lucky to be in Division 2 rather than Div 4 or 5! But then let us see what 2008 is going to bring!

We do have a lucky number, it is No 1 and it will be very lucky this year.......

How about the number 0 - I think that's legitimate (didn't Damon Hill run with it in F1 one year). You could then boast "from hero to zero".

Or how about 111 (the Velocq Ferrari ran with number 888 in British GT in 2002, and the MST system crashed) - which is several times les than the car did!

Ahonen tongue out

The decision over who runs what is down to JT. We are just having some fun......so chill...cool

I think we should defo run 1/2 on both cars...or maybe run .25 and .75 with the quicker driver running the bigger number......so that will be on the black car then...........!!!!!!! smile

Wot ever...............

Your problem is that you have to do endurance racing cos it takes you half the race to get to speed!

We are running No 1 at Spa

you've got to be some egotistical tt to be jabbering on about wanting the whole world to know you won a class with 3 runners, two of whom were running cars with a cylinder down for half the season smile

Almost as bad as that prat in the Austin powers shirt at the Britcar dinner wink what was his name ?

It'll be good to see you out again Steve, having raced against Simon I can now see who won all the races for the team!

See you in Norfolk, anything you need bringing back from Thailand ?
