No problem for Lee Caroline; he is still the best ever driver to race a Tuscan.

...........hmmmm
Better than Michael Caine.............
Better than Steve Guglielmi..........
Better than Martin Short..............


and bearing in mind that David Mason does not have the same financial package as Lee......hmmmmm..........

I suppose time will tell..........he is certainly ahead of the game at this point in the season......

I nearly pi$$ed myself when I read that !!!! Are you joking, what about the likes of BVR, and has already been mentioned Chucky and Shorty. Last season Rob 'Rocket' Urquhart beat Lee to the rookie of the year award and beat him hands down in most races and that was a budget where a shoe string looked fat !! Lee is a nice bloke and a good driver he is not however in the same class as the guys mentioned at the begining of my post.

Still good luck to him as long as Baldrick doesn't win the championship !!

Now...Darran.........don't be mean!!!!!!!!

Now I know it's a well known fact that we are David Mason fans... and I still think that with some money.............any money ....he would walk the Championship....

However....I think that B.S.is doing a sterling job this year!!!!!!and if, by any amazing chance, he should manage to get in front of Lee and David....well...good luck to him...

Look forward to seeing you at Rockingham?????

//P// not being mean well okay maybe a little ………….. though Ben has improved if he wins a race god the rest of the drivers should hang their heads in shame !! I had thought that Ben would have his car in the Heineken livery this season given that his car has in the past been able to reach parts of the track no other cars can and he has allegedly not been too shy at ‘putting’ it where other drivers can’t afford to !! ……. still if it makes for interesting racing then that’s what really counts.

Would be good to have a reunion race where the lives of JCW, BVR, Chucky, Shorty, Charlotte Osborn etc. all make a come back now that would make for a blinder of a race esp if it was held at a track like Spa or the GP circuit at Brands. mmmmmm it was a nice dream

Yeah will be at Rockingham hope to see you there, will have to get you a ‘proper’ flag instead of that CDL thing

edited to say will only be there on the Sun as racing the Marcos at Snetterton on the Sat - leading the championship and coming 2nd in the Wilhire 9hr, happy days !!!!

..........I'll have you know that I made those flags with my bare hands!!!!!!!
....and considering that they are the only ones I see being waved...at least lil ol Mid Essex make the effort!!!!!!
Anyways, the commentators seem to like them....

Good Luck on the Saturday with the Marcos...go get 'em....

//P// the ref to proper flags wasn’t aimed at your needle work skills but rather that they didn’t have TopCats or the TopCats logo on them. I’m sure that the work-womenship on the flags is above beyond all reproach
