Probably a bigger deal, congratulations on joining the BRDC! Rubbing shoulders with the greats now.
Cheers! Has been my biggest ambition for aaaages. It’s special for my old man in particular too, he’s not really a typical racing Dad but it’s a really special achievement for him to enjoy with me (particularly as I’d never have been able to have done it without him) and he’s loved being in the clubhouse before with our friends who are membersAnnoyingly/amusingly the club actually phoned me up in about 2014 to invite me to join and I got a very apologetic phone call about five minutes after I sent my racing CV informing me that they thought I’d reached the qualifying criteria but actually I hadn’t
Even after that every time I’d achieved a qualifying result, I went back and checked to find they’d tweaked the qualifying matrix and a previous one had dropped off
In some ways it’s actually nice to have done it the hard way!!

Speculation says;
WSR - Oliphant and Jelley is pretty much a given
TD - either Neal or Rowbottom (who has denied it...)
Excelr8 - Proctor or Thompson
PMR - Thompson or Proctor (or Rick Parfitt Jr)
Hard - Hamilton
Didn't see that one coming with Cammish. Regardless of if you like the Dynamics stable or not, Dan is one of the top level drivers in the championship.
Could this lead to a reshuffle of seats anywhere, either as Dynamics get someone in from elsewhere or as another team tries to get Dan in their car?
Wonder if Dynamics is going to be Shedden/Neal or Neal/Neal and this might be Matt's last year?

Has to be budget-related surely? Can't be down to performance as he's more than held his own and with a bit of luck could have already been champion.Shows how tough things are out there in motorsport land, I guess...

I think I'd put my money on the Neal/Neal option.Could this lead to a reshuffle of seats anywhere, either as Dynamics get someone in from elsewhere or as another team tries to get Dan in their car?
