If he completes all the rounds, then i think Martin Crass has a good chance. He only missed out last season, as he missed the first round at Snetterton.
Anyway, good luck to everyone, and am looking forward to an excellent seasons racingthumbup

OK Chris...I'll take the bait as I have the biggest GOB biggrin

Anyone on this list mate (Brands List thread)
If they're not on the list they're losing 50 points from a 250 point max season, so will be VERY hard to win if not here.
Reliability will be a factor, but just about everyone whos raced has won, but you'd have to say that Class B is likely (due to numbers). 10 in A means 9 to beat. 4 in B means 3 to beat, and C only has 2 starters so 1/2 points. So on form and odds, Tim has the best shot as he's won before and has a good car. Me (Andy R) as I'm competitive in a 1 out of 4 count but as we're off to Nuburgring this year its all for fun. Dave C also has won before and has an excellent chance with a very good car.
Class A hard to say. Perry has a very fast car, Martin (as said), Keefy will be quick in his new A car as will Deano. Mike Saunders! If he does all year will be megga etc etc.
BUT...you have to be in it to win it...you also have to finish, so until Rounds 3-4 nothing is clear. It'll all be up for grabs at Oulton I bet!

good shout Andy,
reliability is the key, to stand any chance you would have to finish every race, which is a pretty big ask these days! takes a lot of luck, i for one am going to battle for position regardless of class throught the race! and looking at the size of class A there is going to be loads to chase down, can't bloody wait!

my money would be on Mike, very well developed car and top driver,
no pressure then Mike wink
