Hi

I am looking to help out a race team for the 2008 season, I dont mind doing any sort of racing, I am based in Swindon, I have no transport, so if any teams either have people who work for them in Swindon, they could possible pick me up or if you are based near a train station.

I am 17 and go to Lackham college doing a first diploma in motorsport. I am looking at doing a full season, unpaid, I dotn mind doing any jobs as it is all experience and that is what I need to make my self stand out when I go and get a job.

Last year, I did a full season at castle combe and a few FPA meetings and did refulling at the 24 hour Britcar race.

You can either post on here or email me on james.dicks@ntlworld.com

I know of some race teams but sadly none anywhere near Swindon. I don't think it's a particulary good area for Motorsport. The only one I can think of is Synchro who are a group of Honda Employees who run the race team in their spare time at the factory. They used to do the BTCC until the end of 2006. They are planning to run in Britcar PS1 this season. Sadly I don't know any contact details but they may be your best bet.

You're pretty close to Castle Coombe, why don't you pop down there on the weekends and just hang around meeting the pitside/track people. Your more likely to get a break there than by sending someone an e-mail
