surely going on a diet or having a big shit before the race would have been less hassle?

Almost as hardcore having a copy of his Lotus motorsport rear clam shell made up BUT with out any of the air vents in it as these disturb the air flow and the rear wing is not as effective because of the dirty air...

Congratulations Sean!

I see Mr Birley was there... how was the escort going? Different Class to Sean I presume?
Should be seeing that out in the DTRC soon I think.

Excellent result Sean

2 x 1st's in class and a 2nd overall early on in the season should bag some good points.

I had my spies out watching and reporting back Compbrake were there looking to sign up a driver to sponsor for the season... which they duly did

And as markb_s1 was asking about Rob - I found a pic

current engine is a 1.8. The next engine is a 2.0 and is VERY controversal to say the very least if anyone knows about K-series engines and Elises/Exiges. Its 'King K' built by Simon Erland.

Don't forget Sean is giving away as much 100bhp+ to some of the cars out there!!!! I can't wait for him to get the proper engine! hopefully he will romp home!

Shonky can properly drive man!!!!!!!!!!!!
