Default ##BIG BIG RESPECT TO MARTIN AND LEE##



Big respect to both of you for everything you did in the Gumball.
Not just after seeing a tiny bit of what i am sure was a few days that have a BIG impretion on you both, But for doing everything along the way including the gearbox saga in Paris and the eventful crash at the end.

It is things like this being on TV that make me feel proud to drive my car and for people to see what our cars are capable of.

Martin
I know that you are in full swing with the resserection of Car 57, but i hope this being on TV will make you want to do it again next year..........bigger and better

Lee aka Dane Bowers
The shot of Martins Car skidding across the road had me wincing as i know what the outcome was
I hope you put the demons of that event behind you and if Martin does do the Gumball again, I hope you will co-pilot him again

Big respect to both of you


Thats my deep and meaning ful post of 2004 done I hope people understand what i was trying to say

Was great to see Lee at Combe yesterday - real hard to believe how bad things were only a few weeks ago - must take a lot of determination to be getting that well again so quickly.

Something like "None of the common Ferrari's and Porches etc"

was on last night, and seen porkie and Martin get interviewed, I thought the program was good really, as i thought it may just be one of them programs which just glorified or concentrated on the crashes, its on next Sat and sun as well. What i thought was well funny was the mountie calling the NYPD car sad coonts cos he did that last year, i was pissing my self, some proper nice cars tho, and it showed car 57 a few times as well which was good. Likewise tho i was wincing when they showed martins car skidding, but nice to know all involed are on road to recovery and all is well tho, so big up
