Car Racing...

[TomLinley]

Other than boating next year, I start racing in Britcar and the Dunlop Sports Maxx Cups. Thought I would post a few pic's of our team and my car, as it might be of interest to some on here. If anyone wants any pit passes next year, then feel free to send me a PM and will be able to organise it.

The plan is to race the Ford Focus ST in the Dunlop Sports Max Cup series throughout the year, and then to race in the endurance heats of Britcar, including the 24hr at Silverstone, in our Modified Nissan 350z. This requires to share the driving, to which family friends; Tom Chilton (BTCC Touring Cars) & Max Chilton (GP2) will make up the remainder of the drivers.

If anyone is near Brands Hatch mid December, we have a testing weekend with the focus and a BMW M3. Send me a PM and will organise entry.

Do you know Henry from 911virgin.com he raced Britcar a few years ago

[TomLinley]

I know of the 911virgin team, however it will be my first year of Britcar, so dont know him personally.

Been to the 24 hr at silverstone a couple of times supporting him
I take its back on again then this year

[TomLinley]

Yes previously they have run it in less time as of the "credit crunch" However the hope and plan is for it to run the full 24hrs next year.

We will be testing a new BMW M3 through the winter as this may be better than the Nissan, Im finding the 350z, although looks really good, because of its engine size pushes it right into cars that are much faster such as the Moslers etc. Hence we may build an M3 for the 24hr.
