Agreed - the old website entry list must be well out of date and would be so much more interesting if it was kept up to date- or the long promised new website was finished.
Only 4 months to go!

Carl, once again many thanks for your safety boat work for the Cowes Events -
I never had you down as a timekeeper.
Should Chris and Laura be concerned?

We've just received an update picture from Team Hendricks on their new build. Their completely new design is believed to have some pretty unique features, so we're looking forward to seeing how this one develops.

We're delighted to be able to publish our Preliminary Entry List today. Please note that these are just the teams that are happy to make themselves known at this time - we do have quite a few more who are staying 'under cover' for just a little bit longer!

Another 'in-build' shot. This time it's the Vector V40R about to start internal rigging.

Who'd have thought a petrol V10 would become the engine of choice for long distance racing? I'm all for it, they sound much better than diesels

With you on that one Paul, I thought the Cougar Viper with the Ilmors was racing, I know it is for sale-dont normally like blow up boats but that is some bit of kit.
