Thanks for the feedback.

It's great to feature the epitomy of successful clubman motorsport, especially as the grassroots of the sport rarely get any limelight.

I done a few other pieces which will be seen next year, on other very interesting drivers and cars.

The McGimpsey family, and their fleet of home brew would be some read too.

article on the McGimpsey's would be very interesting..... these guys are the backbone of club motorsport, always thinking of innovate things to do themselves too..

i'm clueless on doing anything with my hands, enjoy trying to steer cars... but for folk that can do both i have upmost respect
