Oddly enough, I was watching a programme last night about Ferrari and Maserati racing and who should win the race but Peter Hardman!

Now that Marcus Marshall is well known, i should add him to my list. We raced together in Club Cars, I had a Datsun 1600 and he had a Mazda RX4.

My Dad raced against Stirling Moss once in the mid 80s. Sir Stirling was driving a Elva BMW against all the Scottish Clubmans.
I've driven against Nathan Kinch, he isnt that famous, just has a rich dad to foot the bill! I signed Allan McNish to drive our Citroen 2cv at Mondello 24hrs! Phone up 4 months before the race said he had another offer! Roock Racing Porsche 911GT1 at Le Mans! The next year he won the race with the factory Porsche!!! |

Don't believe you!! It's not sideways enough!!!!
Then again, looking more closely, it does look like he's got a drift on. People I've worked with, and wish to name drop: Whizzo (of course). And many others who have the talent to go all the way to the top. Including Adam Carroll, Danny Watts, Tim Mullen, among others and past masters. I once raced in a charity kart race pre-British GP and the superstar opposition included the likes of Dan Weldon, Lewis Hamilton, and Darren Turner. Needless to day, I got blitzed as I'm no kart racer, I've been doing saloons for far too long, but it was fun. Rob |

On a BRDC Training Day, I was lucky (?) to be driven 4 laps around the GP Circuit at Silverstone by David Leslie in company with Alain Menu, Will Hoy and, sorry, one other BTCC driver. Going down Hangar Straight from the passenger seat, the car alongside had its right mirror tucked in behind ours, and I could only see the rear window of the car in front. David stated that he was 1 inch off that cars rear bumper!!!
