Yep, a fine effort - especially round the proper Brands GP circuit as well..
Looking forward to seeing how the series is this year, when it comes to Thruxton in July (if it's still on teh calendar that is??) |

Yeah well done, from the times a tight fight, although i must say it was probably more of a race on the way out of the car park as all those weekend directors try to get out the gate in their mercs!
Come on that series is still a joke only now it can`t even get proper drivers! makes me laugh!!! Farc. |

Thanks all...
So I'm not a proper driver then? Nor's Gino Ussi who has raced ARP F3, Formula Renault and other similar series in the past (and raced against Mika Hakkinen), and what about Steve Warburton who's been racing various saloon cars like the MGF Cup and the Rover Turbo series, or former Legends driver Ben Lewis, or former ARP F3 racer Steve Young???? Give us a break please. Just because we have proper jobs on the side doesn't mean we're not proper drivers. I'm a director of a company too but please don't tell me we're not proper drivers (And I don't drive a Merc). |

Good on ya Gideon.
It's good to see that the courage of your convictions has paid off in the best possible way - a race win. Whatever the status of FPA in 12 months, you have started in exactly the right way to get yourself noticed for when driver decisions get made at the end of the season. I shall be watching the following rounds with interest. Agree with you about most of the drivers you mentioned - Steve Warburton in particular is a seriously press-on competitor. But I worry about someone jumping from Leg Ends straight into FPA. That seems a step too far in my book. |

Yeah, Stick up for the series. It looked a shame when it went bottom-up over the winter, but the series looks as good as ever. There are some good drivers out there this year. Teach 'Farc' a lesson, and beat 'em all again next time!! Good Luck
