05/02/10; Not long now folks!
There`s plenty of activity in the 22 team workshop & I can tell you that the Tar car has been re-bumpered, the Shale engine is waiting to be tuned and the bus is in its final stages of completion.
It`s been an expensive Winter both in terms of time AND money, the latter of which is an ongoing need. The Team are now frantically searching for the elusive "Money-tree"!! Of course, if there`s a generous benefactor out there we ARE contactable!!!!
18/01/10; The NEC proved to be a very busy time for the 22 team, what with live action on the new indoor oval on each of the 4 days & spending time on the BriSCA stand offering information about the sport to members of the public who looked to be enjoying themselves as they wandered around, admiring the static displays. Hopefully the fixture lists dished out won`t have found their way into the recycling bins today, but instead will have encouraged people to come & watch first hand!
The new Shale car was the first to invite the public into Hall 10, and it caused quite a stir. I only attended the Sunday sessions but was witness to many admiring looks & positive reactions to the final outcome of over a years` hard work by the Yarrow boys et al. It made me proud to be a part of the 22 team.
The newly constructed Oval was perhaps to big for Stock Car racing but every driver representing F1 & F2 racing did his bit to show BriSCA & themselves in the best light. Perhaps next year the organizers will allow them to suggest the parameters for the "track" though.
All in all an enjoyable event. Is it March yet!!?!!
January 1st 2010! Wow, it`s here!! The new Season will be here VERY soon too, and Will can`t wait to get out there & race again.
A couple of years back somebody said to me that 2010 is going to be Will`s year. The same person reiterated that in a New Year text, and since it`s time for a different name to be engraved on that big old trophy come September .......
YARROW FOR GOLD
