From a person here watching Simon has put in a big effort. Realistically he is the only non fully sponsored driver in the top 20 ... a major effort when the top guys have superb motors and special batteries

Was that Simon marshalling Hara's car in the 3rd A-main?

Nice footwork for a big fella

He had to stop for a cheeseburger chaser on the way to marshall the car. No wonder Hara lost the title.

Just kidding spider pig....... Well done on a top result.

Where did he finish in the end?
